Copolymerization Using Lipase Catalyst
نویسنده
چکیده
Enzymatic ring-opening copolymerization of lactones was carried out by using Pseudomonas f luorescens lipase in bulk. In the copolymerizaton of r-caprolactone (E-CL) and b-valerolactone at 60°C for 10 days a copolymer with molecular weight of 3.7 x 103 was obtained and its structure was found to be of random structure having both units from 13C NMR anlaysis. Effects of the feed ratio, the reaction time and temperature on the copolymerization have been examined. The enzymatic copolymerization of e-CL with other lactones and D-lactide also gave corresponding copolymers.

Lipase-catalyzed ring-opening copolymerization of ε-caprolactone and β-lactam.
The enzymatic ring-opening copolymerization of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) and β-lactam by using Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) as catalyst was studied. Variation of the feed ratios of 25:75, 50:50, and 75:25 of ε-CL/β-lactam was performed. The products contain poly(ε-CL-co-β-lactam) and the homopolymers of poly(ε-CL) and poly(β-lactam). The structure of the copolymers was determined by MALDI-To...
متن کاملLipase-catalyzed copolymerization of omega-pentadecalactone with p-dioxanone and characterization of copolymer thermal and crystalline properties.
Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB), a metal-free enzyme, was successfully employed as catalyst for ring-opening copolymerization of omega-pentadecalactone (PDL) with p-dioxanone (DO) under mild reaction conditions (<80 degrees C, atmospheric pressure). Poly(PDL-co-DO) with high molecular weight (Mw > 30 000) and a wide range of comonomer contents was synthesized using various PDL/DO feed ratios...
متن کاملMathematical modeling the effect of catalyst initial shape and the crack pattern in olefin copolymerization
A two-dimensional (2D) single particle model for the copolymerization of propylene-ethylene with heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta catalyst is developed. The model accounts for the effects of the initial shape of the catalyst and carck/ pore patterns on the copolymer composition, polymerization rate and the average molecular weight properties. The spherical and oblate ellipsoidal shapes of catalyst p...
متن کاملEffect of Substituent on Titanocene/MMAO Catalyst for Ethylene/1-Hexene Copolymerization
Copolymerization of ethylene with 1-hexene was carried out using two ansa-fluorenyl titanium derivative complexes. The substituent effect on the catalytic activity, monomer reactivity ratio and polymer property was investigated. It was found that the presence of t-Bu groups on fluorenyl ring exhibited remarkable catalytic activity and produced polymer with high molecular weight. However, these ...

The new highly active supported vanadium-magnesium catalyst (VMC) has been studied in α-olefin (1-butene, 1-hexene)/ ethylene copolymerization in the presence of hydrogen. Data on the effect of α-olefin/ethylene ratio in copolymerization on the content of branchings in copolymers, kinetic profile, copolymer yield, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of copolymers have been obtain...
