Plastiverd DESIGN
PLASTIVERD DESIGN is copolymer of PET (Polyethylene-Terephthalate), delivered in resin pellets. This resin has been specially designed for thick wall applications. This grade presents a higher IV and outstanding mechanical properties. Suitable for thick sheet extrusion up to a thickness of approximately 5 mm, sealing films and refillable bottles up to 5 gallons. It is particularly recommended for use in thick wall preforms, which need slow crystallization to achieve high light transmission, excellent brightness for thick sheets and a neutral color tone.
