NEOPET 84 FR
- Chemical Family
- PolyestersPolyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
NEOPET 84 FR (Fast Reheat) is a food grade PET copolyester modified to improve the infrared reheating of preforms. The enhanced energy absorption results in an improved temperature control in the process, which in turn leads to improved material distribution and bottle properties, increased machine output and reduced energy consumption. The high viscosity of the NEOPET 84 FR product helps optimize viscosity parameters during processing with the addition of recycled PET (R-PET).NEOPET 84 FR is used successfully in carbonated soft drink bottles and other applications such as water bottles and food containers, as well as packaging for household goods.
