Abstract
Abstract The alcoholysis of PET with diols in the presence of dibutyltinoxide was carried out in a twin‐screw extruder with residence times of 1 min and without solvent. The reaction led to scissions of PET chains and to the synthesis of oligoester α,ω‐diols with average number molecular weights of about 1000 g·mol —1 characterised by conventional techniques such as NMR, SEC and MALDI‐TOF. The alcoholysis kinetics was studied with a rheological tool under selected conditions, and it was shown that this reaction is quite compatible with the residence times in an extruder. This study clearly shows that the oligoesters synthesised by reactive extrusion have characteristics similar to the oligoesters synthesised by batch processes over many hours. Furthermore, the melting temperature of these oligoesters can be controlled between room temperature and 220°C by using diols with different structures for the alcoholysis.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
