Surface structure and properties of poly-(ethylene terephthalate) hydrolyzed by alkali and cutinase

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the surface properties of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films by using FTIR spectroscopy (ATR mode) and showed that both enzyme and acid treatments induced structural and conformational rearrangements with a consequent increase in crystallinity in both amorphous and crystalline films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrolysis of polyethyleneterephthalate by p-nitrobenzylesterase from Bacillus subtilis.

TL;DR: PET‐hydrolase active strains produced clearing zones and led to the release of the 3PET hydrolysis products terephthalic acid (TA), benzoic Acid (BA), 2‐Hydroxyethyl benzoate (HEB), and mono‐(2‐hydroxyethyl) terecularate (MHET) in 3PET supplemented liquid cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzymatic surface modification and functionalization of PET: A water contact angle, FTIR, and fluorescence spectroscopy study

TL;DR: In this paper, a lypolytic enzyme was applied to polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to investigate the changes induced by a lysergic enzyme on the surface properties.

Enzymatic surface modification and functionalisation of PET: a water contact angle, FTIR, and fluorescence spectroscopy study

TL;DR: FTIR analysis showed that the surface of BrNP‐modified PET acquired a more crystalline character, and fluorescence results indicate that the enzymatically treated PET films are more reactive towards BrNP.
