 SRI Consulting CEH Report
Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) resins and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) engineering resins are high-performance, high-molecular-weight materials that can be converted into functional components and parts that are in turn used in a diversified array of assemblies for automotive, electrical/electronic, appliance and industrial equipment applications.
In mid-2006, DuPont announced that it was going to make polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) engineering thermoplastic from terephthalic acid (TPA) and propanediol (bio-PDO), which in turn is made from renewable resources.
The level of raw material 1,4-butanediol (BDO) required is less than with standard PBT production; thus emissions of CO and consumption of oil are reduced, as well as disposal of postconsumer PET bottles in landfills.
