And Performance

To recycle the solid wastes, the hydrotalcite-like compounds (HTLcs) were prepared from the magnesia flue gas desulfurization residues (MFGDR). The HTLcs as prepared and the products from degradation of Poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TG) , x-ray powder diffraction (XRD) , fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) methods. Effects of calcining temperature and alkaline of solution on the structure and performance of HTLcs were studied. The main product of alcoholysis of PET was bis-hydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET). The catalyst shows a potential application in solid waste treatment and recycle.

Plastic pollution is one of the crucial global challenges nowadays, and biodegradation is a promising approach to manage plastic waste in an environment-friendly and cost-effective way. In this study we identified the strain of fungus Trichoderma viride GZ1, which was characterized by particularly high pectinolytic activity. Using differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy techniques, and viscosity measurements we showed that three-month incubation of polylactide and polyethylene terephthalate in the presence of the fungus lead to significant changes of the surface of polylactide. Further, to gain insight into molecular mechanisms underneath the biodegradation process, western blot hybridization was used to show that in the presence of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) in laboratory conditions the fungus produced hydrophobin proteins. The mycelium adhered to the plastic surface, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, possibly due to the presence of hydrophobins. Further, using atomic force microscopy we demonstrated for the first time the formation of hydrophobin film on the surface of aliphatic polylactide (PLA) and PET by T. viride GZ1. This is the first stage of research that will be continued under environmental conditions, potentially leading to a practical application.

Crystallization From The Melt

The melting and recrystallization behavior of Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/ Attapulgite(At)nanocomposites after isothermal crystallization from the melt was studied by Step-scan differential scanning calorimetry (SDSC). The influence of At contents, crystallization temperature and crystallization time on the melting process were examined. Two melting endotherms(in the SDSC CP.A curves, reversible part) and one recrystallization exotherm (in the SDSC CP.IsoK curves, irreversible part)of PET/At nanocomposites after isothermal crystallization were observed during the melt process. This ascribes to the melting-recrystallization mechanism .The low temperature endotherm attributes to the melting of primary crystal formed during the isothermal treating and the high temperature endotherm resulting from the melting of recrystallization materials. The reason why more recrystallization happened with the increase of At content was given and the process of recrystallization was described in detail. The effects of crystal perfection and recrystallization were minimized by increasing of crystallization temperature and time.

This study investigated the thermal properties of ester-type easy cationic dyeable poly(ethylene terephthalate) (ECDP) polymers using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), therogravimetric analysis (TGA). The mass ratios of 5-sodium sulfo bis(-hydroxyethyl) isophthalate(SIPE) for ECDP polymers were 2.8%, 5.5%, 6.8%, respectively. The fourth monomers were diethylene glycol adipate (DGA), diethylene glycol succinate (DGS) and diethylene glycol subacate (DES) with different contents. The results suggested that the Tg of ester-type ECDP decreased with the increasing the molecule weight of the fourth monomer at fixed SIPE and fourth monomer contents. The Tch of ECDP polymer to be lower than that of the CDP polymer with the same SIPE content. And it decreased as SIPE and fourth monomer contents increased, it also decreased with the increasing of the molecule weight of the fourth monomer given the same SIPE content. The effect of the ester-type soft segments reduced the Tm of ECDP. The thermal stability of ECDP polymer was less than PET and CDP polymers, and it decreased with increasing SIPE content, but increased with the ester-type fourth monomer content increasing.

Pet Crystallization

The effect of dimethyl-5-sodiosulfoisophthalate, SIP, on poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, crystallization has been studied using in situ high-temperature x-ray diffraction, HTXRD. At low levels of SIP modification, PET-like crystallinity was observed. At high SIP levels, clustering of polyester ionomers was observed and crystallization was significantly suppressed. The HTXRD data along with differential scanning calorimetry, DSC, and small angle x-ray scattering, SAXS, indicate that the change from bulk crystallization to bulk ionomer formation occurred when 8-12 mol% of the diester linkages contained SIP.

Melting And Crystallization

Poly (ethylene terephthalate)/poly (trimethylene terephthalate) (PET/PTT) blends were prepared and their melting and crystallization properties were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The glass transition temperatures suggest apparently that PET and PTT have good miscibility at amorphous state. The blends with more PET content less likely undergo a melting/recrystallization process during DSC heating scan. In the blends, PET component with higher supercooling degree will crystallize first, and then the crystallites of PET will be the nucleating agents for PTT, which greatly improves the crystallization rate of PTT.

ABSTRACTDielectric properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were measured over a frequency range of 10 KHz to 2.45 GHz and a temperature range of 20 to 110°C. Relaxation peaks were identified at 1) fixed frequency with variable temperatures, and 2) fixed temperature with variable frequencies. The crystallinity of poly (ethylene terephthalate) was measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Relationships between crystallinity, dielectric properties, and location of the dielectric relaxation peak on the frequency and temperature scales were studied for poly(ethylene terephthalate). Also, the dielectric loss factor decreases with increased crystallinity at 2.45 GHz and 4 GHz within the temperature range studied.
