Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for the manufacture of a modified polyalkylene terephthalate such as modified polybutylene terephthalate. In particular, the process comprises employing a titanium-containing catalyst formed by the reaction product of tetraalkyl titanate and a complexing agent comprising a phosphorous, nitrogen or boron atom. The process is used to prepare modified polyalkylene terephthalates characterized by improved hydrostability, as well as compositions derived therefrom.

Abstract:
Bio-based terephthalic acid (bio-TPA), bio-based dimethyl terephthalate (bio-DMT), and bio-based polyesters, which are produced from a biomass containing a terpene or terpenoid, such as limonene are described, as well as the process of making these products. The bio-based polyesters include poly(alkylene terephthalate)s such as bio-based poly(ethylene terephthalate) (bio-PET), bio-based poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (bio-PTT), bio-based poly(butylene terephthalate) (bio-PBT), and bio-based poly(cyclohexylene dimethyl terephthalate) (bio-PCT).

Abstract:
Disclosed is an improved process for preparing a modified polyalkylene terephthalate by melt polycondensation followed optionally by solid state condensation comprising reacting an alkylene diol and polyethylene terephthalate, wherein polymerization occurs in the presence of a catalyst complex formed by reaction of tetra(alkyl) titanate and a compound selected from phosphorus-containing compounds, nitrogen-containing compounds, boron-containing compounds, and combinations thereof.
