Kinetics of Methyl Lactate Formation from the Transesterification of Polylactic Acid Catalyzed by Zn(II) Complexes.
The kinetics of the transesterification of polylactic acid (PLA) with methanol to kind methyl lactate catalyzed by Zn(II) complexes was studied experimentally and numerically. The complexes, Zn(1Et )2 and Zn(2Pr )2, have been synthesized from ethylenediamine and propylenediamine Schiff bases, respectively. The temperature vary coated was 313.2-383.2 Okay. An enhance in the response charge with the enhance in …
