## Abstract Chemical modification of the hydrophilic surface of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was examined by the selective alkylation of the acid salt on the surface using acyl bromides as an electrophile with catalytic potassium fluoride. The hydrophobicity of the PET surface increased as th

## Abstract Two simple methods are described that utilize melt or dilute solution rheology in characterizing transfomations in molecular architecture induced on an originally linear PET during the early stages of reactive extrusion. A plausible senario for the shape variation and relative difficult
Six organic solvents with solubility parameters close to those of poly(ethy1ene terephthalate) (PET), namely, dimethyl sulfoxide, y-butyrolactone, dimethyl formamide, pyridine, tetrachlorethane, and chlorobezene, were selected as swelling agents to promote the incorporation and the subsequent polyme
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
