Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for producing low-acid polyalkylene terephthalate from which MPO can be advantageously manufactured. In certain embodiments, the acid content of commercially available polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) is reduced by adding a small amount of 1,4-butane diol (BDO) to a solution of the commercially available PBT in refluxing ortho-dichlorobenzene (oDCB) solvent.
