Notes:
Temperature dependences of isochoric heat capacity, temperatures and enthalpies of physical transitions for polyglycolide, poly(β-propiolactone), poly(γ-butyrolactone), poly(λ-valerolactone), poly(ε-caprolactone), polyundecanolactone, polytridecanolactone, and polypentadecanolactone were studied between 13,8 and (340 - 550) K in a vacuum adiabatic calorimeter within a limit of experimental error of about 0,2%. From the results obtained the functions H0 - H0 (O), S0 (T), and G0 (T) - H0 (O) were calculated over the range 0 to (340 - 550) K. Zero entropy of glassy polymers, Sg0 (O), and difference in zero enthalpies of glassy and crystalline states, Hg (O) - Hc0 (O), were estimated also. Regularities of changes in thermodynamic properties of polylactones, in dependence of the number of atomic groups in a repeating unit, were found that made it possible to evaluate the properties of some polylactones the corresponding experimental data of which are not known.
