Results of investigation of mass losses, geometrical surface structure changes and variations in crystallinity of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(?-caprolactone) (PCL) and commercially available material (PHB) consisting of poly(3,4-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(lactic acid) are presented. These structural changes occurred due to degradation of these polymers in the presence of the following enzymes: proteinase K, protease, esterase or lipase. Independently of the enzyme type, the largest mass loss was found for PLA and the smallest for PHB. Thus, under the experimental conditions, the processes of enzymatic degradation proceeded most rapidly in PLA, more slowly in PCL, and the most slowly in PHB. It was also found that proteinase K caused the largest mass losses, protease caused smaller mass losses, and both esterase and lipase produced the least mass losses, while lipase did not bring about mass loss in PHB. Images of surfaces of individual samples, obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), indirectly confirmed the results of the mass loss examination. Crystallinity of the studied polyesters increased with degradation in the presence of proteinase K and protease, while changes in the crystallinity due to esterase and lipase were not observed. The presented results illustrate well the relative susceptibilities of the individual polyesters toward degradation induced by various enzymes. 相似文献

Summary: The thermal degradation behavior of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) have been studied in different environment. It was found that these polymers undergo completely different degradation processes in nitrogen and oxygen atmosphere. In oxygen environment PCL and PLA mainly decompose to CO2, CO, water and short-chain acids. In nitrogen atmosphere PCL releases 5-hexenioc acid, CO2, CO and ε-caprolactone, whereas PLA decomposes to acetaldehyde, CO2, CO and lactide. The polymer blends of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) with PCL and PLA decompose similar to the individual homopolymers with crotonic acid as the initial decomposition product of PHB. 相似文献

An extracellular polyhydroxybutyrate(PHB) depolymerase was purified to homogeneity from the culture supernatant of a PHB-degrading bacterium, Pseudomonas mendocina DSWY0601, which was isolated from brewery sewage for the ability to form clear zones on the PHB mineral agar plates. The molecular weight of the purified PHB depolymerase as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE) was approximately 59800 at the optimal temperature and pH value being 50 ℃ and 8.5, respectively. PHB depolymerase was stable in a temperature range of 20―50 ℃ and sensitive to pH value within a pH range of 8.0―9.5. PHB depolymerase degraded poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate(P3/4HB) and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3- hydroxyvalerate(PHBV) but did not degrade poly(lactic acid)(PLA), poly(butylene succinate)(PBS) or poly- (caprolactone)(PCL). PHB depolymerase was sensitive to phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride(PMSF), H2O2 and SDS. The main product after enzymatic degradation of PHB was indentified as 3-hydroxbutyrate monomer(3HB) by mass spectrometric analysis, suggesting that PHB depolymerase acted as an exo-type hydrolase. Analysis of phaZpm gene reveals that PHB depolymerase is a typical denatured short-chain-length PHA(dPHASCL, PHA=polyhydroxyalkanoate) depolymerase containing catalytic domain, linker and substrate-binding domain. 相似文献

The growing concern about environmental pollution has generated an increased demand for biobased and biodegradable materials intended particularly for the packaging sector. Thus, this study focuses on the effect of two different cellulosic reinforcements and plasticized poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) on the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). The cellulose fibers containing lignin (CFw) were isolated from wood waste by mechanical treatment, while the ones without lignin (CF) were obtained from pure cellulose by acid hydrolysis. The biocomposites were prepared by means of a melt compounding-masterbatch technique for the better dispersion of additives. The effect of the presence or absence of lignin and of the size of the cellulosic fibers on the properties of PLA and PLA/PHB was emphasized by using in situ X-ray diffraction, polarized optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and mechanical and thermal analyses. An improvement of the mechanical properties of PLA and PLA/PHB was achieved in the presence of CF fibers due to their smaller size, while CFw fibers promoted an increased thermal stability of PLA/PHB, owing to the presence of lignin. The overall thermal and mechanical results show the great potential of using cheap cellulose fibers from wood waste to obtain PLA/PHB-based materials for packaging applications as an alternative to using fossil based materials. In addition, in situ X-ray diffraction analysis over a large temperature range has proven to be a useful technique to better understand changes in the crystal structure of complex biomaterials. 相似文献

Aliphatic polyesters, especially those derived from lactide (PLA), glycolide (PGA) and ε-caprolactone (PCL), are being investigated worldwide for applications in the field of surgery (suture material, devices for internal bone fracture fixation), pharmacology (sustained drug delivery systems), and tissue engineering (scaffold for tissue regeneration) [1,2]. This is mainly due to their good biocompatibility and variable degradability. These polymers present also a growing interest for environmental applications in agriculture (mulch films) and in our everyday life (packaging material)as the development of biodegradable materials is now considered as one of the potential solutions to the problem of plastic waste management.For both biomedical and environmental applications, it is of major importance to understand the degradation characteristics of the polymers. The hydrolytic degradation of aliphatic polyesters has been investigated by many research groups. Our group has shown that degradation of PLAGA large size devices is faster inside than at the surface. This heterogeneous degradation is due to the autocatalytic effect of carboxylic endgroups formed by ester bond cleavage. Moreover,degradation-induced morphological and compositional changes were also elucidated. In the case of PCL, the hydrolytic degradation is very slow due to its hydrophobicity and crystallinity.The enzymatic degradation of these polymers has been investigated by a number of authors. A specific enzyme, proteinase K, has been shown to have significant effects on PLA degradation. This enzyme preferentially degrade L-lactate units as opposed to D-lactate ones, amorphous zones as opposed to crystalline ones [3]. The enzymatic degradation of PCL polymers has also been investigated. A number of lipase-type enzymes were found to significantly accelerate the degradation of PCL despite its high crystallinity. In the case of PLA/PCL blends, the two components exhibited well separated crystalline domains. The selective degradation of PCL or PLA components by enzymes revealed the inner morphology of the blends with formation of microsphere-like or island-like structures [5]. 相似文献

To investigate biodegradability of so-called biodegradable plastics in deep sea, degrading behavior of aliphatic polyesters poly(?-caprolactone) [PCL], poly(β-hydroxybutyrate/valerate) [PHB/V], and poly(butyrene succinate) [PBS] in deep seawaters were evaluated at Rausu, Toyama, and Kume, Japan. After 12 months of soaking in deep seawaters, PCL and PHB/V fibers became brittle or completely ruined. Although breaking strength of PBS fibers maintained approximately 95% of the initial values, for all 3 fibers, many pinholes and cracks were observed on the surfaces. These results imply that examined 3 aliphatic polyesters are degradable also at deep sea though the degradation rates would vary with the material structures. From the deep seawaters assessed, 5 PCL-degrading bacteria were isolated, which were found to belong to the genuses Pseudomonas, Alcanivorax, and Tenacibaculum, as assessed by phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. It was also confirmed that all these bacteria degrade PCL fibers in vitro. In addition, these strains were found to prefer conditions of low temperature (4-10 °C) and high hydrostatic pressure. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to prepare the mechanically stable hydrophobic biocomposites by incorporating the cellulose fibers into the polymer matrices for their applications in biomedical and food packaging. Herein, two different types of biocomposites were prepared by mixing polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) with the agro-extracted cellulose, separately at 170 °C. The influence of the cellulose fibers on the thermal, mechanical, and barrier properties of polymer matrices (PLA and PHB) was observed. With an increase in the cellulose content in PLA and PHB, the tensile strength of the biocomposite materials significantly improved with the enhancement of 24.45% and 32.08%, respectively, compared with the pure PLA and PHB. Furthermore, a decrease of 74.16% and 73.49% in the water vapor transmission rate and oxygen transmission rate, respectively, was observed for cellulose/PHB biocomposites. This study highlights that adding cellulose fibers significantly improves the mechanical and the barrier properties of PLA and PHB, suggesting their biocomposites for use in biodegradable polymer industries. 相似文献

The public and governmental awareness regarding more sustainable products have gained significant momentum in the last decade and are directing the future research of the next generation of materials and processes. In such a setting, biodegradable polymers are regarded as one of the technologies driving the innovation and current market growth because they provide an additional end of life option. Tracing the evolving trends of these emerging technologies will help researchers, investors, and policy makers to better evaluate the opportunities of the technology as well as to understand the technology's changing characteristics. Therefore, within this study, we perform bibliographic analyses based on patent information to delineate the current research landscape and to anticipate the future development trends by focusing on the cases of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(hydroxyalkanoates) (PHAs), polycaprolactone (PCL), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT). The following findings were made: First, PLA gets the highest attention from both academia and industry. Second, the overall international presence of biodegradable polymer patents is high, especially in the field of PHAs. Third, technology maturity and technology strength show that PLA is the most promising technology at present in technological terms, whereas PHAs, PCL, and PBS are uncertain technologies and PBAT has a rather low development potential. 相似文献

Two series of segmented poly(ester‐urethane)s were synthesized from bacterial poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]‐diol (PHB‐diol), as hard segments, and either poly(ε‐caprolactone)‐diol (PCL‐diol) or poly(butylene adipate)‐diol (PBA‐diol), as soft segments, using 1,6‐hexamethylene diisocyanate as a chain extender. The hard‐segment content varied from 0 to 50 wt.‐%. These materials were characterized using 1H NMR spectroscopy and GPC. The polymers obtained were investigated calorimetrically and dielectrically. DSC showed that the Tg of either the PCL or PBA soft segments are shifted to higher temperatures with increasing PHB hard‐segment content, revealing that either the PCL or PBA are mixed with small amounts of PHB in the amorphous domains. The results also showed that the crystallization of soft or hard segments was physically constrained by the microstructure of the other crystalline phase, which results in a decrease in the degree of crystallinity of either the soft or hard segments upon increase of the other component. The dielectric spectra of poly(ester‐urethane)s, based on PCL and PHB, showed two primary relaxation processes, designated as αS and αH, which correspond to glass–rubber transitions of PCL soft and PHB hard segments, respectively. Whereas in the case of other poly(ester‐urethane)s, derived from PBA and PHB, only one relaxation process was observed, which broadens and shifts to higher temperature with increasing PHB hard‐segment content. It was concluded from these results that our investigated materials exhibit micro‐phase separation of the hard and soft segments in the amorphous domains. 相似文献

Blends of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(caprolactone) (PCL) were evaluated using multiscale instrumental analyses to reveal the effects of blend ratio and crosslinking reagent. In the multiscale instrumental analyses, molecular mobility from molecular to nano scales was examined by solid-state NMR, while the morphology at the micron scale was revealed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). PHB-rich blends adopted a sea-island morphology and showed a larger maximum stress due to dispersed PHB filler. A PCL-rich blend also adopted a sea-island morphology but the sea domain consisted of PCL and showed a larger strain at break. An equal ratio PHB/PCL blend had a bicontinuous morphology which showed lower maximum stress and lower strain at break because of large hemispherical defects. The crosslinking reagent changes these heterogeneous morphologies of PHB/PCL blends to homogeneous at the micron scale, which improved tensile properties. Even though the molecular mobility changed with the polymer content and the crosslinking reagent, the bicontinuous and homogeneous morphologies more significantly affected the tensile properties of the PHB/PCL blends. 相似文献

In this work the nucleation and growth of spherulites for the below polylactide (PLA) layer in poly(ε-caprolactone)/polylactide (PCL/PLA) double-layer films during isothermal crystallization at various temperatures above the melting point of PCL have been investigated by using polarized optical microscopy (POM). It is revealed that two types of spherulitic morphologies are observed in PCL/PLA double-layer films. One is the well defined highly birefringent spherulites, and the other one is the coarse spherulites. It is interesting to find that the spherulitic growth rate of the coarse spherulites is higher than that of the well defined spherulites. It is thought that the coarse spherulites nucleate and grow with the assistance of the interfaces between the PCL and PLA layers, and the well defined highly birefringent spherulites only nucleate and grow in the PLA layer. 相似文献

The use of natural materials has grown in the last years in the plastics industry. Natural lignocellulose fibers derived from agricultural waste present potential to be used as a replacement for glass fibers for polymer reinforcement, leading to lower CO2 footprint products. This work focuses on the modification of the cellulose fibers in order to improve the compatibility with poly(lactic acid) (PLA). The scoured wheat straw fibers were grafted with polycaprolactone (PCL) through ring opening polymerization. Thermal stability of the wheat straw fibers improved after chemical modifications enabling higher processing temperatures. Flexural and tensile moduli were improved by 23% and 15%, respectively, compared with neat PLA, using 20 wt% modified fibers. An improvement of 20% in the impact strength was obtained using PCL grafted fibers because of entanglements and molecular interactions between PCL grafted on the wheat straw fibers and PLA molecules.

Variable-temperature FT-IR spectra of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and a PHB/PCL (50:50 wt.%) blend were analyzed by two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS). For this purpose the ν(CO) region was employed to characterize in some detail the crystallization behavior of the investigated polymer systems during cooling from the melt. The asynchronous 2D correlation spectra clearly captured the existence of three components in the crystallinity-sensitive region of the CO stretching mode for PHB and PCL, respectively: a well-ordered, an inter-mediate and a less ordered crystalline state. Furthermore, by 2DCOS application a sequential order of the observed structural changes could be proposed for the whole temperature range during the crystallization of both polymers. In the case of the PHB/PCL (50:50 wt.%) polymer blend, we have split up the spectral data set in the sub-sets between 200–120 °C and 70–30 °C for a more detailed 2DCOS analysis. In this way we could separate the crystallization process of PHB and PCL in the polymer blend. 相似文献

To synthesize the copolyester of poly(β‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL), the transesterification of PHB and PCL was carried out in the liquid phase with stannous octoate as the catalyzer. The effects of reaction conditions on the transesterification, including catalyzer concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time, were investigated. The results showed that both rising reaction temperature and increasing reaction time were advantageous to the transesterification. The sequence distribution, thermal behavior, and thermal stability of the copolyesters were investigated by 13C NMR, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, optical microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The transesterification of PHB and PCL was confirmed to produce the block copolymers. With an increasing PCL content in the copolyesters, the thermal behavior of the copolyesters changed evidently. However, the introduction of PCL segments into PHB chains did not affect its crystalline structure. Moreover, thermal stability of the copolyesters was little improved in air as compared with that of pure PHB. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 1893–1903, 2002 相似文献

The biodegradable poly(butylene succinate)/poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PBS/PCL) microcapsules containing indomethacin were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method. The morphologies, thermal properties, and release behaviors of PBS/PCL microcapsules were investigated. As a result, the microcapsules exhibited porous and spherical form in the presence of gelatin as a surfactant. From the DSC result, the PBS/PCL microcapsules showed the two exothermic peaks meaning the melting points of PCL and PBS. The results of FT-IR and DSC proved that the PBS and PCL were mixed so that the PBS/PCL microcapsules were composed of two wall-forming materials. And the release rate of indomethacin from the microcapsules was decreased with increasing the PCL content. It was noted that an addition of PCL on the PBS led to the decrease of pore size in the PBS/PCL microcapsules. 相似文献

Amorphous poly(lactide) (PLA) and nanocomposite films were prepared from melt‐blending with precipitated calcium carbonate nanofillers (PCC). Nanocomposites based on uncoated PCC (PCC‐UT), stearic acid coated PCC (PCC‐S), and poly(ε‐caprolactone) coated PCC (PCC‐P) were investigated for an inorganic content fixed to 8 wt %. Using coated nanofillers allowed preserving both PLA average molar mass and thermal stability while enhancing the nanofiller dispersion state. Poly(ε‐caprolactone) was identified as the best coating for optimized morphology and thermal properties. Maxwell law accurately described the increase in oxygen barrier properties observed for the nanocomposites based on PCC‐S. A modified Maxwell law was proposed to take account of the additional increase in barrier properties evidenced for the PLA/PCC‐P nanocomposites and assigned to the particularly strong compatibility between PCL and PLA. Different annealing conditions were investigated to respectively study the impact of physical ageing and PLA crystallization on gas permeability. Different extents of physical ageing did not significantly modify the oxygen transport properties. However, a high permeability decrease was observed for the semicrystalline nanocomposites with respect to the amorphous reference PLA film. Finally, the gain in barrier properties was shown to result from both contribution of the nanofillers and the crystalline phase. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym.

Poly(D ,L -lactide)–poly(ϵ-caprolactone)–poly(ethylene glycol)–poly(ϵ-caprolactone)–poly(D ,L -lactide) block copolymer (PLA–PCL–PEG–PCL–PLA) was prepared by copolymerization of ϵ-caprolactone (ϵ-CL) and D ,L -lactide (D ,L -LA) initiated by potassium poly(ethylene glycol)ate in THF at 25°C. The copolymers with different composition were synthesized by adjusting the mole ratio of reaction mixture. The resulted copolymers were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, DSC, and GPC. Efforts to prepare copolymers with the corresponding structure of PCL–PLA–PEG–PLA–PCL and D ,L -lactide/ϵ-caprolactone random copolymers were not successful. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献
