Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA)

Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) is a key organic compound formed through the reaction of paraxylene (PX), a secondary petroleum product, with acetic acid. PTA is primarily used in the production of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), a widely utilized polyester. During polymerization, PTA is combined with other chemicals to produce PET, which appears as a white crystalline powder.

Key Characteristics:

Safety: PTA is considered to be non-toxic and is classified as flammable, with the potential to ignite in the presence of sufficient air.
Applications: As a crucial organic raw material, PTA finds extensive use in various industries, including:
Chemical Fiber Industry: Essential for producing synthetic fibers.
Light Industry: Used in a variety of consumer products.
Electronics Industry: Integral in the manufacturing of electronic components.
Construction Industry: Utilized in various construction materials and applications.

Mixed Xylene

CAS Number 1330-20-7
Formula C24H30

Mixed xylenes refer to the equilibrium mixture of four isomers with the same chemical formulaâ??paraxylene (PX), ortho-xylene (OX), meta-xylene (MX), and ethylbenzene. Mix Xylene appears as colorless,
flammable liquids, which are of great industrial value.
