Like certain other polymers, Polyethylene Terephthalate isn’t suitable for RF welding by itself, but the addition of heat to the RF process can render the PET RF weldable in select situations. Hence, both heat and RF bonding processes are available to create airtight and watertight seals that can resist wear and tear.
This material is used in the construction of many types of products across a wide range of industries. Manufacturers use Polyethylene Terephthalate for plastic bags, bottles, containers, boxes, and more.
Whether heat sealing or RF welding on Polyethylene Terephthalate, products can benefit from hermetic seams that keep products contained and free of outside contamination.
There are many advantages of Polyethylene Terephthalate in product manufacturing, for both the manufacturer and the end user. One of the main benefits of using Polyethylene Terephthalate is the cost. It is a very economical material.
Polyethylene Terephthalate is durable enough to avoid breaking or cracking, and its lightweight nature makes it ideal for bulk packaging.
Other benefits of Polyethylene Terephthalate plastic include moisture resistance to prevent leaching, lack of toxicity, and good recyclability. These qualities make Polyethylene Terephthalate ideal for food containment products, along with medical products that require effective contamination resistance.
Heat sealing and RF welding can create hermetically sealed seams that keep water and other substances contained while resisting tearing under pressure.
