description Product Description
Used primarily in the production of purified terephthalic acid (PTA), which is a key raw material for manufacturing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic. PET is widely used in plastic bottles, food containers, and synthetic fibers for textiles. Also serves as a solvent in industrial processes and as a feedstock in the synthesis of other chemicals such as dyes, pesticides, and plasticizers. Minor use in the production of resins and coatings due to its stability and solvency properties.
