Abstract
We modified poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) with sugar-based monomer isosorbide to improve the bond strength between PBS and metal interfaces and thereby alleviate the environmental problems caused by nondegradable hot-melt adhesives. We analyzed the efficiency of different catalysts in the synthesis of poly(butylene-co-isosorbide succinate) (PBIS) copolyesters. The thermal stability, thermodynamic characteristics, and melting viscosity of PBIS copolyesters were systematically evaluated by characterization. The results indicate that isosorbide can greatly improve the bond strength of the interface between PBS and the iron plate when copolyesters are used as hot-melt adhesives.
