Tyzor^® ACtivate™ PET catalyst can reportedly improve resin producers’ position in the value chain by increasing profitability on a per-metric-ton basis and delivering a differentiated PET resin.

“PET resins producers are faced with tremendous challenges to maintain or even achieve profitability,” said Andrea Smith, Technical Marketing manager. “Tyzor ACtivate catalyst technology can improve their profitability per-metric-ton PET and produce a differentiated PET resin for their customers. Enhanced resin performance is attributed to changes in the temperature of crystallization on the heat up and cool down curves for resins catalyzed with ACtivate. This translates into reduced molding cycle times for bottle preforms and increased lightweighting for hot fill bottles.”
