I would like to incorporate micro-capsules in Melt spun PET filament. As we know Melting point of PET is >260C. What micro-capsule coating material would be suitable for this process? Also are there ways to reduce melting point of PET for yarn formation without changing its properties ?
Good day, Shahin Mohammad Nasimul Haque! Hope you are doing well.
Please, consider the use of syndiotactic PAN (Tm = 321 deg. C), syndiotactic PS (Tm = 276 deg. C) or PEEK (Tm = 357 deg. C). Here is the link on some other data:

Best of luck in your research!
