Fabricated Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a closed-cell, thermoplastic and recyclable polymer foam with excellent fire, smoke & toxicity (FST) properties.PET has very good mechanical properties and an extraordinary resistance to fatigue, is chemically stable and has negligible water absorption. It is thermally stable during high temperature processing and post curing. PET is designed for easy use with all resin systems and processing technologies. PET is the ideal core material for fire retardant sandwich applications.
