Abstract:

Aiming at the problem that the formation of a large number of cyclic oligomers in the industrialization process of current bio-based propylene terephthalate (bio-based PTT) is likely to adversely affect subsequent processing, the Soxhlet extraction method and the dissolution-precipitation method were used to characterize and analyze cyclic oligomers extracted from PTT slices, fibers and powder samples. It is reported from this research that the content of cyclic oligomers extracted from the fiber sample was 3.6%, which is about 1% higher than the slice. The main component of the oligomer is cyclic dimer, and its mass fraction is 85%-90% of the total of oligomers. Low levels of cyclic trimer, cyclic tetramer, cyclic pentamer, and cyclic heptamer are detected at the same time, and the total content of these components is about 10%-15%. The thermal stability of cyclic oligomers is found much lower than that of bio-based PTT polymers and higher than polymers in melting point, showing function of nucleating agent and could promote the crystallization of polymers.

Key words: polymer, bio-based propylene terephthalate, cyclic oligomer, solvent extraction, thermal property
