ISBM for P&GISBM for P&G

Challenges

• PET is not always the best material for household products

• Wide aspect ratio (up to 4)

• Size range extends up to 9L

Solutions

• Extend processing capabilities to other materials

• Preferential heating

• Ergonomic handle for large sizes

15

Example: ISBM PPExample: ISBM PP

1) The opportunity

2) The blow process

3) The injection process

4) Small Size Proof of Principle – Iris 400 ml

Defining the opportunity - Materials selection charts

Using these results we can generate lines of equivalency for a material selection chart

18

Accuracy of input data is critical

- New Instron Advanced Video Extensometer

- P&G has installed a video extensometer at BRTC

Performed at Instron UK (High Wycombe)

Materials selection charts – comparing 1903 & PET

Only for Mars shape can 1903 outperform PET

Materials selection charts – comparing 1685 & PET

1685 outperforms PET for all shapes

Conclusions

• A weight saving of 0-10% can be gained by using PP instead of PET if:

a) A specialist material is used

b) A wall thickness distribution and variation equal to PET is achieved

• If the above conditions are not met, PP will require higher weights than PET

23

KEY POINT –the wall thickness distribution need to be correct.

For magnet; IF 10% of the material is moved from 1 side to another, toploaddrops by 7%

24

The blow process

25

Strain hardening with sequential stretch ratios

Performed at the University of Bradford

26

Conclusions

• Current process and preform design do not result in optimal material properties

• To achieve these properties very significant changes would be needed to be made to preform design which would have detrimental cycle time effects

• Strain hardening can be seen in PP but this effect is less critical than temperature variation

27

The injection cycle

28

Conclusions

• Total cycle time for PP is not defined by injection time

• Injection can be quicker than PET for opaque bottles

• Cooling is much slower than PET resulting in overall higher cycle time (4 to 5 s additional)

29

Small size proof of principleSmall size proof of principle

• Achieved ISBM PP bottles 15% lighter than EBM HDPE and up to 40% stronger.

• Requires very good process control
