PCTG

PCTG TX1001 Eastman Chemical Injection grade with release agent mechanical properties good chemical resistance

PCTG is an amorphous copolyester with the following properties:

1. Optical performance:

- High transparency: the transparency of PCTG products is very high, the light transmittance is more than 90%, the fog is very low, almost comparable to glass, with a crystal luster, can clearly show the internal product, suitable for applications with high transparency requirements, such as transparent containers, display shelves, lamp covers, etc.

2. Mechanical properties:

- Moderate hardness and rigidity: With certain hardness and rigidity, it can meet the requirements of mechanical strength of materials in a variety of application scenarios, and is suitable for the production of various durable consumer housing and packaging materials.
3. Thermal performance:

- Wide operating temperature range: has good heat resistance and cold resistance, can withstand a certain high temperature environment without deformation or softening, and can still maintain good toughness and impact strength in low temperature environment.
4. Chemical stability:

Good chemical resistance: It can resist the erosion of a variety of chemicals, including commonly used cleaners, fats and detergents, etc., and is not easy to be eroded by solvents, so it is widely used in food contact materials, medical equipment and packaging of daily chemical products.

5. Processing performance:
- Easy processing molding: easy processing, can be made into various shapes of products through extrusion, injection molding, blow molding and blister and other molding methods, can be designed according to the designer's intention of any shape, and the molding cycle is short, the temperature is low, and the yield is higher.

- Excellent secondary processing performance: good secondary processing performance, can be conventional machining modification, such as sawing, die-cutting, drilling, punching, shearing, riveting, milling and cold bending, can also be flocking, electroplating, electrostatic processing.

6. Environmental protection:

- Environmentally friendly materials: PCTG materials are environmentally friendly materials, which meet the requirements of food contact management and are safer and more reliable to use.

7. Economy: Compared with some high-performance plastics such as PC board, PCTG has a certain price advantage, and is more durable than acrylic, which can reduce production costs while meeting performance requirements.
