Viscoelastic Properties of Fully Biomass-Based Transparent Plastic Comprising Cellulose Acetate and Citrate Ester. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15093038. [PMID: 35591372 PMCID: PMC9103588 DOI: 10.3390/ma15093038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Viscoelastic properties including melt processability were evaluated for a fully biomass-based glassy plastic comprising cellulose acetate (CA) and triethyl citrate (TEC). The TEC exerted an excellent plasticizing effect without dissolving the CA crystals. Pure CA has poor melt processability. In contrast, the TEC-plasticized CA had good melt-processability at 205 °C, which is lower than the degradation temperature of CA. Extrusion was possible even at 1000 s−1 without any flow instabilities, similar to conventional plastics showing good processability at extrusion. Furthermore, there was marked strain-hardening behavior in the transient elongational viscosity, suggesting that various processing operations are possible, such as a long-chain branched polymer. This biomass-based plastic can be used as a substitute for conventional glassy plastics because it is highly transparent and its softening temperature is above 100 °C.

Synthesis and Characterization of Cellulose Triacetate Obtained from Date Palm ( Phoenix dactylifera L.) Trunk Mesh-Derived Cellulose. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27041434.

Abstract
Cellulosic polysaccharides have increasingly been recognized as a viable substitute for the depleting petro-based feedstock due to numerous modification options for obtaining a plethora of bio-based materials. In this study, cellulose triacetate was synthesized from pure cellulose obtained from the waste lignocellulosic part of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.). To achieve a degree of substitution (DS) of the hydroxyl group of 2.9, a heterogeneous acetylation reaction was carried out with acetic anhydride as an acetyl donor. The obtained cellulose ester was compared with a commercially available derivative and characterized using various analytical methods. This cellulose triacetate contains approximately 43.9% acetyl and has a molecular weight of 205,102 g·mol−1. The maximum thermal decomposition temperature of acetate was found to be 380 °C, similar to that of a reference sample. Thus, the synthesized ester derivate can be suitable for fabricating biodegradable and “all cellulose” biocomposite systems.

Abstract
Oriented polyethylene films, in which stacked lamellae grow perpendicular to the flow direction, can show extraordinary wavelength dispersion of birefringence; i.e., birefringence increases with wavelength. Owing to the periodical change of the refractive indices between the crystalline and amorphous layers along the flow direction, with oriented long lamellae having a high refractive index, the form birefringence has negative values. Furthermore, the refractive indices of the crystalline region show a stronger wavelength dependence than those of the amorphous region, which is responsible for the marked wavelength dispersion in the form birefringence. The combination of negative form birefringence with strong wavelength dispersion and positive orientation birefringence can give extraordinary wavelength dispersion.
