Published April 1991

This report evaluates the manufacturing processes for four monomers that are used primarily to make liquid crystal polymers and polyethylene naphthalate:

dimethyl-2,6-naphthalene-dicarboxylate
p-hydroxybenzoic acid
6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid
4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl.

The report contains preliminary process designs and cost estimates for manufacturing these monomers in a dedicated facility, and a process design and cost estimates for manufacturing three of them in a multiproduct shared facility.

This report includes summaries of pertinent patents for the four monomers mentioned above. Sections on the status of the industry and issues related to multi-product manufacturing are also provided.
