Polytrimethylene Terephthalate Production from TPA and Propanediol
This report presents the economics of Polytrimethylene Terephthalate (PTT) production from terephthalic acid (TPA) and propanediol via a process similar to Degussa (now Evonik) technology. This process employs a direct esterification of terephthalic acid and 1,3-propanediol to make PTT. The economic assessment assumes a plant located in the United States.
