Abstract
These oligoesters were used to depolymerize poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) in the presence of zinc acetate to yield new types of glycolysates. The oligoesters and the glycolysates are characterized by 1H NMR, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analyses and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). These analyses revealed the structure of the different glycolysates.
