| Abstract | Specific interactions, growth kinetics, and dendritic morphology in poly(ethylene succinate) (PESu) biodegradably modified with various contents of tannic acid (TA) were characterized using differential scanning analysis, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, polarized-light optical microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Strong interactions and highly retarded growth between PESu and a macromolecular ester with polyphenol groups, TA, interaction-induced highly retarded growth rates for the PESu/TA (80:20) composition are proven to lead to single-crystal-like dendrites when crystallized at high crystallization temperature (T c). At T c = 70 °C, the growth rate for neat PESu is 12 μm/min while it is dramatically depressed to one tenth-fold at 1.5 μm/min with 20 wt.% TA in the blend. Strong specific interactions between the carbonyl group of polyesters and the phenolic hydroxyl group of TA are confirmed by (1) the blend’s glass transition temperature (T g)–composition relationship exhibits a sigmoidal curve, well fitted by the Kwei T g model for miscible blends with large negative q = −90; (2) thermal analysis on crystal melting revealed an interaction parameter χ = −0.64 between PESu and TA; and (3) IR peak shifting analyzed using two-dimensional FTIR technique. A comparative blend of another polyester poly(hexamethylene sebacate) with TA, lacking the specific interactions, does not exhibit such single crystals upon similar melt crystallization. Fig. 1 Using thermal and spectroscopy analyses, the strong interactions between poly(ethylene succinate) and a macromolecular ester with polyphenol groups, tannic acid, have been proven to result in miscibility with strong interactions and highly retarded growth, which together lead to AFM-revealed diamond-shaped single crystals packed in a perpendicularly grown terrace-like pattern. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
