SKYPET® BR-V

Generic Family: CopolyesterSupplied by: SK Chemicals
SKYPET® BR is a semi-crystalline Copolyester grade with excellent transparency, chemical resistance, and processability. Due to its slower crystallization ratec ompared to aregular PET, BR is suited for making thicker products for variety of applications through injection, stretch blow molding, and sheet extrusion processing. SKYPET® BR does not contain Bisphenol derivatives (BPA, etc.) and Phthalate-based plasticizercomponents regulated by the EU RoHS regulations. It also meets the requirements for food contact materials in Korea, the US, Europe, China, and Japan. For further details,please refer to SK Chemicals' technical documents.

Key Attributes
  • Not easily crystallized compared to SKYPET BB and SKYPET BL
  • More easily applicable when forming thick materials compared to SKYPET BB and SKYPET BL
  • Transparency is ensured
  • Requires lower temperature for formation than SKPET BB and SKYPET BL
  • Minimal occurrence of byproducts, such acetaldehyde

Applications
  • 5-gallon mineral water bottles
  • Containers for cosmetics :
  • Sheet (outer packing and wrapping materials) : excellent thermoforming, enabling deep draw
  • Thickness of thermoforming : 5 or 6mm
  • Returnable bottles
