1,3-Propanediol CAS#504-63-2
Key Raw Material for PTT Production – 1,3-Propanediol (PDO) is essential for producing polytrimethylene terephthalate, a next-generation polyester.
Excellent Chemical Stability – PTT derived from PDO combines the chemical stability of traditional PET, ensuring durability and long-term performance.
High Resilience – Fabrics made from PTT exhibit superior elasticity and shape retention, enhancing textile quality.
Anti-Pollution Properties – PTT resists stains and environmental pollutants, making it suitable for advanced textile applications.
1,3-Propanediol (PDO) is primarily utilized to manufacture a new kind of polyester, polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT). PTT combines the chemical stability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with excellent resilience and anti-pollution properties, offering promising applications in the textile industry.
