Editor’s note：Bio-based polyester is an important kind of eco-friendly polyester products, and it has attracted more and more attention in some developed regions including EU, US and Japan. Some enduse brands also join the team to drive the development of bio-based polyester, such as the top soft drink brands Coca-Cola and Pepsi. However, there is a consensus that bio-based polyester can hardly totally replace the petroleum-based polyester in a long time, due to its economy and technology bottlenecks.
