Identification of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Polymer Using X-ray Diffractogarm Method: Part 1

Abstract: X-Ray Diffraction XRD method was used to identify six PET polymers samples collected from different dump sites around the city, they were washed crushed and characterised and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was carried out on the samples for identification and the results were compared with literature. The diffractogram finger print patterns generated by the samples were studied and informed discussions were made. The XRD analysis showed that six samples of the PET polymer studied showed triclinic crystalline… Show more

“…The appearance of new peaks at 27 and 29 2θ with a higher mass fraction of PET confirms that some residual PET remains on the surface after the formation of char . The peak at 20.6–21.2°, ∼27, ∼36, ∼44, and ∼47 2θ coincides with quartz carbon. When comparing the char XRD spectra from CS only to that of chars from CS-PET, there are more pronounced peaks of crystalline quartz carbon. The crystalline quartz peaks decrease in intensity with further addition of plastic.…”

“…The crystalline quartz peaks decrease in intensity with further addition of plastic. All CS:PET ratios show a peak at 24.3° 2θ, which is a peak reflective of PET . The XRD spectra indicate that there is residual PET on the surface of the char at detectable levels after pyrolysis at 500 °C.…”
