Antistatic property and crystallization behavior of antistatic poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were studied by feeding antistatic agents into polycondensation reactor. Glass transition and melting temperature of antistatic PET were decreased by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) component of antistatic agent. The crystallization rate of antistatic PET was inhibited by decreasing crystallization temperature. Thermal properties and crystallization behavior was affected POAG content of antistatic agent rather than sodium alkylsulfonate of it. The main antistatic component of antistatic agent was POAG. The main role of sodium alkylsulfonate was increasing melt viscosity of antistatic poly(ethylene terephalate) polymer.
