Breakthrough PET Catalyst Technology Achieves Major Market Success and industry Recognition...

摘要

A new titanium catalyst technology for the industrial production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) polyester is now being adopted around the globe as PET manufacturers and processors seek to eliminate the use of the heavy metal catalyst antimony oxide. The UP-Technology, developed by Catalytic Technologies Ltd (CTL) of the UK, is a catalyst technology platform that allows CTL to produce catalysts with unique chemical composition and eliminates undesired side reactions in this application. In addition to eliminating antimony oxide, the new catalyst offers a range of other benefits.
