ABSTRACT:
A process is described for reducing the discoloration of PO3G. The discolored polymer is contacted with adsorbent and separated therefrom, for instance, by filtration. The treated polytrimethylene, preferably, has an APHA color of less than about 50 and a molecular weight of about 250 to about 5000.
