Degradation studies of poly (ethylene terephthalate) yarns
Communications, Faculty Of Science, University of Ankara Series B Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 1988 Poly(ethylene terephthalate) multifilament yarn, textured yarn and staple were treated with potasium hydroxide. Time, temperature and concentration of base were seleeted as va- riables. Degradation of tlıe products was investigated in terms of percentage loss in weight, vis- cosity measurements and percent elongation at break.It was observed that ...
