PET Resin (Polyester)
Polyethylene Terephthalate, commonly abbreviated PET, is the most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the Polyester family and is used in fibers for clothing, Containers for liquids and foods, thermoforming for manufacturing and in combination with glass fiber for engineering resins. The majority of the world’s PET production is for synthetic fibers (in excess of 60%), with bottle production accounting for about 30% of global demand. In the context of textile applications, PET is referred to by its common name, POLYSTER, whereas the acronym PET is generally used in relation to packaging. PET is also used for manufacturing PET Films.
Polyester (PET) makes up about 18% of world polymer production and is the fourth-most-produced Polymer.
Product Details:
1. Bottle Grade PET Resin
Plastic bottles have been the basic necessity for any industry selling liquid products to the consumers. Hence there is a great demand of plastic bottle all over the world. Many types of plastic bottles are made from Bottle Grade PET Resin. So, there is a huge demand of bottle grade pet chips world-wide. End use of Bottle grade chips mainly depends on the intrinsic viscosity (IV).
PET Chips with IV of 0.80 +/-0.02 is mainly used for Drinking water bottles, Mineral water bottles & Pet Sheets.
PET Chips with IV of 0.82 +/-0.02 is mainly used in making bottles for carbonated drinks, small bottle for edible oil, liquor, medicines & pet sheets.
PET Chips with IV of 0.84 +/- 0.02 is mainly used for making Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSD).
PET Chips with IV of 0.87 +/- 0.02 is used for big packing bottles for carbonated drinks & 3 – 5 gallons water bottles.
Polytrade Impex is a leading supplier/indenter of Bottle grade PET Resin from China, Taiwan & South Korea. We supply the best quality material at a competitive price to cater the needs of our customers. We are associated with 11 manufacturers for Bottle Grade PET Resin.
2. Textile Grade (Yarn Grade) Polyester Chips
PET Chips used in Textile Industry is also known as Fibre grade PET chips, Filament grade PET chips or Textile grade PET chips. Textile grade PET Chips are used for making Polyester Filament yarn like POY, FDY and Staple fibre which are used in the Textile industry. Depending on the processing, PET may exist both as an amorphous (transparent) commonly known as Bright or Super Bright Chips and as a semi-crystalline material commonly known as PET Semi-Dull Chips. The Yarn grade or Textile grade chips are available in Bright/Super Bright (BR Chips) and Semi Dull (SD Chips).
Polyester Chips – Semi Dull (SD)
Semi Dull
Polyester Chips are used for making Polyester Filaments like POY, FDY, Staple Fiber, etc in Semi Dull luster.
