Spandex, or lycra, is a synthetic fabric with a base, like or . Spandex, however, has unique properties that make it well suited to certain applications, such as sports apparel. Spandex is able to expand up to 600% and spring back without losing its integrity, although over time, the fibers may become exhausted. Unlike many other synthetic fabrics, spandex is a , and it is this fact that is responsible for the fabric's peculiarly qualities.

 

Polyurethanes are manufactured by causing two monomers to undergo a reaction that causes them to fuse into a single structure. Spandex was developed by Dupont in 1959, long after many other synthetic fibers developed by the same company. The new fabric was greeted with delight by the garment industry, which seizes upon any new invention in the textile field. Other uses of polyurethanes include foam and other materials that need to undergo stretching or compression while remembering a basic form.

Formerly, and compression garments were made with rubber, which was expensive, difficult to manipulate, and often irritating to the skin. Spandex replaced rubber in most of these applications, allowing women to wear garments that would adjust their shapes but still breathe, so that sweat and dirt didn't accumulate next to the skin. The sporting goods industry quickly picked up on the new fabric as well, seeing a potential for a flexible, breathing fabric.

Spandex is used in bathing suits, cycling shorts, surgical compression garments, and brassieres. In all of these applications, the ability to wick moisture and stretch is vital and makes a big difference to the wearer. For active individuals, spandex is a great alternative to natural fibers, which, while more comfortable, are also bulkier and less able to give with movement.

Spandex can irritate , because it contains some harmful chemicals. If skin irritation occurs, wear should be discontinued after verifying that the spandex product does not also contain rubber or latex, which are even more likely to irritate skin.
