Abstract:Structural and morphological changes in the films of poly(oxybirutyrate-co-oxyvalerate) (P(OB-OV)) with poly-e-caprolactone (PCL) were studied by IR spectroscopy, DSC, and scanning electron microscopy during accelerated oxidative degradation under tests in Fenton reagent. It is shown by the DSC method that the phase separation of the P(OB-OV) and PCL components is observed in the initial mixture. The melting of various phases of P(OB-OV) is observed at temperatures of 147 °C and 157 °C, and PCL melts at a temp… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
