Cocrystallization Model for Synthetic Biodegradable Poly(butylene adipate-c o -butylene terephthalate)
Abstract
Synthetic biodegradable poly(butylene adipate-co-butylene terephthalate), P(BA-co-BT), with 56 mol % butylene adipate, BA, was characterized by solid-state NMR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, computer modeling, and polarization microscopy. The NMR study showed the presence of BA and butylene terephthalate, BT. T(1C) NMR measurements proved that some BA and BT units were in crystalline regions. Thermal analysis showed one …
