Synthesis and Characterization of Bio-Based Polyesters: Poly(2-methyl-1,3-propylene-2,5-furanoate), Poly(isosorbide-2,5-furanoate), Poly(1,4-cyclohexanedimethylene-2,5-furanoate).

ABSTRACT: In the present study, three new biobased furanoate polyesters with potential use in food packaging applications, named poly(isosorbide furanoate) (PIsF), poly(methyl-propylene furanoate) (PMePF) and poly(1,4-cyclohexane-dimethylene 2,5-furanoate) (PCHDMF) were synthesized. As monomers for the preparation of the polyesters, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) and diols with irregular or complicated structure were used, including isosorbide (IS), 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (MPD) and 1,4-cyclohexane-dimethanol (CHDM). The polymerization process was carried out via melt polycondensation method. The structural characteristics and thermal behavior of the polymers were studied. The kinetic fragility of the amorphous phase of the polymers was evaluated. The thermal degradation was studied by means of thermogravimetry and a pyrolysis Py-GC/MS (Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectroscopy) system to estimate the degradation mechanism.

Co-Polymers based on Poly(1,4-butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) and Poly(propylene oxide) with Tuneable Thermal Properties: Synthesis and Characterization.

Project description:Poly(ether ester)s (PEEs) represent a promising class of segmented co-polymers, nevertheless the synthesis of PEEs based on renewable 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is still scarce. In this context, a series of poly(1,4-butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate)-co-poly(poly(propylene oxide) 2,5-furandicarboxylate) co-polyesters with different composition of stiff poly(1,4-butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PBF) and soft poly(poly(propylene oxide) 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PPOF) moieties were synthesized, via a two-step bulk polytransesterification reaction. The molar ratio of PBF/PPOF incorporated was varied (10 to 50 mol%) in order to prepare several novel materials with tuned properties. The materials were characterised in detail through several techniques, namely ATR FTIR, ¹H and 13C NMR, TGA, DSC, DMTA and XRD. Their hydrolytic and enzymatic degradation evaluation was also assessed. These new co-polymers showed either a semi-crystalline nature when higher PBF/PPOF ratios were used, and for approximately equal amounts of PBF and PPOF an amorphous co-polyester was obtained instead.

Synthesis and Characterization of In-Situ-Prepared Nanocomposites Based on Poly(Propylene 2,5-Furan Dicarboxylate) and Aluminosilicate Clays.

Project description:Poly(propylene 2,5-furan dicarboxylate) (PPF), or poly(trimethylene 2,5-furan dicarboxylate) (PTF), is a biobased alipharomatic polyester that is expected to replace its fossil-based terephthalate (PPT) and naphthate (PPN) homologues. PPF possesses exceptional gas barrier properties, but its slow crystallization rate might affect its success in specific applications in the future. Therefore, a series of PPF based nanocomposites with the nanoclays Cloisite®-Na (MMT), Cloisite®-20A (MMT 20A), and halloysite nanotubes (HNT) were synthesized via the in situ transterification and polycondensation method. The effect of the nanoclays on the structure, thermal, and crystallization properties of PPF was studied with several methods including infrared spectroscopy (IR), Nuclear Resonance Spectroscopy (¹H-NMR), Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction (WAXD), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The insertion of the nanofillers in the polymer matrix altered the crystallization rates, and TGA results showed good thermal stability, since no significant mass loss occurred up to 300 °C. Finally, the degradation mechanism was studied in depth with Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectroscopy, and it was found that β-scission is the dominant degradation mechanism.

Solvent-Free One-Shot Synthesis of Thermoplastic Polyurethane Based on Bio-Poly(1,3-propylene succinate) Glycol with Temperature-Sensitive Shape Memory Behavior.

Project description:In this work, a new family of fully biobased thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) with thermo-induced shape memory is developed. First, a series of TPUs were successfully synthesized by the one-shot solvent-free bulk polymerization of bio-poly(1,3-propylene succinate) glycol (PPS) with various molecular weights (M n = 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000), 1,4-butanediol (BDO), and 4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI). These polyurethanes (PUs) are denoted as PPS-x-TPUs (x = 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000), where x represents the M n of PPS in the polymers. To determine the effect of the molecular weight of the soft segment of PU, all PPS-TPUs were formed with the same hard segment content (32.5 wt %). The soft segment with high molecular weight in PPS-4000-TPU caused a high degree of soft segment entanglement and formed many secondary bonds. PPS-4000-TPU exhibited better mechanical (tensile strength: 64.13 MPa and hardness: 90A) and thermomechanical properties (maximum loading: 2.95 MPa and maximum strain: 144%) than PPS-1000-TPU. At an appropriate shape memory programming temperature, all synthesized PPS-x-TPUs exhibited excellent shape memory behaviors with a fixed shape rate of >99% and a shape recovery rate of >86% in the first round and 95% in the following rounds. Therefore, these bio-TPUs with shape memory have potential for use in smart fabrics.

Synthesis and characterization of 3-methyl-6-[(propyn-yloxy)meth-yl]-1,4-dioxane-2,5-dione.

Project description:The number of known asymmetrically substituted hemilactides, important precursors for obtaining regular derivatives of polylactide polymers, is still limited and structural characterization of most of them is incomplete. In the title racemic 1,4-dioxane-2,5-dione derivative, C9H10O5, the hemilactide heterocycle exhibits a twist-boat conformation. The bulkier propynyloxymethyl group is in an axial position with a gauche conformation for the CH2-O-CH2-C segment. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by pairs of C-H?O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. The dimers are linked by further C-H?O contacts, forming a three-dimensional structure.

Transparent Polymer Blends of Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Poly(propylene glycol).

Project description:Polymer blends, obtained by polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of poly(propylene glycol), are investigated. Poly(propylene glycol) acts as a plasticizer, significantly lowering poly(methyl methacrylate)'s glass transition temperature and decreasing its elasticity modulus and yield stress. The mixture of methyl methacrylate with poly(propylene glycol) is more stable than its mixture with currently used poly(ethylene glycol), which leads to more uniform distribution and higher possible content of the plasticizer. Unlike low molecular weight plasticizers, poly(propylene glycol) is less prone to migration and exudation during manufacturing process and in use, and has low toxicity. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, compression testing and X-ray diffraction were used to investigate how the properties of the material depend on the content and molecular weight of the poly(propylene glycol) in the polymer blend. It was shown that the dependence of the glass transition temperature of methyl methacrylate polymerized in the presence of poly(propylene glycol) on the molar fraction of propylene glycol units is linear, and poly(propylene glycol) with lower molecular weight affects properties of the material stronger than poly(propylene glycol) with higher molecular weight. Therefore, the addition of poly(propylene glycol) allows to control the properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) easily and within wide range.

Isotactic and Syndiotactic Alternating Ethylene/Propylene Copolymers Obtained Through Non-Catalytic Hydrogenation of Highly Stereoregular cis-1,4 Poly(1,3-diene)s.

Project description:The homogeneous non-catalytic hydrogenation of cis-1,4 poly(isoprene), isotactic cis-1,4 poly(1,3-pentadiene) and syndiotactic cis-1,4 poly(1,3-pentadiene) with diimide, formed by thermal decomposition of para-toluenesulfonylhydrazide, is examined. Perfectly alternating ethylene/propylene copolymers having different tacticity (i.e., isotactic and syndiotactic), which are difficult to synthesize by stereospecific copolymerization of the corresponding monomers, are obtained. Both isotactic and syndiotactic alternating ethylene/propylene copolymers are amorphous, with very low glass transition temperatures.

Poly[bis-(1,3-dimethyl-1,3-diazinan-2-one)(2,5-dioxidoterephthalato)zirconium(IV)].

Project description:In the title coordination polymer, [Zr(C8H2O6)(C6H12N2O)2] n , the Zr(IV) atom, which lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis, is coordinated by two O,O'-bidentate 2,5-dioxidoterephthalate (DHTP(4-)) ligands and two O-bonded 1,3-dimethyl-1,3-diazinan-2-one (DMPU) ligands (the latter in a cis orientation) in a distorted ZrO6 octa-hedral geometry. The deprotonated hy-droxy and carb-oxy O atoms of the DHTP(4-) ligand chelate the Zr(IV) ion via a six-membered ring; the dihedral angle between the carboxyl-ate group and the aromatic ring is 19.94?(11)°. The DHTP(4-) ligand is completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry and coordinates to two Zr(IV) atoms, thereby forming polymeric zigzag chains propagating in the c-axis direction.

An Eco-Friendly Method to Get a Bio-Based Dicarboxylic Acid Monomer 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid and Its Application in the Synthesis of Poly(hexylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PHF).

Project description:Recently, we have developed an eco-friendly method for the preparation of a renewable dicarboxylic acid 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) from biomass-based 5-hydroxymethylfrufural (HMF). In the present work, we optimized our reported method, which used phosphate buffer and Fe(OH)₃ as the stabilizer to improve the stability of potassium ferrate, then got a purified FDCA (up to 99%) in high yield (91.7 wt %) under mild conditions (25 °C, 15 min, air atmosphere). Subsequently, the obtained FDCA, along with 1,6-hexanediol (HDO), which was also made from HMF, were used as monomers for the synthesis of poly(hexylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PHF) via direct esterification, and triphenyl phosphite was used as the antioxidant to alleviate the discoloration problem during the esterification. The intrinsic viscosity, mechanical properties, molecular structure, thermal properties, and degradability of the PHFs were measured or characterized by Koehler viscometer, universal tensile tester, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier-transform Infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC), Derivative Thermogravimetry (DTG), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and weight loss method. The experimental evidence clearly showed that the furan-aromatic polyesters prepared from biomass-based HMF are viable alternatives to the petrochemical benzene-aromatic polyesters, they can serve as low-melting heat bondable fiber, high gas-barrier packaging material, as well as specialty material for engineering applications.
