For functional apparel and athletic shoes, rBHET can replace some petroleum-based raw materials and combined with other polyesters, such as rTPEE (recycled thermoplastic polyurethane), to create high-value athleticshoe midsoles, wading shoes, or other eco-friendly functional fabrics.
Directly being converted into a new generation of PET, rBHET can also serve as an environmental-friendly raw material for the production of various chemical products such as biodegradable polyesters and water-based epoxy emulsions.
