Effect of Structural Characteristics of Polyethyleneterephthalate and Its Recycled Products on the Technological Parameters of Filament Production

The temperatures of the phase transitions for polyethyleneterephthalate samples containing recycled PET (the product Vivilen) and the waste materials from its production were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and x-ray structural analysis, and the ratio of the crystalline and amorphous phases was determined. The polyethyleneterephthalate samples were arranged according to their glass transition and melting points, which made it possible to correlate the samples according to the degree of crystallinity. In order to obtain a filament based on the dust waste from the solid-phase polycondensation process an extrusion temperature regime was established, and samples of filaments for 3D printing that meet the requirements of GOST R 59100-2020 were obtained.
