Synthetic Route
The production method of PBT basically follows the production technology of PET, but replaces ethylene glycol with 1,4-butanediol.The most suitable processing method for PBT (enhanced and modified PBT) is injection molding. Other methods include extrusion, blow molding, coating and various secondary processing and molding processes. |
