Thermodynamic properties of polylactones

Thermodynamic properties of polylactones - Makromol. Chem., 185(6), p.1235-1253, 1984 .

Temperature dependences of isochoric heat capacity, temperatures and enthalpies of physical transitions for polyglycolide, poly(B-propiolactone), poly(y-butyrolactone), poly(b-valero lactone), POlY(E-caprolactone), polyundecanolactone, polytridecanolactone, and polypentade canolactone were studied between 13,8 and (340-550)K in a vacuum adiabatic calorimeter within a limit of experimental error oC about 0,2070. From the results obtained the functions ¡¡O (T)-¡¡O (O), SO (T), and 00 (T)-¡¡O (O)were calculated over the range O to (340 -550)K.
