Material Notes:

LIGHTER™ S93 is a polyester polymer modified to improve infrared reheating of preforms. It provides very good mechanical properties and a wide processing range on all injection molding machines. Moreover, preforms manufactured from LIGHTER™ S93 provide enhanced infrared heating rates, thus improving the operation of the stretch blow molding process, either increasing maximum output or reducing the reheat energy. It is suitable for the production of bottles for both mineral water and carbonated soft drinks.Information provided by Dow
