Polyester refers to a broad group of chemical compounds which share a common element in their chemical composition. Polyester as a fabric used in clothing is flamable, but not in the same way as cotton or paper. Polyester first melts, causing burning and potentially fusing with the victim's skin. If the melted fibers continue to be heated, they will burn like candle wax, only hotter.

Sorry to burst your bubble but actually polyester isn't flammable. It just melts and adhers to the skin.
