The siloxane copolyesters prepared were characterized by FTIR, H-1-NMR spectroscopy, solution viscosity, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray diffraction. The effect of incorporation of eugenol end-capped siloxane was studied on the properties of BPA/DPI/DPT copolyesters. The glass-transition temperature of copolyester was decreased from 184 to 70 degrees C by incorporation of 20% of eugenol endcapped siloxane. All copolyesters were found to be soluble in commonly used aprotic polar solvents and had film-forming properties.
