Abstract
Poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC) from CO2 and propylene oxide (PO) has wide potential applications as a degradable "plastic". However, the thermal stability and mechanical properties of PPC cannot meet most of the application requirements. Herein, we focus on improving these properties. A (maleic anhydride/cis-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride) (MA/THPA) oligomer containing several cyclocarboxylic anhydride groups, which can copolymerize with PO, has been readily synthesized and used as the third comonomer to prepare PPC with cross-linked networks. The gel contents increase from 16 to 42% with increasing MA/THPA oligomer feed contents from 0.5 to 4 wt % of PO. The formation of cross-linked networks in PPC greatly improves the thermal, mechanical, and dimensional properties. The 5% weight-loss degradation temperature increases from 217 °C to nearly 290 °C before and after cross-linking, which ensures that PPC does not decompose in melt processing. The tensile strength of the copolymer is in the range of 22.2-44.3 MPa with elongation at break of 11-312%. The maximum tensile strength is improved by 143% compared to that of PPC. When the MA/THPA oligomer feed is above 3 wt % of PO, the hot-set elongation of the copolymer at 65 °C decreases more than 10 times when compared with that of PPC, and the permanent deformation is close to 0, while it is 145% for PPC. The dimensional stability is improved sharply. It can overcome the cold flow phenomenon of PPC. The improvement of the above comprehensive properties is of great significance to the practical application of PPC in various fields.

Abstract
In order to decrease the brittle–toughness transition temperature and increase the mechanical strength of poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), a series of multiblock copolymers of poly(propylene carbonate)-multiblock-poly(butylene succinate) (PPC-mb-PBS) are designed and synthesized. 1H-NMR, DOSY and GPC results demonstrate the successful synthesis of PPC-mb-PBSs with designed multiblock sequence. The thermal, crystalline and mechanical properties of these PPC-mb-PBSs are evaluated by DSC, TGA, POM, tensile and tearing testing. Experiment results demonstrate that crystallinity, thermal and mechanical properties of PPC-mb-PBSs can be readily modulated by changing the composition and block length of PPC and PBS moieties. It is found that all the prepared PPC-mb-PBSs are semi-crystalline polymers with a melting temperature at 93–109 °C and a Tg at around −40 °C. Both crystallization rate and crystallinity of the multiblock copolymers increase with increasing both PBS content and PBS block length. As a consequent, the tensile strength increases with increasing PBS/PPC block ratios at room and lower temperatures. In conclusion, the amorphous PBS phase in the block copolymers acts as soft segment, endowing PPC-mb-PBS copolymers with much better flexibility than PPC at low temperature of 273 K when PPC segments are frozen. In present work, biodegradable multiblock copolymers from oligomeric PPC and PBS with low brittle–toughness transition temperature and superior mechanical properties was synthesized, making it more potential candidate as packaging materials.![]()
