Spandex, or elastane, is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity. It is stronger and more durable than rubber, its major non-synthetic competitor. It is a polyurethane-polyurea copolymer that was invented in 1959 by DuPont chemist Joseph Shivers. When first introduced, it revolutionized many areas of the clothing industry.
"Spandex" is a generic name and not derived from the chemical name of the fiber, as are most manufactured fibers, but an anagram of the word expands."Spandex" is the preferred name in North America; in many European countries it is referred to as "elastane".
The most famous brand name associated with spandex is Lycra, a trademark of Invista (formerly part of DuPont). Such is the prominence of the Lycra brand that it has become a genericized trademark in many parts of the world, used to describe any kind of spandex. Invista discourages such use, protecting its trademark vigorously.
Other spandex trademarks include Elaspan (also Invista's), ROICA & Dorlastan (Asahi Kasei) and Linel (Fillattice).

Get the better info mug.by Hercolena Oliver October 19, 2008
Get the info interchange mug.Pretty much garbage information such as an old email address or phone number that you don't use anymore that you would give someone or some organization to get a perk or benefit of some sort , such as a gas card to get a few cents of of each gallon of gas or maybe one of the big box stores to get a percentage of a purchase etc...
(Person #1) I just got 25 cents off a gallon of gas just for signing up for a gas card at the new gas station up the street . (Person #2) Yes I saw the sign that they had up last week for the discount if you were to sign up but I am sick of giving my email address and phone number out to every company that wants it just so that they will toss me a few crumbs. (Person #1) Oh no my man I just give them some "Burner Info" . (Person #2) Burner Info - What's that ? (Person #1) Old personal information that I no longer use for anything but to get a discount or deal on something , Like the way that the dealers used to use the cell phones to transact certain business back in the day , They would buy a brand phone and use it for a few times then toss it in the river , They called them "Burner Phones" That's why I call this "Burner Info" - It's old valid info but a dead end as far as getting in contact with me.
