They include the following;
- Clear PET sheet
- PET laser printing sheet
- PET roof sheet
- Antistatic PET sheet
- Colored PET sheet
- PET laminated magnetic sheet
- PET mylar sheet
- Custom PET sheet
What is PET Plastic made of?
PET plastic material is primarily a polymer of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol.
So it happens that the small pellets of PET resin are reacted into high pressure and low vacuum pressure to a molten liquid.
It is this molten liquid that molded or extruded into a specific shape hence giving you the PET plastic.
PET Production
What are the Characteristics of PET?
Typically, PET products are primarily used in different industries worldwide.
And this is, of course as a result of high performance due to special processes developed to improve the characteristics of the material.
Its most popular characteristics include the following;
- Lightweight – It is one of the plastic materials that you can easily carry around, transport, and carry quite easily. It is lightweight, which also makes it easy for it to be used in different applications.
- High clarity – PET provides excellent clarity, the more reason it is preferred for various packaging uses such as water bottles.
- Recyclability – This material is 100% recyclable and also considered the leading plastic worldwide when it comes to recyclability. PET has a low diffusion coefficient that makes it more suitable to be recovered than any other plastics.
- Customizability – This material provides various alternatives as far as customizing it into different colors and shapes is concerned. By default, it is transparent hence making it easy to pick any color using dyes as well as style, especially if cast molded.
- High impact resistance – PET is a thin material but sturdy and has better resistance to impact than most materials such as glass and acrylic.
It can bend or make some form of deformation before it breaks, and this is quite rare.
- Resealability– It is among the few plastic materials that offer excellent resealability properties.
This is the more reason it is also used for packaging foods since it allows the user to reclose the container as a way of maintaining freshness or preventing spillage of the product.
- Thermostability – PET is one of the unique materials that can resist irreversible change, be it in its physical or chemical structure at a comparatively high relative temperature.
- Shatter resistance – PET is one of the unique plastic materials that can never break or cause to break all over sudden it pieces. During its manufacturing, the molecules are tightly held to ensure that it becomes shatter-free.
- Affordable – It is also a relatively affordable material. This explains why it is primarily used in different parts of the world for various applications.
How is PET Sheet made?
The process of manufacturing PET sheet is quite simple but requires some sort of knowledge and sophisticated components to get better results.
PET as an aliphatic polyester is made from polycondensation of reaction of the monomers.
Primarily, terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol are the core building blocks for PET.
So it happens that these two raw materials are combined under high pressure and low vacuum pressure, which results in formation of long chains of the polymer.
A combination of these two building blocks helps to yield a polymer chain.
Tentatively, this reaction produces PET in form of a molten, highly viscous, and mass.
The moment the ideal length is attained, the reaction is then stopped.
Now, this polymer chain results in an element that looks more or less like spaghetti strands, which are extruded relatively fast than allowed to cool.
Once they cool, you can then cut the strands into smaller pellets.
Then, these pellets are then subjected to heat to ensure that they are molten into liquid.
In liquid form, it makes it easy for you to mold or extrude them into different items of practically any shape for that matter.
What is the Highest Temperature that PET Sheet can Withstand?
PET can withstand a maximum temperature of 255 degrees Celsius.
This, of course, is ideal since it shows that the material has excellent resistance to heat.
Additionally, it shows that of all the recyclable plastic materials, it is the leading one in terms of heat resistance.
Are there Plastic Sheets that can replace PET Sheet?
PET Sheet
Well, the truth is that it is not necessarily possible to replace PET sheet with any particular material.
Even so, it is possible to make materials that have less polymer connect by adding biodegradable organic compounds.
Nonetheless, some of the plastic materials that can substitute PET sheet include the following;
- PEN – It is an abbreviation for polyethylene terephthalate, which, ideally, offers extraordinary features but a bit costly.
This, however, makes it a suitable option for recyclable containers hence can be used in place of PET.
- PP – It is also another suitable replacement for PET material. PP or Polypropylene is nonetheless ideal for non-carbonated soft drinks and beverages. Even so, you can still use them for packaging other products such as milk and juices, among others.
- PS – It refers to polystyrene, which apparently is quite similar to PET, especially when it comes to the point of view, optical and haptic.
It is also highly recyclable and ideal for packaging various products such as carbonated beverages.
What are the Disadvantages of PET Sheet?
Comparatively low resistance to heat – PET sheet can withstand high temperatures.
However, accidental storage of this material in hot areas for long might tend to induce a chemical exchange of PET container melting and reacting with the packed content.
This might happen unknowingly.
And it is the reason experts tend to recommend storing food in ET containers should be in warm or cold areas.
Lower resistance to scratch – The fact that this material is bendable and has excellent resistance to impact shows that it is a lesser dense material.
And this is what makes it somewhat susceptible to scratches compared to other materials such as acrylic and glass.
Of course, scratches do not necessarily affect the purpose of the material, it’s only that it compromises the appearance of the material.
Poor ink compatibility – It happens that this material is only compatible with UV and eco-solvent inks.
The effect of this is that it tends to provide fewer options hence limiting the types of prints that you can make on the surface of this material.
What are the Effects of UV on PET Sheet?
From a simplistic perspective, UV primarily refers to the form of radiation that we get from sunlight rays.
The major effect of UV on PET sheet is degradation.
In this sense, degradation refers to the aging of the PET sheet by making it appear chalky, color shift on the surface of the material.
The surface of the component also becomes brittle.
So the UV radiation causes the plastic to age, which makes the structure to start breaking down gradually.
In technical terms, the effect of UV on PET sheet is that it makes the complex chain of polymers starts to unravel and, in return turning back to monomer once more.
And this, of course, would be pretty bad news in many applications.
Effects of UV on PET
PET sheet should Conform to which Standards?
FDA – It refers to Food and Drug Administration. It is an agency responsible for protecting public health by enforcing efficacy and safety of various products.
ASTM – This refers to an international standards organization responsible for developing and publishing voluntary consensus technical standards for various materials and products, as well as systems.
These two standards are core for the PET sheet to conform to.
The essence here is that most of the applications of PET sheet revolve around the packaging of food and beverages.
Thus the need for ensuring that it conforms with standards that overlook such aspects from the perspective of safety and efficacy.
Is clear PET Sheet Scratch Resistant?
Not necessarily.
Clear PET has high impact resistance, and it is easily bendable.
These features show that it is a less dense material.
And this primarily implies that it can be easily scratched when rubbed against objects.
However, it would also be vital to understand that, in most instances, during manufacturing of this product, you can always apply an anti-scratch coating.
This coating enables it to stay comparatively resistant to scratch, which is vital given that it is widely used in applications that subject it to scratch susceptibility.
And this is even significant, especially if you’re going for a customized PET sheet from reputable suppliers such as WeProFab.
What is PET Sheet Cut to Size?
It refers to the type of PET material that is customized in terms of size and dimensions that you need for your wide range of specific applications.
In most instances, when you’re looking for a specific size of PET sheet to suit your use, you’ll need to go for a cut to size sheet.
It enables you to save on cost, time, convenience, and, at the same time, get the right size of material that you specifically require.
Can you Print on Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet?
Yes, it is possible to print on PET sheet.
What happens is that you need to find a continuous and laser printing solutions.
It would also be essential to ensure that you use unique ink formulations that provide quality codes on PET surface.
Additionally, you can as well choose to laser systems if you need to attain permanent marks with high resolution.
Are Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheets Recyclable?
Absolutely.
This material is highly recyclable and also easy to recycle. It happens that it has polymers chains, which are quite easy to recycle since they break down at comparatively low temperatures.
Moreover, there is no single degradation of the polymer chain even when subjected to recycling process.
And this is unquestionably, one of the properties of this material that makes it popular in numerous applications all over the world.
What makes PET Sustainable to the Environment?
PET material is 100% recyclable.
Now, this is an excellent feature of this material that enhances its sustainability to the environment.
This is in the sense that reuse or recycling of such materials and waste, in general, is a critical aspect of sustainability.
What happens is that this action reduces negative human impact on the environment, which helps in reducing pressure on natural resources.
By recycling, it means that you’ll be able to prevent environmental pollution by reducing the need for collecting new raw materials for manufacturing different PET products.
In other words, the consumption of raw materials for production reduces hence lowering cases of exploiting the environment.
It also helps significantly in reducing the amount of waste that is sent to landfills.
Is Food Grade PET Sheet BPA free?
Absolutely!
PET does not contain any slight traces of BPA, and it is never intentionally added on it.
PET is one of the plastic materials that are FDA compliant and, at the same time, food-safe both at its recycled or un-recycled state.
It is BPA free, the more reason it is preferred for food handling given that it never corrodes and has excellent resistance to micro-organisms.
And the fact that PET is BPA free also adds significantly to its element of being eco-friendly.
What are the benefits of Recyclable PET Sheet?
The advantages of recyclable PET sheet are quite several, and some of the key ones include the following;
- It helps in turning consumer waste into a valuable resource. What this implies is that rather than disposing of the used PET products, recyclability enhances the value of such materials.
- It enables several food and beverage manufacturers across the world to reuse the material and, at the same time, help in reducing the carbon footprints on their products.
- Recyclable PET sheets are shatterproof. This is beneficial from the perspective of providing and enhancing safety, particularly in the logistical chain at home as well as in retail stores.
- Recyclable PET sheet also has a lower carbon footprint than a virgin PET sheet, which is essential, especially in packaging and storing food and beverages.
- It also tends to be reasonably lightweight, which is essential when it comes to cutting out transmission costs as well as reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
- This type of material is also vital from the perspective of enabling businesses and establishments to deliver on their sustainable development goals.
- Recyclable PET sheet helps in reducing pressure on natural resources. This is from the perspective of preventing incidences of overexploiting the scarce natural resources and instead utilize the recyclable materials for production.
- It conserves the environment significantly by reducing pollution, given that the amount of wastes in the landfills will be reasonably low.
Why do you need Antistatic PET Sheet?
Anti-static PET sheet
First of all, an antistatic PET sheet refers to an element impregnated with a heat-activated, waxy element that functions as a fabric softener.
Its principal function is to reduce friction as well as static charge build-up.
The need for an antistatic PET sheet is critical since it helps in eliminating or reducing a static build-up by lowering the resistivity of the material.
This then prevents the mobile charges from causing static issues such as electrostatic discharge or dust attraction.
You also need an antistatic PET sheet to reduce handling problems of the material, reduce sticking parts incidences, damaging of sensitive electronic and medical equipment, and preventing fire explosion.
How does PET Sheet compare to Acrylic Sheet?
Both materials are popular choices depending on the specific applications.
However, it would be noteworthy also to understand that they have differences that make them stand out in particular applications.
So in a general sense, PET is seemingly, harder than acrylic material.
And this makes the PET quite popular than acrylic when it comes to many applications where there is quite heavy human traffic.
Also, PET material is suitable for any food and beverage even though the manufacturing process has to be considered.
Acrylic, on the other hand, is merely ideal for the production of non-food and beverage containers.
It is possible to color PET sheet, but this is dependent on costs as well as production runs.
On the other hand, acrylic sheet tends to be available a wide variety of colors as well as standard.
From the production perspective, it is quite tricky to polish PET sheet.
And when you use an improper laser on the edges, they tend to yellow.
Bonding of this material also requires the use of proper agents.
An acrylic sheet, on the other hand, experiences zero issues as long as temperatures and chemical components are aptly monitored.
It is also relatively easy to bond and provides more options for the same than PET sheet.
Acrylic sheet is quite soft and can be scratched quite easily. Even so, it has a better scratch resistance than PET sheet.
PET tends to be softer than acrylic hence highly susceptible to scratching compared to acrylic sheet.
Concerning strength, PET sheet is seemingly stronger and more stable than acrylic sheet, hence not easy to break or shatter.
PET sheet is about seven times stronger than Acrylic sheet. And for that reason, it is suitable for long term projects.
An acrylic sheet, on the other hand, breaks quite easily compared to PET sheet and has lesser resistance to impact than PET sheet.
Nonetheless, acrylic sheet has better flexibility than PET sheet hence ideal for applications that require bending.
Cleaning requirements for both the acrylic sheet and PET sheet seem to be somehow similar.
When cleaning, it is always recommended to avoid using alcohol-based cleaners since they will eventually start forming cracks on the surface of these materials.
And from an environmental conservation perspective, PET takes the lead since it is 100% recyclable and also biodegrades, albeit after a long period.
On the other hand, it is not easy to recycle acrylic sheet.
Additionally, it can also be hard to repurpose acrylic sheet unless it is in mint condition.
Is PET Toxic?
To some extent, it is toxic. PET is generally regarded as a safe plastic given that it doesn’t contain any elements of BPA.
However, it is also essential to understand that it the presence of persistent high temperatures, PET can leach antimony trioxide and phthalates, into food or beverage.
These elements are toxic metalloids that, in many instances, would cause quite a number of conditions such as stomach ulcers, vomiting, or diarrhea.
What are the Mechanical Properties of Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet?
Impact strength of acrylic sheet
- It is stiff, strong, and dimensionally stable material that has excellent resistance to water or moisture.
- It has ideal gas barrier properties as well as incredible chemical resistance except for alkalis, which tend to hydrolyze it.
- It has varying crystallinity from amorphous to fairly high.
- It can be transparent and colorless; even so, the thicker parts of these materials are always opaque and off-white.
What is the difference between PET Sheet and Polycarbonate Sheet?
In terms of strength, polycarbonate sheet displays incredible strength and durability and, at the same time, maintaining its aesthetic qualities.
It is virtually unbreakable compared to PET sheet and has higher impact resistance.
The molding techniques for these two types of materials are completely different.
Polycarbonate sheet utilizes a form of molding that enables it to have greater design flexibility like integral molded handles.
On the other hand, PET sheets require a different molding technique that provides separate molding.
Polycarbonate can also be fabricated easily by thermoforming, cutting, drilling, and gluing to fit all the necessary applications.
On the other hand, PET sheets are also machinable, but it tends to be more meticulous than polycarbonate.
In other words, polycarbonate is more versatile than PET sheet.
Another difference is that PET has polymers that offer a better barrier to glasses compared to Polycarbonate.
This is essential because it helps in preventing odor elements through the bottle.
PET sheet is more cost-effective than polycarbonate sheet.
And this is one of the reasons that it is quite a popular choice among many sectors for a wide range of applications.
PET sheet is also highly recyclable compared to polycarbonate sheet, which can hardly be recycled.
How much does PET Sheet Cost?
PET Sheet
There is no definite price for PET sheet. It is dependent on various factors such as size, thickness, application, and thickness, among others.
The cost of this material is also dependent on different regions based on other factors such as shipping and possible taxes.
For that reason, it would be difficult to place a definite price tag on PET sheet.
In general, though, it is more affordable than some of the plastic materials such as HDPE and polycarbonate.
Can you Thermoform Polyethylene Terephthalate Sheet?
Yes. It is possible to thermoform PET sheet.
In most instances, thermoforming PET often comes after extruding it to produce the sheets.
What is the difference between PET and PETG Sheet?
Well, the acronyms of these two plastics are seemingly close and can be confusing.
However, the laboratory uses and chemical properties are quite different.
So the first difference here is that PET is a combination of two monomers.
On the other hand, PETG is also of the same chemical combination but has glycol.
And it is the addition of glycol that changes the entire chemical composition of PET hence creating a different plastic known as PETG.
During heating, PET tends to become brittle as a result of undesirable crystallization effects.
PETG, on the other hand, has glycol, which removes the hazing effect during heating.
The other difference is that PETG is soft and pliable, thus easy and comfortable to grip and excellent shock handling ability.
PET, on the other hand, lacks these features hence making it less comfortable to grip and fairly inferior shock handling ability.
