PBT／PET共混体系的熔融行为

用差示扫描量热法（ＤＳＣ）考察了ＰＢＴ／ＰＥＴ共混体系的结晶熔融行为，在共混体系中两组份的结晶熔上均随着含量的减小而下降，熔点下降既有形结构变化因素，又有因两组份相容而引起的热力学因素。熔融热焓△Ｈｍ的变化与两组份结晶熔点的变化有相似的规律。这些结果说明在共混体系中ＰＥＴ、ＰＢＴ两组份在结晶一熔融过程中存在相互协同作用，同时也说明ＰＢＴ、ＰＥＴ两组份是晶相分离的，而非晶区是相混容的。     

PBT／PET共混体系的协同效应

ＰＢＴ、ＰＥＴ具有良好相容性，且两种聚合物分子链间存在相互作用，它们的共混体系在熔体降温结晶过程中以及溶液中均表现出协同效应。虽然ＰＢＴ、ＰＥＴ在共混体系中各自形成晶区，但熔体降温结果过程中只能观察到一个结晶放热峰，当ＰＢＴ／ＰＥＴ共混物中两组份分子链段数目相近时，熔体降温结晶峰温较低，峰形变宽，共混体系的结晶程度降低在溶液中两组份分子链段数目相近时，共混物特性粘度（η）值最大，分子链的均方根末端

用力学性能测试、ＤＭＡ、ＳＥＭ等方法研究了离聚物Ｓｕｒｌｙｎ对ＰＢＴ／ＰＰ共混体系的力学性能及形态结构的影响。结果表明，在ＰＢＴ／ＰＰ共混体系中引入少量Ｓｕｒｌｙｎ可以改善界面的粘接性，从而改善其力学性能。当共混体系中ＰＢＴ／ＰＰ的组份比不变（９０／１０）且Ｓｕｒｌｙｎ的含量为６ｐｈｒ左右时，共混物的冲击强度出现极大值；而弯曲强度在Ｓｕｒｌｙｎ含量为１－２ｐｈｒ左右时有最大值。当共混体系中Ｓｕｒｌｙｎ的含量不变（６ｐｈｒ）时，其力学性能随ＰＰ含量的增加而下降。用玻璃纤维增强共混体系，可显著提高力学性能。     

磷酸三苯酯对PBT／PET共混体系结晶行为的影响

用广角Ｘ－角线衍射法和差法扫描量热法研究了磷酸三苯酯对ＰＢＴ／ＰＥＴ共混体系结晶行为影响，结果表明：ＴＰＰＷ作为该共混体系的稳定剂，只能延长在熔融状态下酯交换反应发生的时间，ＴＰＰ含量一定时，熔融时间增加，ＰＢＴ，ＰＥＴ之间的酯交换反应同样会发生，不同熔融时间，就要求ＴＰＰ的用量也不相同。ＴＰＰ在ＰＢＴ／ＰＥＴ共混体系中没有结晶成核剂的作用，它也不改变ＰＢＴ，ＰＥＴ的结晶结构。

Discrimination of Thermoplastic Polyesters by MALDI-TOF MS and Py-GC/MS

The aim of this work is to discriminate thermoplastic polyester-polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), which cannot be easily identified by many methods. Both matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) were applied to identify these polyesters owing to their analytical ability to determining polymers' chemical structure. The three thermoplastic polyesters can be easily distinguished by MALDI-TOF MS according to their different repeated units. Py-GC/MS was used to analyze their specific pyrolyzates. The three polyesters can be identified through their characteristic pyrolysis products as well.

Inhibited transesterification of PET/PBT blends filled with silica nanoparticles during melt processing

The blends of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) undergo transesterification reactions between PET and PBT during melt processing. In this research, PET/PBT transesterification has been investigated in the presence of nano-fillers, including pure SiO₂ and silane-coupling-agent-modified SiO₂. The results show that the incorporation of SiO₂ nanoparticles inhibits PET/PBT transesterification, and the influence of pure SiO₂ is higher than modified SiO₂. The inhibition of SiO₂ on transesterification is explained by the fact that the hydroxyl end groups of PET and PBT react with the surface hydroxyl groups of SiO₂ before transesterification due to the high activity of surface hydroxyl groups of SiO₂, and the reduction of hydroxyl end groups of PET and PBT leads to the inhibition of transesterification between PET and PBT. This has been demonstrated by the experimental data of TGA, FTIR, and XPS. And the reactivity of hydroxyl end groups of PBT is higher than that of PET.     

Isothermal melt-crystallization and melting behavior for three linear aromatic polyesters

Isothermal crystallization and subsequent melting behavior for three different types of linear aromatic polyester, namely poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT), and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT), were investigated (with an emphasis on PTT in comparison with PET and PBT). These polyesters were different in the number of methylene groups (i.e. 2, 3, and 4 for PET, PTT, and PBT, respectively). Isothermal crystallization studies were carried out in a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) over the crystallization temperature range of 182-208 °C. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) technique was used to obtain information about crystal modification and apparent degree of crystallinity. The kinetics of the crystallization process was assessed by a direct fitting of the experimental data to the Avrami, Tobin, and Malkin macrokinetic models. It was found that the crystallization rates of these polyesters were in the following order: PBT>PTT>PET, and the melting of these polyesters exhibited multiple-melting phenomenon. Lastly, the equilibrium melting temperature for these polyesters was estimated based on the linear and non-linear Hoffman-Weeks (LHW and NLHW) extrapolative methods.     

Degradation mechanism of diethylene glycol units in a terephthalate polymer

Diethylene glycol (DEG) is incorporated into poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) during industrial synthesis in order to control crystallisation kinetics. DEG is known to be a weak point in the thermal degradation of PET, which is problematic during the recycling of the polymer.Studies on the thermal decomposition of the model polymer poly(diethylene glycol terephthalate) (PDEGT) have been performed using TG, DSC, TVA and spectroscopic techniques. They revealed a degradation behaviour with two distinct steps, where the first step initiates some 100 K below the degradation temperature of PET. The second step is similar to the behaviour of PET.Based on our observations, a new degradation mechanism specific to DEG units is proposed, where random ether groups along the backbone can back-bite and form cyclic oligomers. These cyclic species, containing ether moieties, are evolved at 245 °C and constitute the first of the two steps of degradation observed for PDEGT.

Some Comments on a Recent Article Dealing with Three Aliphatic-Aromatic Polyesters and Their Spectral Identification

This work discusses the results appearing in Wu et al.’s (2014) article dealing with three aliphatic-aromatic polyesters based on terephthalic acid and their spectral identification. Using an instrument equipped with a switch that allows ions with masses below 5 kDa to be discarded (ion deflector), the authors report the MALDI spectrum of a commercial poly(ethylene terephthalate) with signals up to 80 kDa. I plot the spectral intensities and fit them with a Gaussian curve. The result is carefully examined. Thereafter, attention is moved to the MALDI spectra obtained when the ion deflector is turned off. A computation that gives the number-average and the weight-average molar mass (Mn and Mw) was performed, but the result was Mn = 1362 g/mol and Mw = 1416 g/mol. These values are much too low and they cannot be used. In order to explain this failure, I modified a model developed for poly(pentylene adipate). This hypothesis is discarded and the correct explanation is found. I also discuss other types of instrumentation, for instance, Py-GC/MS combined with library-search and also NMR spectroscopy, with specific reference to the chemical shifts of the -CH2- protons in aliphatic-aromatic polyesters.     

Thermal and crystallization characteristics of poly(trimethylene terephthalate)/poly(ethylene naphthalate) blends

Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT)/poly(ethylene naphthalate) (PEN) blends were miscible in the amorphous state in all of the blend compositions studied, as evidenced by a single, composition-dependent glass transition temperature (T_g) observed for each blend composition. The variation in the T_g value with the blend composition was well predicted by the Gordon-Taylor equation, with the fitting parameter being 0.57. The cold-crystallization peak temperature decreased with increasing PTT content, while the melt-crystallization peak temperature decreased with increasing amount of the minor component. The subsequent melting behavior after both cold- and melt-crystallization exhibited melting point depression, in which the observed melting temperatures decreased with increasing amount of the minor component. During melt-crystallization, both components in the blends crystallized concurrently just to form their own crystals. The blend with 60% w/w of PTT exhibited the lowest total apparent degree of crystallinity.     

Characterization of cross-linking structure in terephthalate polyesters formed through material recycling process by pyrolysis-gas chromatography in the presence of organic alkali

Typical terephthalate polyesters such as poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were characterized by pyrolysis-gas chromatography (Py-GC) in the presence of tetramethylammonium hydroxide in terms of the cross-linking structure formed during their material recycling. In the pyrograms of PBT and PET thermally treated at 270 °C for 1 h, which were prepared as model polymers containing cross-linking structures, an additional peak was commonly observed as well as the main reactive pyrolysis products for the original polyesters such as dimethyl terephthalate. Based on the observed spectra obtained by Py-GC/mass spectrometry and Py-GC/Fourier transform infrared spectrometry measurements, this peak was assigned to the product reflecting a biphenyl-type cross-linking structure. Furthermore, in the pyrograms of kneaded PBT and PET samples also at 270 °C for a total of 1 h, which were prepared to simulate material recycling, the same peak for the cross-linking structure was also observed, although its intensity was slightly lower than that in the samples thermally treated in air. This fact verified that the biphenyl-type cross-linking structure would be considerably formed during the recycling of PBT and PET, which might in turn contribute to the deteriorated properties of the recycled materials from waste polyesters. Moreover, difference in the formation of the cross-linking between PBT and PET is discussed on the basis of the observed results.     

Miscibility and properties of poly(l-lactic acid)/poly(butylene terephthalate) blends

Binary blends of poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) containing PLLA as major component were prepared by melt mixing. The two polymers are immiscible, but display compatibility, probably due to the establishment of interactions between the functional groups of the two polyesters upon melt mixing. Electron microscopy analysis revealed that in the blends containing up to 20% of poly(butylene terephthalate), PBT particles are finely dispersed within the PLLA matrix, with a good adhesion between the phases. The PLLA/PBT 60/40 blend presents a co-continuous multi-level morphology, where PLLA domains, containing dispersed PBT units, are embedded in a PBT matrix. The varied morphology affects the mechanical properties of the material, as the 60/40 blend displays a largely enhanced resistance to elongation, compared to the blends with lower PBT content.
