Description
PET is a multipurpose thermoplastic polymer from the polyester family which can be used in different mechanical, thermal, chemical resistance properties. This polymer is produced by polymerization of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid. Ethylene glycol is a colorless liquid obtained from ethylene, and terephthalic acid is a crystalline solid obtained from xylene. By heating them together with chemical catalysts, molten viscous masses of PET will be obtained that can be converted to fibers.
This product can be processed as plastic. PET is mainly used as a packaging material in recycling bins, bottles and packaging consumer goods like soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, detergents, cosmetics, pharmaceutical products and oils. Also it can be used to make water resistant papers.
