In theory, PET can be recycled infinitely. However, the recycling process can decrease the quality of the PET. When the resin goes through multiple heat cycles during the recycling process, the breakdown of polymer chains occurs, which degrades the PET’s quality. Some additives can be added to raise PET’s quality. These additives are molecules that attach to the ends of broken polymer chains, reconnect them, and produce the longer chains needed for production of PET bottles or other products.
