Synthesis and polymerization kinetics of bio-based liquid crystal polyesters based on plant-derived phenolic acid
Liquid crystal polyesters (LCPs) have been employed in various applications, however, their sustainability of the replacement of petroleum-based materials by biomass resources remains a challenge. In particular, using low-cost, readily available bio-based monomers to synthesize LCPs is rarely explored. Herein, vanillic acid and ferulic acid as easily accessible plant-derived phenolic acids are used to prepare bio-based LCPs. Liquid crystal behaviors of the as-prepared LCPs can be observed through a polarized optical microscope, and their polymerization kinetics are studied by thin-film polymerization technique to reveal the relationship between the copolymerization composition and liquid crystal (LC) behaviors. The formation of LC for the as-prepared LCPs can be promoted by the increase of vanillic acid composition but inhibited by the increased ferulic acid composition. The prepared bio-based LCPs show high thermal stability with high glass transition temperatures of over 80 °C and high decomposition temperature of about 300 °C. This work develops two available bio-based monomers for preparing LCPs, showing a good promise in sustainability.
期刊介绍:
Reactive & Functional Polymers provides a forum to disseminate original ideas, concepts and developments in the science and technology of polymers with functional groups, which impart specific chemical reactivity or physical, chemical, structural, biological, and pharmacological functionality. The scope covers organic polymers, acting for instance as reagents, catalysts, templates, ion-exchangers, selective sorbents, chelating or antimicrobial agents, drug carriers, sensors, membranes, and hydrogels. This also includes reactive cross-linkable prepolymers and high-performance thermosetting polymers, natural or degradable polymers, conducting polymers, and porous polymers.
Original research articles must contain thorough molecular and material characterization data on synthesis of the above polymers in combination with their applications. Applications include but are not limited to catalysis, water or effluent treatment, separations and recovery, electronics and information storage, energy conversion, encapsulation, or adhesion.
