Application of PETG material in media bottle

Wed Mar 01 11:08:37 CST 2023

PETG is a kind of transparent plastic, which belongs to non-crystalline copolyester. It has good viscosity, transparency, color, chemical resistance, and stress whitening resistance. It can be thermoformed or extrusion blow molded very quickly. It is a good choice for making media bottle of good raw material. PETG raw materials have the following characteristics:

1. Thermoforming performance

PETG is easy to produce products with complex shapes and large draw ratios. This material does not need to be pre-dried before thermoforming. The molding cycle is short, the temperature is low, and the yield is higher.

2. Toughness

Extruded sheets of PETG are generally 15 to 20 times tougher than general-purpose acrylics and 5 to 10 times tougher than impact-modified acrylics, and have sufficient bearing capacity during processing, transportation and use to help prevent rupture.

3. Weather resistance

PETG offers excellent weather resistance. It maintains the firmness of the product and prevents yellowing. It contains UV absorbers that are co-extruded into a protective layer that protects the sheet from the harmful effects of UV rays.

4. Excellent chemical resistance

PETG is resistant to many chemicals and commonly used cleaning agents, and is resistant to hydrolysis in hot and humid environments.

5. Environmental protection

After burning PETG, only water and carbon dioxide are left. It is an environmentally friendly material and meets the requirements of food contact management.

PETG Media bottles have good transparency and excellent impact resistance. Thanks to various excellent properties, it is also used in the fields of board, sheet, cosmetic packaging, etc.

The FAI climbed 5.9 percent year-on-year in the first 11 months of 2018, quickening from the 5.7-percent growth in Jan-Oct, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Friday in an online statement.

The key indicator of investment, dubbed a major growth driver, hit the bottom in August and has since started to rebound steadily.

In the face of emerging economic challenges home and abroad, China has stepped up efforts to stabilize investment, in particular rolling out measures to motivate private investors and channel funds into infrastructure.

Friday's data showed private investment, accounting for more than 60 percent of the total FAI, expanded by a brisk 8.7 percent.

NBS spokesperson Mao Shengyong said funds into weak economic links registered rapid increases as investment in environmental protection and agriculture jumped 42 percent and 12.5 percent respectively, much faster than the average.

In breakdown, investment in high-tech and equipment manufacturing remained vigorous with 16.1-percent and 11.6-percent increases respectively in the first 11 months. Infrastructure investment gained 3.7 percent, staying flat. Investment in property development rose 9.7 percent, also unchanged.
