What are the upstream raw materials of PBAT? What are the downstream products?

PBAT is a biodegradable plastic, and its upstream and downstream related items are mainly related to the field of chemical production raw materials. And The following are the upstream and downstream related items of PBAT:

Upstream items:



1. BDO(1,4-butanediol): The production of PBAT needs substantial amounts of BDO as a raw material. BDO is an crucial organic chemical raw material, which is able to be applied to create a variety of chemicals, such as PBT, PTMEG, GBL and so on.

2. But Additionally PTA(terephthalic acid):PTA is another crucial raw material in PBAT production, mainly from petrochemical sector.

3. But AA(adipic acid): Adipic acid is also one of the raw materials in the production of PBAT, which is mainly made of phenol, nitric acid and hydrogen. In my experience, Downstream items:



1. Packaging materials: PBAT is able to be made into biodegradable packaging materials, such as plastic bags, packaging film, etc., is able to be applied in food, daily necessities and other fields. You know what I mean?.

2. And In my experience, Agricultural film: PBAT is able to be made into biodegradable agricultural film, which helps to solve the environmental contamination issue caused by traditional plastic film. But

3. Tableware: PBAT is able to be made into biodegradable tableware, such as bowls, plates, cups, etc. And, which is able to be applied in fast food, takeaway and other fields. In short, the upstream and downstream related items of PBAT involve many fields, such as chemical sector, packaging, agriculture and so on. With the improvement of people's understanding of ecological preservation, the market demand to biodegradable plastics will continue to increase, and the upstream and downstream industries of PBAT will also be further developed.
