1.Excellent Mechanical Strength – PET sheets offer high tensile and impact strength, making them suitable for demanding engineering and structural applications.
2.Outstanding Dimensional Stability – Low creep and minimal thermal expansion ensure precise tolerances and stable performance under load.
3.Good Chemical Resistance – Resistant to many acids, alcohols, and cleaning agents, making PET sheets ideal for industrial environments (not recommended for strong alkalis).
4.Superior Transparency – Available in clear grades with high optical clarity, making them a good alternative to glass in displays and protective covers.
5.Good Heat Resistance – Maintains mechanical properties up to about 120 °C in continuous use, suitable for hot filling, sterilization, and moderate-heat applications.
6.Low Moisture Absorption – PET sheets absorb very little moisture, preserving their strength and dimensions in humid or wet environments.
7.Easy to Fabricate and Thermoform – Can be cut, machined, thermoformed, or printed, allowing for a wide range of custom parts and signage.
8.Food-Contact Safe – Many PET grades are FDA and EU compliant, making them suitable for food packaging and processing equipment.
9.Cost-Effective Engineering Plastic – Offers a balanced combination of strength, rigidity, and clarity at a competitive price point compared with other engineering plastics.
