Investigation of the state and distribution of water in poly(ethylene terephthalate)/polyethylene glycol copolymers with various molecular weight of polyethylene glycol

Abstract: Poly(ethylene terephthalate)/polyethylene glycol (PETG) copolymers with molecular weight of PEG varied from 800 to 20,000 g/mol were synthesized by melt macromolecular interesterification method. The results of contact angle and water adsorption capacity reveal that the molecular weight of PEG has a positive effect on the hydrophilic behavior of PETG copolymers. The interaction between water molecule and PETG copolymer was investigated through each relaxation time component by the Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill seq… Show more

“…These two kinds of water proton relaxation times represent two kinds of water molecules (adsorbed water and free water) in the Na-MMT–water system. Thus, the adsorbed water content ( m ad ) of Na-MMT can be calculated by the following eq Here, m f = m w – m ad .…”

“…33 In the recent decade, low-eld nuclear magnetic resonance is attracting attention as a rapid, nondestructive and low-cost technique in the materials science. 34,35 The state and distribution of water in polymers can be determined by LF-NMR method while high-resolution NMR may destroy the mobility of water absorbed in polymer because of higher frequency pulse. 36 The state and distribution of water protons in matrix are well reected by LF-NMR.…”

“…Attributed to poly­(ethylene glycol) (PEG-600), a highly hydrophilic polymer, the surface hydrophilicity of the developed membranes was significantly enhanced with the addition of the additive polymer. Since polyethylene glycol is used in polyester modification and the hydrophilic modification effect is more prominent, the modifier of polyethylene glycol series was selected for the hydrophilic modification of PBAT in this paper. …”
