Analysis of a 30% Glass-filled Poly(butylene terephthalate) Polymer by XPS

We report x-ray photoemission spectra for a 30% glass-filled poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) polymer. XPS spectra were acquired with a SSI model SSX-100 instrument using monochromated Al Kα x-rays. We present the survey spectrum (binding energy 0–1000 eV) and a narrow spectrum of the C 1s and O 1s photoelectron peaks.
