PET POPCORN WHITE

PET POPCORN WHITE

PET POPCORN WHITE is a recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) material grade supplied by PT. Trikarya Sukses Makmur[cite: 495, 499]. Characterized by its specific brightness, low moisture content, controlled intrinsic viscosity, and high purity standards, this recycled PET feedstock is suitable for plastic reprocessing, compounding, and industrial recycled resin manufacturing[cite: 494].

Key Features

• Controlled Intrinsic Viscosity (I.V.) maintaining polymer chain integrity for reprocessing[cite: 494].
• High Brightness & Consistent Color Profile with a Minolta Color L value of ≥ 75.0 and Color b value of ≤ 5.0[cite: 494].
• Strict Moisture Control (< 0.5 wt%) to prevent hydrolytic degradation during melt processing[cite: 494].
• Low Polymer Dust Level (≤ 2000 ppm) for smooth handling and extrusion stability[cite: 494].
• Purity Standardized across A-Grade quality controls (Nil lump, yellow popcorn, or fiber contamination)[cite: 494].

Quality Grade Classification

• A-Grade (1RA000001): High-purity specification with I.V. ≥ 0.510 dl/g, moisture < 0.5%, and zero contamination from lumps, yellow popcorn, fibers, or UV-fluorescent materials[cite: 494].
• B-Grade (1RA000001): Secondary grade with I.V. < 0.510 dl/g, moisture > 0.5%, and allowable minor contamination ranges for less demanding industrial applications[cite: 494].

Note: Specifications are based on PT. Trikarya Sukses Makmur internal test methods (IR series)[cite: 494, 495].
