Through a biolipid transesterification, similar to the production of biodiesel, utilizing PET and glycols we go a step further and produce aromatic polyester polyols. This polyester includes the aromatic terephthalate from the PET and gives it different properties that the characteristics we know from the typical soy polyols in the market.
The biggest chemical advantage of this polyols compared to the traditional rigid polyester polyols is the possibility of having higher functionalities. As a result of that we have formulations for low density foams using 50% ...
