PET foam, the main component is polyethylene terephthalate. PET foam has good heat resistance, mechanical strength and environmental performance, so it is widely used in construction, vehicles, roof insulation materials, sports equipment, wind energy and other fields.
TOPOLO PET foam is compatible with different resin and forming processes. The process temperature can reach 150℃, and the long term thermal stability is good. (the maximum can reach 100℃/212℉)
The density of PET foam core is from 60kg/m3 to 250kg/m3.
