POLAND IS THE HOME OF APPS

摘要

According to Bondarek, "the first aromatic polyester polyols made on an industrial scale were made in Poland," and were made to his patents of 1981. Bondarek's team developed APP resins based on DMT (dimethyl terephthalate) bottoms from Elana, a local producer of polyester fibre and DMT Bondarek said, "At that time around 8 kt of DMT bottoms of high cadmium content were being burned as waste. Bondarek built an APP plant on Elana's site, and added a cadmium recovery unit.
