Source page: https://www.materialinsights.org/chemicals/pet/links/

Every element and industry that PET resin is linked to, and how. Each pair has its own card explaining the relationships between the two.

- [Purified terephthalic acid](https://www.materialinsights.org/links/pet-resin-and-purified-terephthalic-acid/): PTA is one of PET's two building blocks, joined with MEG and then solid-stated into bottle resin, so PET bottles are a direct, steady outlet for PTA. India now protects bottle-grade PET with a $200.66 a tonne duty on Chinese resin while buying more Chinese PTA, which tends to support domestic resin makers' margins. *(researched)*
