Abstract

Summary: Copolyesters of terephthalic acid with bis(hydroxyethyl ether) of bisphenol A (BHEEB) in different molar ratios have been synthesized by reactive blending from terephthalate polyesters and by melt polycondensation from the monomers. By this way, bisphenol A groups were inserted in the polyester chains with the aim to obtain polyesters with improved mechanical properties. The insertion of the BHEEB into the polyester backbone is quantitative and does not give rise to side reactions. These copolyesters can be obtained by the chemical recycling of commercial polymers; indeed BHEEB can be synthesized by chemical recycling of bisphenol A polycarbonate and may be incorporated in the polyester by reactive blending with recycled terephthalate polyesters. A new method for BHEEB synthesis by chemical recycling of PC is also presented.

Glass transition temperature (T~g~) as function of BHEEB content for copolyesters prepared by reactive blending BHEEB with terephthalate polyesters.
