SYNOPSIS
The occurrence of ester-interchange reactions during PET/PBT blend processing has been confirmed by I3C-NMR measurements. The limitations of the method for precise quantification of the extent of reaction between high molecular weight polyester blends have also been pointed out. Titanium alkoxide has been confirmed as an efficient catalyst, and, within experimental precision, the stabilizing effect of triphenyl phosphite addition has been demonstrated. 0 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Optimum conditions for the synthesis of PEI of considerable molecular weight have been established. Poly(ethylene terephthalate-co-isophthalate) (PETI) has been prepared through the ester interchange reaction of a blend of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene isophthalate) (PEI).

Blends of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were prepared by solution casting from 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane. The miscibility and interchange reactions in DGEBA-PET blends were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy. PET
Blends of carboxyl functionalized poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) and poly-(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were shown to undergo an ester interchange reaction during melt blending. Pendent carboxyl functionality randomly incorporated along the PPS chain reacts with the ester moiety of PET to form a gra
