Ethyl cellulose-block-poly(benzyl glutamate) block copolymer compatibilizers for ethyl cellulose/poly(ethylene terephthalate) blends

A block copolymer with the structure ethylcellulose- block -poly(benzy glutamate) was synthesized via ring-opening polymerization and used as a compatibilizer to produce blends of ethylcellulose and poly(ethylene terephthalate).
