Bi-axially oriented polyethylene terephthalate, or BoPET, is a type of polyester film that has been stretched in two directions to improve its strength, clarity, and dimensional stability. It is commonly used in packaging, electrical insulation, and imaging applications due to its high tensile strength, chemical resistance, and transparency.
