On the other hand, TPEs are most commonly processed using in-line, single-screw injection equipment that has been routinely used in the plastics industry for decades. And in some cases, the lower production costs of TPEs make them an economical alternative for many single-use products and pharmaceutical-grade delivery tubing.

In some instances, a single exposure to a strong stress cracking agent may cause premature failure, yet in others it may appear to have no effect after numerous applications. While the method used in this study is useful for providing comparative data, it should be noted that the testing is conducted under a single strain condition with the disinfectant applied in a manner intended to accelerate ESC behavior; the strain and exposure conditions based on actual use scenarios should always be tested to confirm the anticipated performance in the field.

In 2019, the EU enacted its Single Use Plastics directive aimed at reducing the impact that such products have on the environment. https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/recycled-polyethylene-terephthalate-pet-market https://www.spglobal.com/platts/en/market-insights/blogs/petrochemicals/022621-us-plastic-recycling-pet-bottles-packaging-waste-investment https://ec.europa.eu/environment/topics/plastics/single-use-plastics_en Supply & Demand Currently, demand for rPET is outpacing the supply.
