Rahmayanti W, Nagarajan S, Sun YS, Woo EM. Iridescent Features Correlating with Periodic Assemblies in Custom-Crystallized Arylate Polyesters. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15538. [PMID: 37958521 PMCID: PMC10650520 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242115538] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 10/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, five different aryl polyesters, i.e., poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT), poly(octamethylene terephthalate) (POT), poly(nonamethylene terephthalate) (PNT), and poly(decamethylene terephthalate) (PDT), upon crystallization at a suitable temperature range, all exhibit ring-banded spherulites with universal characteristics. Previous research has revealed some fundamental mechanisms underlying the formation of periodic hierarchical structures. Additionally, this study further explored correlations among micro/nanocrystal assemblies in the top surface and internal grating architectures and the structural iridescent properties. The interior lamellar assembly of arylate polyesters' banded spherulites is shown to exhibit periodic birefringence patterns that are highly reminiscent of those found in a variety of biological structures, with the capacity for iridescence from light interference. A laser diffraction analysis was also used to support confirmation of this condition, which could result in an arc diffraction pattern indicative of the presence of ringed spherulites. Among the five arylate polyesters, only PET is incapable of regularly producing ring-banded morphology, and thus cannot produce any iridescent color.

Abstract
Azelaic acid is a dicarboxylic acid containing nine C atoms, industrially obtained from oleic acid. Besides its important properties and pharmacological applications, as an individual compound, azelaic acid has proved to be a valuable bio-based monomer for the synthesis of biodegradable and sustainable polymers, plasticizers and lubricants. This review discusses the studies and the state of the art in the field of the production of azelaic acid from oleic acid, the chemical and enzymatic synthesis of bio-based oligo and polyester and their properties, including biodegradability and biocompostability.

Effect of organic solvent on enzymatic degradation of cyclic PBS-based polymers by lipase N435. Int J Biol Macromol 2019; 137:215-223.

Abstract
Poly(butylene succinate-co-cyclohexane dimethanol succinate) (P(BS-co-CHDMS)) and poly(butylene succinate-co-butanediol cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid) (P(BS-co-BCHDA)) were catalytically degraded by Candida antarctica lipase Novozyme 435 (N435) in CHCl3 and THF. The results indicated that the degradation rate was P(BS-co-CHDMS) > P(BS-co-BCHDA) > poly(butylene succinate) (PBS). The degradation rate of copolyesters was higher in CHCl3 than in THF, the highest degradation rate of 67% being obtained for P(BS-co-CHDMS). Hence, the CHCl3 solvent is more suitable for the enzyme-catalytic degradation of copolyesters, since the lipase can easier recognize the butylene succinate (BS-), (butanediol cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid) (BCA-), and (cyclohexane dimethanol succinate-type) (CMS-type) ester bonds in this solvent. Moreover, it can recognize the CMS-type ester bonds with a higher specificity than the (butanediol cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid type) (BCA-type) ester bonds. Molecular simulation results indicated that the structure of the lipase was stable in CHCl3 and THF. However, CHCl3 proved to be more suitable for a stable activity of the enzyme. The active pocket contains acyl-binding hydrophilic residues which are recognized by the substrate. The increase in the content of saturated cycles can increase the hydrophobicity of the substrate and thus, the amount of substrate bond to enzyme active site is increased, which facilitates the enzymatic degradation of copolyesters.

Synthesis, properties and applications of biodegradable polymers derived from diols and dicarboxylic acids: from polyesters to poly(ester amide)s. Int J Mol Sci 2014; 15:7064-123.

Abstract
Poly(alkylene dicarboxylate)s constitute a family of biodegradable polymers with increasing interest for both commodity and speciality applications. Most of these polymers can be prepared from biobased diols and dicarboxylic acids such as 1,4-butanediol, succinic acid and carbohydrates. This review provides a current status report concerning synthesis, biodegradation and applications of a series of polymers that cover a wide range of properties, namely, materials from elastomeric to rigid characteristics that are suitable for applications such as hydrogels, soft tissue engineering, drug delivery systems and liquid crystals. Finally, the incorporation of aromatic units and α-amino acids is considered since stiffness of molecular chains and intermolecular interactions can be drastically changed. In fact, poly(ester amide)s derived from naturally occurring amino acids offer great possibilities as biodegradable materials for biomedical applications which are also extensively discussed.
