For every polymer form and function, there is a mineral, fiber, metal or carbon filler that will maximize its performance.
Limestone is composed mostly of the mineral calcite (CaCO3) but may contain dolomite or another crystalline form of calcium carbonate called aragonite.1
Copper filler, often in powder or flake form, is also a good substitute for aluminum, as it has a much higher melting point and doesn’t corrode like aluminum will.

It is always recommended to test the container at multiple points in the wall section (at least at the thickest and thinnest locations) to fully assess the UV barrier capability.
When additives are not specifically designed for use in PET, they can migrate from the polymer matrix and form tiny deposits.
