COBIFOAM 0 by M&G Gruppo Mossi & Ghisolfi is a PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) plastic material.
General Information
Product Description

COBIFOAM 0 resin is a food grade PET homopolymer, based on terephthalic acid. Its high melt strength make it well suited for the production of expanded sheets, boards, panels, profiles and beads. Foam sheet can be thermoformed into trays for ovenable and dual ovenable applications. After crystallization the foamed products can withstand temperature exceeding 200°C (390 °F) for short time and are susceptible to mechanical finishing. Scraps of foamed products obtained by COBIFOAM 0 can be re-used in extrusion without significant I.V. loss.
