This interim report summarizes the development of two modified PET resins, ESPET E-02 and ESPET E-03, for use in toothbrush bristle monofilaments. The resins were designed to have properties closer to PBT, including intrinsic viscosity, melting point, and glass transition temperature. Pilot batches of 10kg and 80kg were produced. Preliminary testing shows the resins have properties within targets. Samples have been sent for outside testing of monofilament production, process feasibility, and bristle-specific tests. A future report will provide a comparative study of the modified PET resins versus PBT.
