Extraction of Oligomers From Poly(ethylene terephthalate) by Microwave-assisted Extraction
1997
A rapid, alternative technique for the extraction of low molecular
weight oligomers from poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) polymer film is
reported. Traditionally, PET has been extracted using liquid–solid
Soxhlet extraction but this has proved to be extremely time consuming. In
this work, cyclic trimer and other low molecular weight oligomers have
been successfully extracted from PET film using microwave-assisted
extraction (MAE). The use of MAE has been evaluated using a range of
organic solvents. The determination and identification of the extracts has
been performed using HPLC.
