Abstract
Experimental results reveal that the PBSCs containing 1,3/1,4-CHDM in total diol with less than 50Â mol% are crystallizable, while those containing 1,3/1,4-CHDM with more than 50Â mol% are amorphous. The biodegradability test results suggest that PBSCs can be classified as surface-eroding polymers with a random endo-type scission. Surface hydrophilicity of PBSCs was the predominant effect on enzymatic hydrolysis, not crystallinity.
