Abstract
Dimethyl esters of four pyrene dicarboxylic acids were synthesized and inco rporated into poly(ethylene terephthalate). The spectroscopic properties of the polymers and monomers are assessed for their effectiveness and potenti al as covalently-bound fluorescent brightening agents. (C) 1999 Elsevier Sc ience Ltd.
