Description

Poly(cyclohexanedimethylene terephthalate) (PCT) is semicrystalline polyester commonly used in injection molding and composite applications. Its high glass transition and melting temperatures relative to other polyesters give it superior thermal performance. Most commercial formulations with PCT include a filler or reinforcement.
