Traditionally, these polymers are synthesized using petrochemical-based polyols, which pose environmental concerns. To address this issue, there is a growing trend towards the use of bioresources in polymer manufacturing. This study explores the synthesis of a Schiff base diol derived from ethylene diamine (EDA) and vanillin, which can be obtained by depolymerization of lignin. Additionally, a soybean oil-based polyol (SOP) was employed as a sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-based polyols. The synthesized Schiff base diol and SOP were used to prepare PU films, incorporating both aromatic and aliphatic diisocyanates which are methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), respectively. The primary objective was to investigate the impact of the aromatic and aliphatic nature of the isocyanates on the properties of the resultant PU films. The thermal stability and mechanical properties of the PU films were evaluated and compared. The results demonstrate that the bio-based PU films exhibit good thermal stability. However, contrary to expectations, the mechanical strength decreased with an increasing amount of Schiff base diol, while the elongation percentage increased. A flammability test was also performed to assess flame retardancy, and an unexpected trend was observed in HDI-containing PU films, which is discussed in detail in the manuscript. The study highlights the potential of using bioresources, such as vanillin and soybean oil, to produce sustainable and thermally stable PUs, paving the way for more environmentally friendly applications in the polymeric industry and beyond.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":659,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Polymers and the Environment","volume":"33 1","pages":"415 - 430"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142941103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The adsorption procedure was investigated under different sorption conditions, such as solution pH, adsorbent dosage, initial drug concentration, contact time, and temperature. The experimental data were analyzed using both non-linear and linear forms of kinetic and isotherm models. Based on the sum of squares errors and coefficient of determination values, the non-linear forms of the pseudo-2nd-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model provided the best fit to the experimental data.

The 3D-printed samples were characterized in terms of mechanical properties, thermal behavior, shape memory effects, biocompatibility, and antibacterial activity. Rheological analysis indicated that the viscosity of the AESO-HEMA inks ranged from 0.23 to 0.41 Pa·s, suitable for DLP 3D printing. Characterization analysis confirmed successful copolymerization, with high gel content (87.4-92.5%) and glass transition temperatures (T_g) between 33.2 °C and 51.3 °C, suitable for biological environments. Mechanical testing indicated that the tensile strength of the scaffolds ranged between 16.3 and 21.1 MPa, with elongation at break between 12.2% and 18.8%. The shape memory behavior was excellent, with a recovery ratio (R_r) exceeding 98%. Antibacterial tests demonstrated significant activity for the curcumin-loaded sample against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Moreover, drug release studies showed a sustained release of curcumin over 10 days. In-vitro biodegradation studies revealed a mass loss of approximately 8.5% over 8 weeks.

Its industrial production is based on biotechnological fermentative processes using yeasts. It is used essentially in nutrition and pharmaceutical fields. However, due to its still high price, the use of erythritol is not widespread and is lower than that of other polyols. The use of erythritol for polymer synthesis remains largely unexplored by the scientific community. This work describes the synthesis and characterization of polyester, poly (erythritol sebacate) (PES), obtained by thermal polycondensation of erythritol and sebacic acid in a two steps approach. A prepolymerization step was realized at different temperatures (150 °C, 160 °C and 170 °C, respectively) followed by a cure step at 150 °C. It was found that using a higher temperature allows the same degree of polymerization (50%) to be achieved in a shorter period, but this leads to prepolymers with a more heterogeneous oligomeric composition. This is reflected in the final properties of the polymers after curing. Synthesis at 150 °C produced a polymer with superior mechanical performance (ultimate tensile strength: 0.5 MPa; Young’s modulus: 0.44 MPa: elongation at break: 123%) and higher chemical resistance to solvents than polymers synthesized at 160 °C and 170 °C. The glass transition temperature (T_<i>g</i>) is between − 20 and 0 °C for all polymers and density is 1.08 g/cm³.

However, developing effective modification technologies for BC has presented contemporary challenges regarding sustainability and efficiency, both in academia and industry, with electron beam irradiation (EBI) emerging as a promising, fast, scalable, and sustainable solution. This study focuses on leveraging EBI-induced decomposition on hydrated BC nanofibrous networks to generate an aerogel-like surface morphology post-dehydration, offering a chemical-free modification method. Investigating the effects of EBI across various absorbed doses (0, 10, 50, and 100 kGy) on BC properties aims to lay the groundwork for employing EBI in BC modifications. Successful fabrication of BC with aerogel-like surface morphology at an absorbed dose of 50 kGy resulted in fascinating findings in terms of applications, including decreased tensile strength (7.7 ± 1.3 MPa), increased bending modulus (6062.7 ± 1574.8 MPa), partially reduced thermal stability (primary peak at approximately 320 ± 4 °C and a new secondary peak at approximately 238 ± 5 °C), slightly decreased crystalline index (79.3 ± 1.0%), decreased moisture regain (5.6 ± 0.9%), and notably enhanced thermal insulation (reduced maximum heat flux of 0.057 ± 0.004 W/cm²). Additionally, EBI treatment induced oxidation, slightly increasing oxygen content and causing a yellowing effect on BC while preserving most functional groups and the hydrophilicity of BC. The adoption of EBI provides a premise for future studies and applications in BC functionalization, utilizing advanced and sustainable technology for mass production and sustainable applications of BC-based products.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":659,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Polymers and the Environment","volume":"33 1","pages":"285 - 300"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142941250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
