Synthesis and Crystallization of Poly(butylenes succinate-block-butylene sebacate)

Article Preview

Abstract:

A series of aliphatic biodegradable poly (butylene succinate-block-butylene sebacate) (PBSuBSe) copolyesters were synthesized by incorporation of PBSe into the PBSu molecular chains. The molecular weight, crystallization behaviors and the crystal structure of the copolyesters were investigated by using gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), respectively. The copolyesters might be potentially useful as the biodegradable materials.
