What Are the Primary Applications of Purified Terephthalic Acid?

Purified Terephthalic Acid is mainly used in the production of polyester, such as polyester fibers (polyester), polyester films, and polyester bottle chips, among other chemical fiber products. It can also be used as a key raw material for other important chemical products. In other applications, PTA can also be used to produce poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PBT), which is a polymer material with excellent mechanical properties, heat resistance, and electrical characteristics. In addition, it can also serve as a raw material for plasticizers and an intermediate for dyes.
