• Product description :

  PDO can be formulated into composites, adhesives, laminates, powder and UV-cured coatings, mouldings, novel aliphatic polyesters, copolyesters, solvents, anti-freeze and other end uses. Its most successful application to date has been in the formulation of CORTERRA Polymers, a polytrimethylene terephthalate. CORTERRA Polymers are principally used in the manufacture of carpet and textile fibres but are also finding applications as engineering thermoplastics, films and coatings.
