Lighter™ S98

Generic Family: Polyethylene TerephthalateSupplied by: Equipolymers
LIGHTERTM S98 is a polyester modified to improve infrared reheating of preforms.
LIGHTER S98 provides very good mechanical properties and a wide processing range on all injection molding machines. Moreover, preforms manufactured from LIGHTER S98 provide enhanced infrared heating rates, thus improving the operation of the stretch blow molding process, either increasing the maximum output or reducing the reheat energy. LIGHTER S98 is particularly suitable for the production of bottles for carbonated soft drinks.
