Simulation of the stretch blow moulding process: from the modelling of the microstructure evolution to the end-use elastic properties of polyethylene terephthalate bottles [PDF]
The original publication is available at www.springerlink.comThe whole stretch blow-moulding process of PET bottles is simulated at the usual process temperature in order to predict the elastic end-use properties of the bottles.

Reactive melt processing of poly(ethylene terephthalate) waste into calcium terephthalate
Recycling of waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) has attracted much attention in recent years because of the pressure from the environment. However, the cost-effective conversion of waste PET into value-added products by ecofriendly methods remains ...

Enhanced Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Hydrolase Activity by Protein Engineering
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) hydrolase (PETase) from Ideonella sakaiensis exhibits a strong ability to degrade poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) at room temperature, and is thus regarded as a potential tool to solve the issue of polyester plastic ...

Crystallization kinetics of poly(lactic acid)-talc composites [PDF]
The crystallization kinetics of Poly(lactic acid) / talc composites were determined over a range of 0 wt.% to 15 wt.% of talc. Talc was found to change the crystallization kinetics.

Effect of polystyrene on poly(ethylene terephthalate) crystallization [PDF]
Blends of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and polystyrene (PS) with PS content ranging from 0% to 60% by weight, were compounded in a laboratory internal mixer, followed by quenching into iced water, resulting in substantially amorphous compounds ...
