The uses of PET film
The uses of PET film
PET film is used in our modern world frequently and in many diverse applications. PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film or polyester film is a thermoplastic polymer that is utilised for antimicrobial & insulation films, surface protection, hard-coats films & protective films, labelling & label face-stocks, packaging & printable films, security/tamper evident films and photovoltaic back-sheets.
Combined with their processing tolerance and mechanical properties make them the perfect substrate choice for processing (i.e. metallizing, vacuum coating, laminating, etc.).
Typically either bubble extruded or biaxially oriented, PET film is a thermoplastic polymer that is in many ways not only comparable but superior to varying other thermoplastic polymers with regards to dielectric constant, insulation breakdown & melting points.
PET film also has a high tear strength & tensile strength which is one of the main factors for usage as outlined above.

Thats the standard usage what if we told you there are other uses for PET films that may surprise you quite a bit?
ITO Coated PET Films
This is where PET film gets interesting Applying indium tin oxide (ITO) coatings to transparent PET films maintains their transparency while rendering them conductive which subsequently makes them suitable components for touch screens and LCD displays, Transparent heaters and smart windows, position sensors as well as EMI/RFI Shielding, Electrophoretic Displays and Electroluminescent (EL) Lamps.
So your standard PET film used widely in packaging suddenly becomes a very important component in the manufacture of touch screen devices and eco friendly smart glass amazing!
