Morphological changes of poly(ethylene terephthalate) on multiple steam sterilization.
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was steam sterilized by autoclaving for 15, 30 and 60 min. The thermal properties, T m, delta-H and percent crystallinity were determined using differential scanning calorimetry.

Application of poly(ethylene terephthalate)-graft-polystyrene membranes in pervaporation
Gamma radiation-induced grafting of styrene (ST) onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films was used to prepare poly(ethylene terephtalate)/polystyrene (PET-g-PST) membranes having various degrees of grafting.
