Abstract
A branched polymer, a preparation method thereof and a method for preparing a foam are provided. The branched polymer is a transesterification product of a composition, and the composition includes 100 parts by weight of polyethylene terephthalate and 0.5-2.0 parts by weight of polyol. The branched polymer has an inherent viscosity of from 1.2 dL/g to 1.6 dL/g, a number average molecular weight of from 75,000 g/mol to 90,000 g/mol, a polydispersity index from 3.0 to 6.0, a melt index from 0.8 g/10 min to 7.5 g/10 min, a shear viscosity from 800 Pa·s to 1900 Pa·s, and a melt strength from 30 cN to 80 cN.
