- Abstract
The article discusses research on the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide through a set of high barrier polyester blends. A Doolittle equation was used to determine the diffusion coefficients and fraction free volume (FFV) of oxygen and carbon dioxide transported through a set of random copolymer films based on poly(ethylene terepthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN). The research concluded that the PET/PEN copolymers are nonsynergistic blends due to their increased rigidity.
