3. Product application
1,4-Cyclohexane Dimethanol (CHDM) is mainly used in polyesters, such as polyester fibers, and unsaturated polyester resins like PETG, PCT, PCTG, PCTA, and more. CHDM can enhance the reactivity in polyester compounds, and improve the hydrolytic stability, plasticity, gloss, transparency, printability, and processing ability of the polymer. CHDM can also be used in powder coating applications, which could enhance low temperature resistance and weather resistance of coatings, and improve the gloss of the coating surface.
4. Packing & Delivery
