Abstract

See full text

A method for synthesizing poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) by combination of melt and solid state polycondensation using an organic guanidine as a main catalyst. The ternary catalyst system includes a main catalyst, a first cocatalyst, and a second cocatalyst. The main catalyst is organic guanidine; the first cocatalyst is titanate ester or zirconate ester; and the second cocatalyst is metallic oxide. The method includes: 1) adding 1,4-butanediol (BDO), adipic acid (AA), terephthalic acid (TA), and a ternary catalyst system to a reaction still; conducting an oligo-polycondensation to yield a oligomer having the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of between 3.0×103 and 4.0×103; allowing the oligomer to perform a melt polycondensation (MP) to yield a prepolymer with medium Mw of between 1.5×104 and 3.0×104; and 2) crushing the solid prepolymer into granules of 30-40 meshes, and then allowing the granules to undergo solid state polycondensation to yield the final PBAT product.
