Core Features
Glass like transparency, with a light transmittance of over 90% and a haze of less than 1%. The amorphous structure provides a good processing window in extrusion, injection molding, and blow molding. Excellent impact resistance, with impact strength 3-10 times that of modified polyacrylic esters. Good low-temperature toughness, with minimal degradation of physical properties at -15 ℃. Can withstand cold bending without whitening or cracking.
Mainstream solution
Using 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (CHDM) as a comonomer, PETG is defined as CHDM content<50%, and PCTG is defined as CHDM content>50%. SK Chemicals' SKYGREEN S2008 is a standard universal grade representative, KN100 is an enhanced optical quality grade, and KN200 is an injection grade that improves melt flow and demolding properties. Eastman's Eastar series covers a wide range of grades from sheet to shrink film.
