What are the differences between different types of materials in Tritan plastic material? (1)

Hello everyone, the "Dong Dong Talk Cup" is here. In the blink of an eye, it's Christmas season again. In China, people pay more attention to celebrating the Chinese New Year, while in foreign countries, especially in Europe and America, Christmas is more valued. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlSo the Christmas season economy also emerged, during which both the products sold in foreign markets and those purchased by foreign buyers are mostly related to Christmas, among which various shiny products are more popular.


Due to the fact that plastic water bottles can easily achieve various glossy effects, they are particularly popular in the market at this time. The editor has written an article about the European plastic restrictions a long time ago (friends who like it can look for it), so plastic water bottles purchased in Europe and America are mainly made of Tritan material. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlTaking this opportunity, the editor will share with you the relationship between Tritan and PCTG, and compare the materials of different models.


What is PCTG?

Answer: PCTG is a modified polyester material made by polymerizing terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol (EG). http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlIts modification makes the material have better processing and mechanical properties.


What is Tritan?

Answer: Tritan is a specially designed copolyester that typically contains diacids and diols, but its specific chemical formula is a trade secret. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlTritan is specifically designed to provide higher heat resistance and impact resistance.


Is PCTG Tritan?

Answer: No


Is Trtan PCTG?

Answer: Strictly speaking, Trtan is a highly optimized PCTG, food grade.


What are the differences in application areas?

Answer: PCTG is widely used in the fields of automobiles, electronic product packaging, and disposable medical devices. Its cost is relatively low and it is suitable for large-scale production. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlTritan is commonly used in the manufacturing of children's products, kitchen supplies, sports water bottles, etc. It has gained a good reputation among consumer products due to its reliable physical properties and safety.


Are TX-1001, TX-2001, TX-3001 product models of PCTG material or Tritan material?

Answer: In the water cup industry, especially among plastic water cup production factories, due to the communication needs and habits of our factory, some factories are accustomed to calling Tritan PCTG. Therefore, TX-1001, TX-2001, TX-3001 in Tritan will be referred to as PCTG TX-1001, TX-2001, TX-3001. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlStrictly speaking, this term is unscientific. Although Tritan belongs to the improved PCTG, fundamentally it is food grade, and for material suppliers, PCTG refers more to industrial plastic materials rather than food grade.


So what are the differences in performance between these three different types of materials? We will continue to share with you in the next article. If you like the editor, follow and like them. http://www.zhanyict.com/en/ProductsDetail-VB-10235.htmlSee you later.
