English term or phrase: 3 mole percent
PET resins are long-chain crystalline polymers prepared by the condensation of ethylene glycol with dimethyl terephthalate or terephthalic acid. PET copolymer resins are prepared in a similar way, except that they may also contain a small amount of either isophthalic acid (not more than "3 mole percent") or 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol (not more than 5 mole percent). Polymerization is conducted under controlled conditions of heat and vacuum, with the aid of catalysts and stabilizers.

agree  Igor Kazmierski: ou 3 mole pourcent, 3mol%. Encore un cas où le calque de l'anglais se rencontre fréquemment. Mais la proposition de Françoise est la plus correcte.
