Notes:
IR chemical imaging has been used to characterise the dispersion of condensed tanninadditives in a biodegradable plastic, poly(butylene succinate). By mapping key FTIR absorptions,acetylated tannin was found to remain in discrete aggregates, though the outer of these particlescontained a mixed phase with PBS. In particles 〉100 μm, PBS does not appear to ingress the tannincore, only wetting the outer region. Analysis of a second tannin derivative indicated that there was amore uniform dispersion of the additive in the PBS matrix
