The films’ thermal characteristics were assessed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC; PerkinElmer Thermal Analysis, USA) [89]. A 5–7 mg film sample was taken in the sample pan. The reference pan was left empty. Melting transition temperatures (T) of various films were recorded while continuously purging with N2 gas with a 40 mL/min flow rate and a heating scan rate of 10 °C/min from 0–400 °C. Each film peak’s transition temperature and enthalpy (∆H) values were calculated in triplicate, and the results were averaged.
