Results for tag: "Mono Methyl Terephthalate"

Mono Methyl Terephthalate (MMT) is a chemical compound used in the production of polyester fibers, films, and resins. Catalysts are used to facilitate the production of MMT, as they can speed up the reaction rate and reduce the amount of energy required. Catalysts used in the production of MMT include titanium-based catalysts, zeolite-based catalysts, and solid acid catalysts. Titanium-based catalysts are the most commonly used, as they are highly efficient and cost-effective. Zeolite-based catalysts are also used, as they are more selective and can produce higher yields. Solid acid catalysts are used for their high selectivity and low energy consumption. Companies in the MMT market include BASF, Dow Chemical, Eastman Chemical, Mitsubishi Chemical, and SABIC.
