FTIR Spectroscopy Data on PHBV Isothermal Crystallization Across Temperatures

Poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-valerate) (PHBV) systems with 7, 12, and 21 mol% hydroxyvalerate content were analyzed via Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The dataset records isothermal crystallization data across a temperature range from ambient to 150 °C.

Use Cases

• Analyze FTIR spectral changes during isothermal crystallization to model polymer kinetics for different HV content levels (7, 12, 21 mol%).
• Compare crystallization behavior between PHB and PHBV systems using FTIR data collected at various temperatures.
• Investigate the relationship between crystallization temperature and specific FTIR absorption bands for PHBV polymers.

Strengths

• Data covers three distinct PHBV copolymer compositions (7, 12, and 21 mol% HV content).
• Experiments span a defined temperature range from ambient conditions to 150 °C.

Limitations

• Sample size and specific data dimensions (rows, columns) are not provided, limiting assessment of statistical power.
• The dataset appears focused on laboratory conditions, which may not directly represent industrial processing environments.
