| Description |
Polybutylene terphthalate (PBT; Poly(butylene terephthalate)) is a semicrystalline thermoplastic polyester considered as a medium performance engineering polymer. It is produced industrially in a two-step batch or continuous process. The first step involves the transesterification of dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) with 1,4-butanediol (BDO) to produce hydrobutyl terephtlate (bis-HBT) at a temperature of 200°C. The second step consists to the polycondensation of bis-HBT at 250°C to yield PBT. It exhibits both excellent electrical properties and chemical resistance. When reinforced with glass fibers, it has improved stiffness and mechanical strength. Typical uses include connectors, capacitors and cable enclosures. PBT is also used in hot appliances such as iron and kettles.
| | Chemical Properties | Poly(butylene terephthalate) is prepared in a condensation reaction between dimethyl terephthalate and 1,4-butanediol and its repeating unit has the general structure:
This thermoplastic shows good tensile strength, toughness, low water absorption, and good frictional properties, plus good chemical resistance and electrical properties. |
