Self-assembly and crystallization of double crystalline aliphatic thermoplastic biopolyurethane and its nucleation with cellulose nanocrystals
(Elsevier, 2022-01-13)
[EN] An aliphatic segmented thermoplastic biopolyurethane (STPU), based on aliphatic hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,3 propanediol (1,3PD) as urethane rich phase and a poly(sebacate) as a macrodiol phase, with ~50 ...
Synthesis, morphology, and crystallization kinetics of polyheptalactone (PHL)
(ACS, 2023-06)
Aliphatic polyesters are widely studied due to their excellent properties and low-cost production and also because, in many cases, they are biodegradable and/or recyclable. Therefore, expanding the range of available ...
Tailoring the nucleation and crystallization rate of polyhydroxybutyrate by copolymerization
(ACS, 2023-10)
In the polyester family, the biopolymer with the greatest industrial potential could be poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), which can be produced nowadays biologically or chemically. The scarce commercial use of PHB derives ...
The role of Eudragit® as a component of hydrogel formulations for medical devices
(RSC, 2023)
Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in developing hydrogels as medical devices. By physically cross-linking pharmaceutically approved polymers into three-dimensional matrices, we can ensure their ...
Challenging isodimorphism concepts: Formation of three crystalline phases in Poly(hexamethylene-ran-octamethylene carbonate) copolymers
(ACS, 2023-10)
In this work, poly(hexamethylene-ran-octamethylene carbonate) copolycarbonates were synthesized by melt polycondensation in a wide range of compositions. The copolymers displayed some of the characteristic isodimorphic ...
