Poly(butylene succinate-co-e-caprolactone) copolyesters: Enzymatic synthesis in bulk and thermal properties
This work explores for the first time the enzymatic synthesis of poly(butylene-co-e-caprolactone) (PBSCL) copolyesters in bulk using commercially available monomers (dimethyl succinate (DMS), 1,4-butanediol (BD), and e-caprolactone (CL)). A preliminary kinetic study was carried out which demonstrate...
