Synthesis of Lignin-based Phenol Terminated Hyperbranched Polymer.

ABSTRACT: In this work, we proved the efficient synthesis of a bio-based hyper-branched polyphenol from a modified lignin degradation fragment. Protocatechuic acid was readily obtained from vanillin, a lignin degradation product, via alkaline conditions, and further polymerised to yield high molecular weight hyperbranched phenol terminated polyesters. Vanillic acid was also subjected to similar polymerisation conditions in order to compare polymerisation kinetics and differences between linear and hyperbranched polymers. Overall, protocatechuic acid was faster to polymerise and more thermostable with a degradation temperature well above linear vanillic acid polyester. Both polymers exhibited important radical scavenging activity (RSA) compared to commercial antioxidant and present tremendous potential for antioxidant applications.

Novel Chemical Cross-Linked Ionogel Based on Acrylate Terminated Hyperbranched Polymer with Superior Ionic Conductivity for High Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:A new family of chemical cross-linked ionogel is successfully synthesized by photopolymerization of hyperbranched aliphatic polyester with acrylate terminal groups in an ionic liquid of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIMBF?). The microstructure, viscoelastic behavior, mechanical property thermal stability, and ionic conductivities of the ionogels are investigated systematically. The ionogels exhibit high mechanical strength (up to 1.6 MPa) and high mechanical stability even at temperatures up to 200 °C. It is found to be thermally stable up to 371.3 °C and electrochemically stable above 4.3 V. The obtained ionogels show superior ionic conductivity over a wide temperature range (from 1.2 × 10-3 S cm-1 at 20 °C up to 5.0 × 10-2 S cm-1 at 120 °C). Moreover, the Li/LiFePO? batteries based on ionogel electrolyte with LiBF? show a higher specific capacity of 153.1 mAhg-1 and retain 98.1% after 100 cycles, exhibiting very stable charge/discharge behavior with good cycle performance. This work provides a new method for fabrication of novel advanced gel polymer electrolytes for applications in lithium-ion batteries.

Synthesis and Solution Properties of a Novel Hyperbranched Polymer Based on Chitosan for Enhanced Oil Recovery.

Project description:A new type of chitosan-modified hyperbranched polymer (named HPDACS) was synthesized through the free-radical polymerization of surface-modified chitosan with acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AM) to achieve an enhanced oil recovery. The optimal polymerization conditions of HPDACS were explored and its structure was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance, and environmental scanning electron microscopy. The solution properties of HPDACS in ultrapure water and simulated brine were deeply studied and then compared with those of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) and a dendritic polymer named HPDA. The experimental results showed that HPDACS has a good thickening ability, temperature resistance, and salt resistance. Its viscosity retention rate exceeded 79.49% after 90 days of aging, thus meeting the performance requirements of polymer flooding. After mechanical shearing, the viscosity retention rates of HPDACS in ultrapure water and simulated brine were higher than those of HPAM and HPDA, indicating its excellent shear resistance and good viscoelasticity. Following a 95% water cut after preliminary water flooding, 0.3 pore volume (PV) and 1500 mg/L HPDACS solution flooding and extended water flooding could further increase the oil recovery by 19.20%, which was higher than that by HPAM at 10.65% and HPDA at 13.72%. This finding indicates that HPDACS has great potential for oil displacement.

Synthesis and properties of hyperbranched polymers for white polymer light-emitting diodes.

Project description:In this work, a series of hyperbranched copolymers with fluorene-alt-carbazole as the branches, three-dimensional-structured spiro[3.3]heptane-2,6-dispirofluorene (SDF) as the core, and iridium 1-(4-bromophenyl)-isoquinoline (acetylacetone) (Ir(Brpiq)2acac) as the dimming group were synthesized by one-pot Suzuki polycondensation for white emission. All copolymers show great thermal stabilities and high hole-transporting ability due to the introduction of the carbazole unit. The hyperbranched structures for copolymers can suppress the interchain interactions efficiently, and help to form amorphous films. The fabricated polymer light-emitting devices (PLEDs) based on the above synthesized copolymers realize good white light emission, and achieve high electroluminescence (EL) performance. For example, for the optimized PLED, the maximum luminance and current efficiency reach 6210 cd m-2 and 6.30 cd A-1, respectively, indicating the synthesized hyperbranched copolymers have potential application in solution-processable white polymer light-emitting diodes.

Synthesis of Interpenetrating Polymer Networks Based on Triisocyanate-Terminated and Modified Poly(urethane-imide) with Superior Mechanical Properties.

Project description:Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) based on triisocyanate-terminated poly(urethane-imide)s (PUIs) were prepared by in situ interpenetrating reactions between modified polyurethane (PU) with different ratios of polyimide (PI). The effects of PU, which was made from hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene modified with triisocyanate, and the amounts of PI on the mechanical properties, thermal properties, and crystalline character of the IPNs were discussed. Triisocyanate-terminated PUI showed that the highest tensile strength was 38 times that of the diisocyanate-terminated materials. Supramolecular cross-linking from an additional hydrogen-bonding network of modified PU and the degree of interpenetration with a regular imide structure of PI were introduced, which accounted for the remarkable improvement in mechanical properties of IPNs. Preferable thermal stability and glass transition temperature for the hard segment of IPNs were rewarded with increasing PI content. X-ray diffraction revealed vigorous segmental mixing between the soft and hard segments of modified PUI. Scanning electron micrographs showed the "fibrous assembly" morphology and short-range-ordered structure of modified PUI.

Lignin-Based Gel Polymer Electrolyte for Cationic Conductivity.

Project description:The article presents the results of the preparation and study of a gel-polymer electrolyte based on lignin obtained from Pinus sylvestris. Sulfonation and subsequent chlorination of lignin make possible implementation of the principle of mono-ionic conductivity in a natural biopolymer matrix, which provides predominantly cationic conductivity of the electrolyte. Based on the results of the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the synthesized samples, the mechanisms of the chemical conversion of the biopolymer, the structure models of the converted fragments of macromolecules, as well as the quantum-chemical calculation of their electronic and geometric parameters are presented. The key electronic characteristics of the gel polymer electrolytes (GPE) based on a composite of lignins with 20 wt.% polyvinyl alcohol are determined by impedance spectroscopy. The maximum value of the specific volume conductivity is 2.48 × 10-4 S cm-1, which is comparable with most commercial electrolytes of this type, but at the same time, record values are reached in the number of lithium cation transfer tLi+ of 0.89. The studies allow to identify the basic laws of the effect of chemical modification on the structure of GPE and describe the mechanism of ionic conductivity.

Synthesis of Terpyridine-Terminated Amphiphilic Block Copolymers and Their Self-Assembly into Metallo-Polymer Nanovesicles.

Project description:Polystyrene-b-polyethylene glycol (PS-b-PEG) amphiphilic block copolymers featuring a terminal tridentate N,N,N-ligand (terpyridine) were synthesized for the first time through an efficient route. In this approach, telechelic chain-end modified polystyrenes were produced via reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization by using terpyridine trithiocarbonate as the chain-transfer agent, after which the hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) block was incorporated into the hydrophobic polystyrene (PS) block in high yields via a thiol-ene process. Following metal-coordination with Mn2+, Fe2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+, the resulting metallo-polymers were self-assembled into spherical, vesicular nanostructures, as characterized by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging.

Synthesis of Multiarm Star Polymer Based on Hyperbranched Polyester Core and Poly(?-caprolactone) Arms and Its Application in UV-Curable Coating.

Project description:Hyperbranched polymers have attracted much attention in the field of UV-curable coatings because of its low viscosity, highly branched structure, and rich functional moieties. However, hyperbranched polymers also have some limitations. For example, the spherical structure increases the crosslinking hindrance, resulting in surplus functional moieties. In this study, a multiarm star polymer with hyperbranched polyester core and linear polymer arms was synthesized and used as UV-curable coating. H40, the fourth generation of the hyperbranched polyester, was chosen as the core owing to its low viscosity and high chemical reactivity. Poly(?-caprolactone) (PCL) arms were introduced to increase the content of flexible segments and reduce the cross-linking hindrance. The terminal hydroxyls were then replaced with methacrylate groups to endow the star polymer with UV curable ability, yielding HPCLn-M. This multiarm star polymer was considered as a promising candidate to make up for the shortcomings of UV-curable coating made from the hyperbranched polymer. The properties, such as hardness, adhesion, acid resistance, and alkali resistance of cured films were enhanced obviously after the grafting of PCL. Moreover, to further explore the effect of the length of PCL grafts on the coating, star polymers with different degree of polymerization (DP) were synthesized. Through the performance tests of cured films, it was found that the multiarm star polymer HPCLn-M could make up for the limitations of the hyperbranched polymer when the DP of PCL was suitable, and the comprehensive performance of cured film reached the best when the DP of PCL was 20. Overall, this multiarm star polymer could combine the advantages of the hyperbranched polymer and linear polymer and has the potential to be the next environmentally friendly UV-curable coating.

Lignin-Based Hydrogels: Synthesis and Applications.

Project description:Polymers obtained from biomass are an interesting alternative to petro-based polymers due to their low cost of production, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. This is the case of lignin, which is the second most abundant biopolymer in plants. As a consequence, the exploitation of lignin for the production of new materials with improved properties is currently considered as one of the main challenging issues, especially for the paper industry. Regarding its chemical structure, lignin is a crosslinked polymer that contains many functional hydrophilic and active groups, such as hydroxyls, carbonyls and methoxyls, which provides a great potential to be employed in the synthesis of biodegradable hydrogels, materials that are recognized for their interesting applicability in biomedicine, soil and water treatment, and agriculture, among others. This work describes the main methods for the preparation of lignin-based hydrogels reported in the last years, based on the chemical and/or physical interaction with polymers widely used in hydrogels formulations. Furthermore, herein are also reviewed the current applications of lignin hydrogels as stimuli-responsive materials, flexible supercapacitors, and wearable electronics for biomedical and water remediation applications.
