Spandex or elastane is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity (stretchability). It is stronger and more durable than rubber, its major plant competitor. It was invented in 1959 by DuPont chemist Joseph Shivers, and when first introduced it revolutionized many areas of the clothing industry. |
