Melting Point Relationships for Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Systems

  • Conference paper
Analytical Calorimetry

Abstract

This investigation was undertaken in an effort to establish a value for the heat of fusion of poly(ethylene terephthalate) using differential thermal analysis (DTA) as the tool for measuring the melting point depression of the polymer due to added solvent.
