I assume you are thinking of using PETG for extrusion blow moulding.
Good Luck! - The 'processing window' of this material is painfully tight.
It's melt strength is very weak.
Its OK for very small bottles but the pain will start with bottles above 200 ml.
Many good companies have tried to use this material and gave up.

PETG=Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol modified
It is "improved" PET, providing extreme impact resistance. It has excellent gloss and clarity.
Its recycle code is 1.

I am looking for some technical advice.
I am working on a PETG continuous extrusion project for a company I will be joining in the near future.
We are looking at 2 resin types, Eastman EB062 and Sky Pet H2003 and I am interested to know if you are using these resins and how they perform or alternatively what resin types you use.
Would it also be possible for you to advise me on the recycling (SPI) codes for PETG. I am hoping that it is SPI code no. 1.

Hope you will be able to help.

Regards

Neil Sharman
