## Abstract Glass transition, cold crystallization, premelt crystallization, and melting in polyethylene terephthalate and copolyesters have been studied by differential thermal analysis. The transitions are affected by changing the chemical composition of the polyesters through replacing one monom

Linear polyesters of terephthalic acid of general formula --O--CO--C6H~--CO--O--(CHz),--(where n varied from 2 to 10) were irradiated with 6Β°Co v-rays. Irradiations were carried out at room temperature at a dose rate of 1"5 Mrad/hr to give a total dose of 1000 Mrad. DTA analysis showed that the numb
Two series of polyesters have been synthesized, one based on terephthalic acid and the other based on 2,6-naphthalene-dicarboxylic acid. Three diols were used: ethylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol and 1,10-decanediol. The polymers have been characterized and their thermal and radiation stabilities examin
