Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) granules are a thermoplastic material produced in the form of small granules and used in various industries. These granules are usually obtained through the polycondensation of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol and can be used in injection, extrusion and blow molding processes.
PET granule features:
– High transparency and usability in food and beverage packaging.
– Good mechanical and thermal resistance, making it suitable for engineering applications.
– High recyclability, reducing environmental impact.
– Resistance to chemicals such as alcohols, oils and some acids.
PET Granule Applications
– Production of beverage bottles such as mineral water and carbonated drinks.
– Manufacturing of polyester fibers for the production of durable and wrinkle-resistant fabrics.
– Production of plastic films and engineering parts in the automotive and electronics industries.
