Issue 49, 2013 - China's independent intellectual property rights biological legal polyol PDO project put into production

China's biological PDO (1,3-propanediol) project with completely independent intellectual property rights has been successfully put into production in Zhangjiagang, and the production line has broken the long-term monopoly
of American enterprises in this field.

PTT, synthesized by the PDO method, is known as a "smart" polymer and is the most advanced polymer platform introduced in the early 21st century, PTT fiber has better properties than polyester and nylon fibers and a wider range of applications
.

The main raw material of PTT is the polyol known as PDO known as the leader of the PTT industry chain, which can only be synthesized
through biotechnology.
PTT fiber has the same abrasion resistance as nylon, while its stain resistance, fluffiness and elasticity and low static electricity are better than nylon, and filament and staple fiber are suitable for processing carpets, becoming the most competitive materials
in carpet applications.
