I took this picture of a top part of a PET water bottle which was heated to 140°C, and kept there for around 2 hours. The length of time was to ensure that the whole sample reached the same temperature, rather than the thin wall sections warm up to 140°C, and the thicker section reach only 100°C, for example. The opaque threaded section indicates a higher crystallinity of the plastic.
