vPET for technical applications
POLYMETRIX SSP process technology is particularly suitable for the production of PET pellets with very high viscosity. PET pellets with high viscosity are required for the production of high-strength yarns, strapping and other special products.
Typical applications for this product group range from tire tapes and safety belts to conveyor belts as well as hoses, nets and ropes. The material fulfills the highest requirements of reputable manufacturers of vehicles, tires and special textiles. Usually, homopolymer PET with or without pigments such as titanium dioxide is used for these applications.
PET pelelts from POLYMETRIX SSP plants are mainly characterized by a significantly higher viscosity, an even distribution of viscosity, a minimal content of dust and oligomers, and optimal processing characteristics for downstream spinning processes.
