Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT)

Cost-effective Performance


Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) combines excellent mechanical and electrical properties with robust chemical resistance. It is a semi-crystalline polymer first introduced to the marketplace by Ticona as Celanex® PBT. This technological base provides foundation, not only for the Celanex® PBT family of materials, but also for Ticona´s high-performance line of Vandar® Polyester alloys.
