【 摘 要 】

The production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from sugars dehydration is an alternative for obtaining starting materials for the production of polyesters, polyamides and polyurethanes, due to the development of the new materials not derived from petroleum. Moreover, by oxidizing the HMF, the 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) can be obtained, which can replace the terephthalic acid (TA) (from petroleum) in the polymers production as poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). The replacement of TA with materials derived from renewable sources is of great interest from an environmental and sustainable point of view.
