Product Description
ARTENIUS DESIGN is a PET in pellets especially designed for thick wall applications. This grade presents a higher IV and outstanding mechanical properties. Suitable for thick sheet extrusion up to approximately 5 mm thickness. It is particularly suitable for use in thick wall preforms, which require slow crystallization to achieve hight light transmission and a neutral colour tone.
