Preparation of Bio-Based Polyamide Elastomer by Using Green Plasticizers.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this work was to study the effects of three green plasticizers H?O, glycerol, and soybean oil, on the properties of bio-based BDIS polyamides. The BDIS polyamides synthesized from the following biomass monomers: 1,4-butanediamine (BD), 1,10-decanediamine (DD), itaconic acid (IA), and sebacic acid (SA). It is interesting to note that the amorphous BDIS (IA-80%) polyamide was changed from the glassy state to the rubbery state after water soaking and induced crystallization at the same time. The H?O-plasticized non-crosslinked BDIS (IA-80%) polyamides can be very useful for the preparation of physical water gel. The glycerol- and soybean oil-plasticized BDIS (IA-80%) polyamides displayed excellent toughness. The plasticized BDIS (IA-80%) polyamides were characterized by Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), mechanical testing, and X-ray diffraction (XRD).

Understanding Marine Biodegradation of Bio-Based Oligoesters and Plasticizers.

Project description:The study reports the enzymatic synthesis of bio-based oligoesters and chemo-enzymatic processes for obtaining epoxidized bioplasticizers and biolubricants starting from cardoon seed oil. All of the molecules had MW below 1000 g mol-1 and were analyzed in terms of marine biodegradation. The data shed light on the effects of the chemical structure, chemical bond lability, thermal behavior, and water solubility on biodegradation. Moreover, the analysis of the biodegradation of the building blocks that constituted the different bio-based products allowed us to distinguish between different chemical and physicochemical factors. These hints are of major importance for the rational eco-design of new benign bio-based products. Overall, the high lability of ester bonds was confirmed, along with the negligible effect of the presence of epoxy rings on triglyceride structures. The biodegradation data clearly indicated that the monomers/building blocks undergo a much slower process of abiotic or biotic transformations, potentially leading to accumulation. Therefore, the simple analysis of the erosion, hydrolysis, or visual/chemical disappearance of the chemical products or plastic is not sufficient, but ecotoxicity studies on the effects of such small molecules are of major importance. The use of natural feedstocks, such as vegetable seed oils and their derivatives, allows the minimization of these risks, because microorganisms have evolved enzymes and metabolic pathways for processing such natural molecules.

Influence of Bio-Based Plasticizers on the Properties of NBR Materials.

Project description:A high number of technical elastomer products contain plasticizers for tailoring material properties. Some additives used as plasticizers pose a health risk or have inadequate material properties. Therefore, research is going on in this field to find sustainable alternatives for conventional plasticizers. In this paper, two modified bio-based plasticizers (epoxidized esters of glycerol formal from soybean and canola oil) are of main interest. The study aimed to determine the influence of these sustainable plasticizers on the properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR). For comparison, the influence of conventional plasticizers, e.g., treated distillate aromatic extract (TDAE) and Mesamoll® were additionally investigated. Two types of NBR with different ratios of monomers formed the polymeric basis of the prepared elastomers. The variation of the monomer ratio results in different polarities, and therefore, compatibility between the NBR and plasticizers should be influenced. The mechanical characteristics were investigated. In parallel, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were performed and filler macro-dispersion was determined. Bio-based plasticizers were shown to have better mechanical and thermal properties compared to conventional plasticizers. Further, thermo-oxidative aging was realized for 500 h, and afterwards, mechanical characterizations were done. It was observed that bio-based plasticizers have almost the same aging properties compared to conventional plasticizers.

Designing Green Plasticizers: Linear Alkyl Diol Dibenzoate Plasticizers and a Thermally Reversible Plasticizer.

Project description:Several linear alkyl diol dibenzoate compounds, ranging from C3 to C6 in central diol length, were evaluated for their plasticizing effectiveness in blends with poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). The results were compared to blends of PVC/di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), the most commonly used commercial plasticizer. DEHP has come under scrutiny, due to its suspected endocrine-disrupting behaviour, and the proposed diol dibenzoates have previously been shown to have the potential to be green, safe candidates for DEHP replacement. The thermal and mechanical properties of PVC/dibenzoate blends were determined, and include glass transition temperature (Tg), the elongation at break, maximum stress, apparent moduli, torsional modulus, and surface hardness. The C3, C5, and C6 dibenzoates performed as well as or better than DEHP, with the exception of torsional modulus, further supporting their use as green plasticizers. For blends with 1,4-butanediol dibenzoate, differential scanning calorimetry and torsional temperature sweeps suggested that the compound partly crystallizes within PVC blends over the course of two days, thereby losing the ability to effectively plasticize PVC. However, upon heating to temperatures above 60 °C, effective plasticization was again observed. 1,4-Butanediol dibenzoate is thereby a reversible heat-activated plasticizer or processing aid with excellent plasticizer properties at mildly elevated temperatures.

Investigation of Dual Network Construction for Toughening in Bio-Based Polyamide Composites.

Project description:This study investigated the role of constructing a dual network in toughening bio-based long-chain polyamide 610 (PA610) composites. Rheological studies were conducted to reveal the effects of toughening agent type and content on the material properties. According to the variation trend of mechanical properties and the appearance of a rheological low-frequency plateau of the materials, the percolation network concentration ϕc of the toughening agent in the PA610 matrix was determined to be 13.5 vol.%. The interfacial interaction of the composite was evaluated through the percolation theory, and the scaling value v = 1.36 for both indicated the good affinity between PA610 and the toughening agent. Rheology results found that the combination of ethylene terpolymer (PTW) and maleic anhydride-g-styrene-b-(ethylene-butylene)-b-styrene (MAH-SEBS) could achieve an optimal balance between the mechanical properties and fluidity of the composites. Furthermore, the addition of ultra-high-molecular-weight polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), in conjunction with the toughening agent, facilitated the construction of a dual semi-interpenetrating network. The strengthened intermolecular interactions restricted the relative slippage and mobility of the polymer chains and therefore enhanced the strength and toughness of the material. This study provides new possibilities and approaches for optimizing the comprehensive properties of bio-based polyamide materials.

Plasticization of Polylactide with Myrcene and Limonene as Bio-Based Plasticizers: Conventional vs. Reactive Extrusion.

Project description:Polylactide (PLA) was blended by conventional and reactive extrusion with limonene (LM) or myrcene (My) as bio-based plasticizers. As-processed blends were carefully analyzed by a multiscale and multidisciplinary approach to tentatively determine their chemical structure, microstructure, thermal properties, tensile and impact behaviors, and hydrothermal stability. The main results indicated that LM and My were efficient plasticizers for PLA, since compared to neat PLA, the glass transition temperature was reduced, the ultimate tensile strain was increased, and the impact strength was increased, independently of the type of extrusion. The addition of a free radical initiator during the extrusion of PLA/LM was beneficial for the mechanical properties. Indeed, the probable formation of local branched/crosslinked regions in the PLA matrix enhanced the matrix crystallinity, the tensile yield stress, and the tensile ultimate stress compared to the non-reactive blend PLA/LM, while the other properties were retained. For PLA/My blends, reactive extrusion was detrimental for the mechanical properties since My polymerization was accelerated resulting in a drop of the tensile ultimate strain and impact strength, and an increase of the glass transition temperature. Indeed, large inclusions of polymerized My were formed, decreasing the available content of My for the plasticization and enhancing cavitation from inclusion-matrix debonding.

A review on the synthesis of bio-based surfactants using green chemistry principles.

Project description:ObjectivesWith increasing awareness of the potential adverse impact of conventional surfactants on the environment and human health, there is mounting interest in the development of bio-based surfactants (which are deemed to be safer, more affordable, are in abundance, are biodegradable, biocompatible and possess scalability, mildness and performance in formulation) in personal care products.MethodA comprehensive literature review around alkyl polyglucosides (APGs) and sucrose esters (SEs) as bio-based surfactants, through the lens of the 12 green chemistry principles was conducted. An overview of the use of bio-based surfactants in personal care products was also provided.ResultsBio-based surfactants are derived primarily from natural sources (i.e. both the head and tail molecular group). One of the more common types of bio-based surfactants are those with carbohydrate head groups, where alkyl polyglucosides (APGs) and sucrose esters (SEs) lead this sub-category. As global regulations and user mandate for sustainability and safety increase, evidence to further support these bio-based surfactants as alternatives to their petrochemical counterparts is advantageous. Use of the green chemistry framework is a suitable way to do this. While many of the discussed principles are enforced industrially, others have only yet been applied at a laboratory scale or are not apparent in literature.ConclusionMany of the principles of green chemistry are currently used in the synthesis of APGs and SEs. These and other bio-based surfactants should, therefore, be considered suitable and sustainable alternatives to conventional surfactants. To further encourage the use of these novel surfactants, industry must make an effort to implement and improve the use of the remaining principles at a commercial level.

Bio-based cyclized <i>Eucommia ulmoides</i> gum elastomer for promising damping applications.

Project description:Eucommia ulmoides gum (EUG) is an important bio-based material with a structure similar to that of natural rubber. However, EUG is a hard plastic at room temperature due to crystallization, which limits its wide application. In this paper, a bio-based cyclized Eucommia ulmoides gum (CEUG) elastomer with various degrees of cyclization was prepared using TiCl4/CH3COOH as catalysts. 1H-NMR and FT-IR techniques were used to obtain structure information. It was found that di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted olefins in the cyclized sequence were formed during cyclization. DSC and XRD results indicated that the cyclized structure could inhibit crystallization. When the degree of cyclization reached 8.2%, crystallization disappeared and the material transformed from a plastic into an elastomer. With increasing of the degree of cyclization, the glass transition temperature (T g) of CEUG increased and the thermal stability was enhanced, but the molecular weight decreased significantly. Above all, DMA results showed that the tan δ max could reach 1.2 when the degree of cyclization was 20.0%, and the damping temperature range could be adjusted by controlling the degree of cyclization. This new elastomer is expected to contribute to the development of damping materials.

Fully Bio-Based Elastomer Nanocomposites Comprising Polyfarnesene Reinforced with Plasma-Modified Cellulose Nanocrystals.

Project description:This article proposes a process to prepare fully bio-based elastomer nanocomposites based on polyfarnesene and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). To improve the compatibility of cellulose with the hydrophobic matrix of polyfarnesene, the surface of CNC was modified via plasma-induced polymerization, at different powers of the plasma generator, using a trans-β-farnesene monomer in the plasma reactor. The characteristic features of plasma surface-modified CNC have been corroborated by spectroscopic (XPS) and microscopic (AFM) analyses. Moreover, the cellulose nanocrystals modified at 150 W have been selected to reinforce polyfarnesene-based nanocomposites, synthesized via an in-situ coordination polymerization using a neodymium-based catalytic system. The effect of the different loading content of nanocrystals on the polymerization behavior, as well as on the rheological aspects, was evaluated. The increase in the storage modulus with the incorporation of superficially modified nanocrystals was demonstrated by rheological measurements and these materials exhibited better properties than those containing pristine cellulose nanocrystals. Moreover, we elucidate that the viscoelastic moduli of the elastomer nanocomposites are aligned with power-law model systems with characteristic relaxation time scales similar to commercial nanocomposites, also implying tunable mechanical properties. In this foreground, our findings have important implications in the development of fully bio-based nanocomposites in close competition with the commercial stock, thereby producing alternatives in favor of sustainable materials.

A Hightroughput Approach for Screening Potential Green Plasticizers Using A Human Prostate Cell Line [set2]

Project description:The prostate is one of the main accessory glands of the male reproductive system, responsible of up to 30% of the secretions constituting seminal plasma, and is essential for male fertility. Animal studies have shown that phthalates can trigger cellular events associated with the onset of prostatic diseases. There is increasing interest in developing safe alternative plasticizers to phthalates. Many potential candidates were recently reported, and their mechanisms of action on prostatic cells warrant investigation. The goal of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of four families of chemicals that are candidate plasticizer using a non-cancerous human prostate cell line, PNT1A. These candidate plasticizers were compared to diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), its main bioactive metabolite monohexylethyl phthalate (MEHP), and a current “green” plasticizer that is being used increasingly, 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester (DINCH), using a combination of classical (MTT) and high throughput techniques (HCS, microarray). High content screening provided additional information about cell counts and range of parameters related to cell function. The incorporation of gene expression studies revealed that several of the compounds tested in this study had an effect on cellular functions, even those that had not shown any effect with the other assays. While DINCH was found to have wide ranging effects, we show that candidate plasticizers of the dibenzoate family have no effects on metabolic activity, cellular morphology, cellular proliferation or gene expression in PNT1A cells. Candidate plasticizers of the succinate family had an effect only at the gene expression level.
