Abstract: | The kinetics of polymerization of D,L-lactide and glycolide are studied via differential scanning calorimetry at different temperatures and concentrations of the catalyst tin octanoate. For the polymerization of D,L-lactide and glycolide, the enthalpies are determined to be ?17 ± 1.5 and 16.5 ± 1.5 kJ/mol, respectively. The time to attain reaction equilibration decreases from 300 to 100 min with an increase in temperature from 200 to 220°C. The time of reaction at 200°C decreases from 280 to 100 min as the concentration of the catalyst is increased from 500 to 830 ppm. When the polymerization of glycolide is conducted at temperatures below 200°C, the reaction is accompanied by crystallization of polyglycolide and an increase in the total enthalpy of the process. |
