RAMAPET® R180

About
RAMAPET R180 is a general purpose polymer with “clear reheat” for the European market. Typical applications include carbonated soft drinks (CSD), carbonated and still water, household products, pharmaceutical, and general purpose containers. The product is also suitable for film & sheet applications. RAMAPET R180 contains a moderate level of a “clear” reheat additive which does not compromise the bottle appearance. The formulation gives a better reheat consistency than PET without reheat, allowing the blowing of more complicated shapes and an efficient blowing of the latest, light-weighted preform/bottle designs. The use of reheat additive provides significant energy saving up to 30% when reheating preforms.&&
