Research paper thumbnail of Synthesis and characterization of poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(ε-caprolactone) copolyester by transesterification

Journal of Polymer Science Part B: Polymer Physics, 2002

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 13 C 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.

Liquid crystalline properties were identified by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), optical microscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Copolymer with spacer lengths 4, 5, 10, and 11 showed smectic A (S A ) phases with a bâ tonnet texture. The liquid crystalline (LC) phase stabilized as the spacer increased. Copolymers with different compositions were investigated both as monolayers and transferred films. The isotherms suggest nanodomain formation at the gas-water interface in copolymers with high nitrobiphenyl (NBP) content.
