Dimethyl Terephthalate (DMT, CAS 120-61-6) is a high-purity aromatic organic ester and core polyester monomer. Our DMT powder is manufactured by an advanced process, delivering milder reaction conditions and lower impurity levels, ideal for the production of high-grade polyester products. The annual production capacity is 10,000 tons. It appears as white crystalline flakes or white granular solid at room temperature, odorless, stable in normal storage environment.
