Technology for the synthesis of polyesters based on 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid

Technology for the synthesis of polyesters based on 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid

Esterification of 2,5-FDCA with monohydric alcohols in the presence of an acid catalyst.

It was developed taking into account the optimal conditions for carrying out esterification reactions of 2,5 - furandicarboxylic acid and includes the entire range of equipment and automation elements in accordance with the production technology. The unit allows chemical processes to be carried out at elevated temperatures and pressures, including esterification, reduction, oxidation, and hydrothermal synthesis processes.

Installation characteristics:

  • Reactor volume - 725 ml;
  • Operating temperature - 20 - 200 ° C;
  • Working pressure - 0.1 - 2 MPa;
  • The possibility of supplying various gases to the reactor during synthesis.
