Good heat resistance: heat distortion temperature and long-term use temperature are the highest among thermoplastic general engineering plastics. Reinforced PET is dipped in a solder bath at 250°C for 10s, almost no deformation or discoloration, especially suitable for preparing electronic and electrical parts for soldering.

Good mechanical properties: bending strength of 200MPa, elastic modulus of 4000MPa, good creep and fatigue resistance, high surface hardness, and similar mechanical properties to thermosetting plastics.

High cost performance: Since the price of ethylene glycol used in the production of PET is almost half cheaper than that of butanediol used in the production of PBT, PET resin and reinforced PET are the lowest prices among engineering plastics, with high cost performance.
