Journal ArticleDOI

Production of bio-based 2,5-furan dicarboxylate polyesters: Recent progress and critical aspects in their synthesis and thermal properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the progress and fundamental aspects for the synthesis of bio-based 2,5-FDCA polyesters and their thermal properties are highlighted, as well as some problems associated with the coloration and successful syntheses of polyesters with high molecular weights.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystallization and melting behavior of three biodegradable poly(alkylene succinates). A comparative study

TL;DR: In this paper, the melting properties of polyesters based on succinic acid and respective aliphatic diols, with 2-4 methylene groups, were studied, and the odd-even effect was observed for the melting temperatures of these polymers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystallization kinetics and nucleation activity of filler in polypropylene/surface-treated SiO2 nanocomposites

TL;DR: In this article, isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of polypropylene (PP)/surface-treated SiO 2 nanocomposites were extensively studied, and the effective energy barrier was estimated as a function of the relative degree of crystallinity using the isoconversional analysis of calorimetric data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic mechanical and morphological studies of isotactic polypropylene/fumed silica nanocomposites with enhanced gas barrier properties

TL;DR: In this paper, maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) was used as a compatibilizer to improve the dispersion degree of the nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of poly(ethylene furandicarboxylate) polyester using monomers derived from renewable resources: thermal behavior comparison with PET and PEN

TL;DR: Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that PEF is thermally stable up to 325 °C and the temperature for the maximum degradation rate was 438 °C, a little lower than those for PET or PEN.
