| 1. | This colourless solid is an isomer of phthalic acid and terephthalic acid.
|
| 2. | It is an isomer of isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid.
|
| 3. | It is the diester formed from terephthalic acid and methanol.
|
| 4. | Terephthalic acid was the main raw ingredient in polyester fiber.
|
| 5. | This compound is formed in 0.5 % yield in the production terephthalic acid from p-xylene.
|
| 6. | By 2006, global purified terephthalic acid ( PTA ) demand had exceeded 30 million tonnes.
|
| 7. | The monomers which could be used to create this polymer are ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid:
|
| 8. | The resultant crude terephthalic acid can be purified by recrystallization to yield material suitable for re-polymerization:
|
| 9. | The venture will produce paraxylene, a raw material of purified terephthalic acid ( PTA ) used in polyester.
|
| 10. | "' Terephthalic acid "'( a portmanteau of the turpentine-producing tree PET, used to make clothing and plastic bottles.
