NEW YORK, March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The global polybutylene terephthalate market size is estimated to grow by USD 659.75 mn from 2023 to 2027, according to Technavio. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period. The PBT's adoption in the manufacturing sector is significant due to its high strength, rigidity, and ability to take on various colors. This material offers toughness, low creep, and resistance to a wide range of chemicals, solvents, oils, and greases. PBT thermoplastic materials are essential in the medical industry for manufacturing medical devices, drug delivery devices, injection pens, and autoinjectors. In the automotive sector, PBT is used for producing components like fuel system components, windshield wiper covers, connectors, and seat belts. Its excellent electrical resistance and dielectric strength make it suitable for electrical and electronic components. The production of PBT involves the polycondensing of terephthalic acid and 1,4–butanediol using special catalysts.
