13 PET Synthesis - Esterification / Hydrolysis Esterification is the first step in PET synthesis, but also occurs in all subsequent stages Esterification is an equilibrium reaction The equilibrium constant is close to unity The esterification process involves three phases - gas / liquid / solid Esterification reactions are acid catalyzed, TPA behaves both as reactant and as catalyst Polydispersity index (Flory): D = 2 vs. measured: D < 2 13 Reactors with high surface area to volume ratios reduce the esterification time Kinetic data mostly from model systems at low temperatures
14 PET Synthesis - Molecular Weight Distribution of Prepolymer
15 PET Synthesis - Transesterification / Glycolysis Transesterification is an equilibrium reaction Vacuum (p = Pa) influences the (macro kinetic) rate of polycondensation Melt viscosity increases during polycondensation from approximately 0.01 Pas to Pas Polydispersity index (Flory): D = 2 vs. measured: D = 3-6 Co-monomers (IPA, CHDM) increase the reaction time 15 Reactors with high surface area to volume ratios reduce the polycondensation time
