KONTINUIERLICHE HERSTELLUNG VON POLY(TRIMETHYLENTEREPHTHALAT)

摘要

This invention relates to a continuous process for production of poly(trimethylene terephthalate), wherein gaseous 1,3-propanediol by-product resulting from the process is condensed in a condenser, the total amount of any trimethylene terephthalate cyclic dimer and poly(trimethylene terephthalate) in the condensed by-product 1,3-propanediol is adjusted, and a portion of the condensed by-product is recycled to the condenser while another portion is recycled back into the process.
