Ceiling Temperature Determination of an Organically Catalyzed Ring-Opening Copolymerization Reaction
Abstract
This study examines the temperature at which the alternating ring-opening copolymerization of phthalic anhydride and propylene oxide becomes impossible. The ceiling temperature is important because it provides a pathway to creating a sustainable economy.
