01Extract
Toray utilizes naphtha procured from suppliers to make petrochemical products. Naphtha is isolated from crude oil through a heating process that takes advantage of the oil's various components' different evaporation temperatures.
* This step is not done in the Toray.
02Process
Toray subjects naphtha to various chemical reactions to isolate several different substances, which are then used as base materials for a variety of our products.
p-diethylbenzene efficiently absorbs and isolates paraxylene (PX), a main component in polyester used in polyester fibers and PET bottles.
