Question:

is polyester (100%) absorbent?

i saw some microfiber terry that i thought i could use for making cloth diapers but i saw that its 100% polyester. it that absorbent? i dont think it islet me know what you know!!!

Answer:

Polyester doesn't absorb. Some people use microfiber as the lining to cloth diapers so the liquid is absorbed by the core and the surface stays dryer.
Polyester isn't absorbant at all! I don't think microfiber would be a good choice for cloth diapers. Although if you want to dust your floors the microfiber would make some awesome cloths because it will capture the dust. but no it will not absorb water (or pee).
Terry cloth refers to a type of cloth. Polyester is a COMPLETELY different type of cloth. I am confused as to how you could have seen Terry Cloth Polyester.
