Biaxial deformation of PET at conditions applicable to stretch blow moulding and the subsequent effect on mechanical properties

The injection stretch blow moulding (ISBM) process is the main method used to mass-produce polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles for the carbonated soft drink and the mineral water industries. At present researchers have been developing numerical simulations of the process with the aim of gaining...
