Acetic acid is a very important organic chemical raw material, widely used in many industries. In many industries that use acetic acid, refined terephthalic acid (PTA) industry consumes more acetic acid.
In 2023, PTA will hold the largest share in the acetic acid application segment. PTA is mainly used in the production of polyester products, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, polyester fiber and polyester film, which are widely used in textile, packaging and other fields.
In addition, acetic acid is also used in the production of ethylene acetate, acetate (such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, etc.), acetic anhydride, chloroacetic acid and other chemical products, but also used as a solvent in pesticides, medicine and dyes and other industries. For example, vinyl acetate is used to make protective coatings, adhesives, and plastics; Acetate can be used as solvent; Acetic anhydride is used in the production of acetate fiber, medicine, dyes, etc. Chloroacetic acid is used in the production of pesticides, medicine, dyes and so on.
In general, acetic acid has important applications in many industrial fields such as chemical industry, synthetic fiber, medicine, rubber, food additives, dyeing and weaving. With the development of various industries, its application areas may continue to expand.
