PET Sheets Explained: Extrusion Process, Key Properties, And End-Use Applications
January 21, 2026
PET sheets find applications in various industries. In this guide, TLD Vietnam delves into the detailed sequential stages of extrusion, along with the features, innovations, and trends that will shape the industry’s future. What Is PET Sheet Extrusion? PET sheet extrusion refers to the production of PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) sheets through a thermoplastic extrusion process, in which PET resin is melted and shaped into flat sheets by passing through a die. The extruded sheets are subsequently cooled, trimmed, and cut to specified dimensions. Owing to the automated and continuous nature of the extrusion process, consistent thickness and stable product quality

INDONESIA SCRAPS B50 BIODIESEL PLAN AND RAISES PALM OIL EXPORT LEVIES
January 20, 2026
Jakarta, Jan 14 – Indonesia has decided to scrap plans to implement a mandatory B50 biodiesel blend this year and will continue with the existing B40 mandate, citing technical and funding constraints, government officials said. The decision has eased earlier concerns over potential tightness in global palm oil supply and weighed on market sentiment. Indonesia, the world’s largest palm oil producer, had planned to roll out B50 – a fuel blend consisting of 50% palm oil-based biodiesel and 50% conventional diesel – in the second half of the year. Instead, the government will maintain the B40 mandate, which requires a

Why Choose Polypropylene Packaging For Thermoforming
January 13, 2026
Selecting a packaging material requires balancing performance requirements (thermal resistance, impact strength, chemical resistance), functional needs (rigidity, seal integrity, formability), product protection across the supply chain, and overall material and logistics costs. When material selection is aligned with real service conditions such as temperature exposure, mechanical loads, and handling environments, the risk of deformation, cracking, and product damage during distribution can be significantly reduced. This blog by TLD Vietnam begins with Polypropylene packaging, providing clear insights into the benefits and drawbacks of commonly used Polypropylene packaging solutions.

PE Wax Uses In Industrial Applications: A Comprehensive Analysis
January 10, 2026
PE Wax is a low-molecular-weight polyethylene polymer derived from ethylene polymerization or as a byproduct of polyethylene production. It exhibits a high degree of crystallinity, resulting in properties such as high hardness, low viscosity in the molten state, a melting point typically ranging from 100°C to 140°C, and excellent chemical resistance to acids, bases, and solvents. These characteristics allow PE wax to function effectively as a lubricant, dispersant, release agent, and surface modifier in various industrial processes. This analysis of TLD Vietnam examines the fundamental properties of PE Wax and explores the primary industrial PE Wax use. Fundamental Properties of
