Historia y aplicaciones del polietileno tereftalato (PET)
Michael Sepe | Plastics Technology México
Desde su origen en fibras y películas hasta su consolidación en envases, el polietileno tereftalato (PET) ha marcado hitos en la industria. El material enfrenta retos como la cristalización lenta, los límites térmicos del estado amorfo y el envejecimiento físico que reduce la ductilidad. La respuesta técnica llegó con nucleación, control térmico en preformas y alternativas como el PBT.
