The physical aging of three amorphous polyesters, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene napthalate, and polycyclohexane dimethanol terephthalate, was characterized by enthalpy relaxation via the Tool-Narayanaswamy methodology. Subtle differences in the activation energy, relaxation times, and dis

Sixteen degradable, tyrosine-derived polyarylates with well-defined chemical structures were used to study the effect of polymer structure on the glass transition temperature and enthalpy relaxation kinetics (physical aging). These polyarylates compose a model system where the number of methylene gr
The physical aging behavior of an isotropic amorphous polyimide possessing a glass transition temperature of approximately 239Β°C was investigated for aging temperatures ranging from 174 to 224Β°C. Enthalpy recovery was evaluated as a function of aging time following sub-T g annealing in order to asse
