A solvent-free process to design low density polyhydroxyalkanoate
The polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biobased, biocompatible and biodegradable polyesters. To enhance their biodegradability and flexibility, we develop low density PHAs by an emulsion-templated method without organic solvent. Polycaprolactone (PCL) and castor oil are required to improve the flexibility and to generate the porosity, respectively. To overcome the well-known lack of compatibility between PHA and PCL, pluronic is introduced to improve the miscibility of these polyesters The densities of native PHA and PCL are 1.2 g.cm−3 and the densities decreased to 0.49 g.cm−3 in presence of castor oil (40 wt%). Different PHAs were studied: polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBHV) and polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyhexanoate (PHBHHx). The porous PHBHHx based material showed the best colonization by Pseudomonas, followed by the PHBHV and PHB. This colonization only occurred in the surface and no bacterial diffusion was observed inside the material. The biodegradability study in presence of lipase showed that after 8 days, the weight losses are, respectively, 20% and 75% when the densities decreased from 0.82 g.cm−3 to 0.49 g.cm−3. These results showed the importance of the porosity on the biodegradation of PHAs. Graphical Abstract
期刊介绍:
Polymers from Renewable Resources, launched in 2010, publishes leading peer reviewed research that is focused on the development of renewable polymers and their application in the production of industrial, consumer, and medical products. The progressive decline of fossil resources, together with the ongoing increases in oil prices, has initiated an increase in the search for alternatives based on renewable resources for the production of energy. The prevalence of petroleum and carbon based chemistry for the production of organic chemical goods has generated a variety of initiatives aimed at replacing fossil sources with renewable counterparts. In particular, major efforts are being conducted in polymer science and technology to prepare macromolecular materials based on renewable resources. Also gaining momentum is the utilisation of vegetable biomass either by the separation of its components and their development or after suitable chemical modification. This journal is a valuable addition to academic, research and industrial libraries, research institutions dealing with the use of natural resources and materials science and industrial laboratories concerned with polymer science.
