Polyethylene Terephthalate - PET 36% Glass Fibre Reinforced

Polymer Type
Thermoplastic

Advantages

Good combination of heat resistance, creep resistance, tensile strength, high modulus and low warpage accompanied by good moulding tolerances compared with unmodified PET.

Disadvantages

Low elongation at break compared with unmodified PET. Mouldings can be anisotropic.
