Results for tag: "Polybutylene Terephthalate"

Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) is a semi-crystalline engineering plastic that is used in a wide range of applications. It is known for its excellent mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. PBT is often used in automotive, electrical, and electronic components, as well as in consumer goods. It is also used in medical and food contact applications due to its low toxicity and good biocompatibility. PBT is often blended with other polymers to improve its properties, such as impact strength, heat resistance, and flame retardancy. PBT is a cost-effective alternative to other engineering plastics, such as polycarbonate and polyamide. It is also widely used in the production of fibers, films, and coatings. Some companies in the PBT market include BASF, Celanese, SABIC, Solvay, and Toray. Show Less Read more
