Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA)

Our Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) is a high-purity, white, free-flowing granular powder. It is the purified form of terephthalic acid, with a typical assay of 99.5% minimum. As a key aromatic dicarboxylic acid, PTA is the fundamental building block for the production of saturated polyesters, most notably polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Its high purity is critical for achieving optimal molecular weight, color, and performance in the final polymer products.

Why Choose Our Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA)?

Exceptional Purity: High purity (>99.5%) ensures efficient polymerization and superior quality in final polyester products (e.g., whiteness, strength).


High Reactivity: The para-substituted benzene ring with two carboxylic acid groups allows for direct esterification with glycols (like MEG), simplifying the PET production process.


Consistent Quality: Rigorous quality control guarantees batch-to-batch consistency, which is vital for continuous polymer manufacturing.


Free-Flowing Form: The granular form ensures excellent handling and feeding characteristics in large-scale industrial processes.
