PEF - What is it?
First, a little chemistry to start up the brain. Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) is mainly synthesized from 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) and ethylene glycol. FDCA can be sourced from biogenic carbohydrates making it an important building block for sustainable chemistry. With this mainly bio-based feedstock as an asset, companies like Avantium in the Netherlands set out to substitute the incumbent aromatic polyesters like PET.

PEF(Polyethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate CAS：28728-19-0) was referred to as the next generation polyester which exhibits great potential to replace polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The production of PEF can reduce the non-renewable energy use (NREU) to approximately 40% to 50% while GHG emissions can be reduced by approximately 45% to 55%, compared to PET, for the system from cradle to grave.
