Study the effect of alkyl substitution of monomers on properties of polyesters / Kenneth Bhengu

This study concerned the synthesis of modified terephthalic acid monomers and branched dialcohols for the synthesis of polyesters with different properties. Monomers were prepared by esterification of terephthalic acid (TPA) and the alkylation of the ester dimethyl terephthalate (DMT). If alkylation...
