Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 271:132610. [PMID: 38788876 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
The flammability of bio-derived poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) greatly limits its application and eco-friendly multifunctional fire-fighting PLA-based composites are highly desired. In this work, a fully bio-based modified CS (C-CS) and commercially available eco-friendly ammonium polyphosphate (APP) were used as a synergistic flame retardant agent (C-CS/APP) to investigate its effects on fire-proofing performance and diverse properties of the PLA. The PLA/5%C-CS/5%APP composite exhibited excellent fire-resistant performance with anti-droplet, smoke-suppression and self-extinguishing property, and its limited oxygen index enhanced by 37 % (compared with neat PLA). This composite reached the highest V-0 fire safety rating, and its peak of heat release rate and total smoke production reduced by 26.5 % and 68.3 %, respectively. In addition, the char residue yield after the cone calorimeter test increased by 46 times in the composite, indicating an outstanding char-forming capacity. The condensed phase flame retardancy played a crucial role on the fire-fighting of this composite, that is, significantly enhanced char residue (as a physical barrier) blocked the heat exchange and O2 entry, and further suppressed the combustion reaction. Additionally, the PLA-based composite showed outstanding UV-absorption property, good anti-bacterial effect, and increased hydrophilicity and crystallizability.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:131985. [PMID: 38692538 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a promising renewable polymer material with excellent biodegradability and good mechanical properties. However, the easy flammability and slow natural degradation limited its further applications, especially in high-security fields. In this work, a fully bio-based intumescent flame-retardant system was designed to reduce the fire hazard of PLA. Firstly, arginine (Arg) and phytic acid (PA) were combined through electrostatic ionic interaction, followed by the introduction of starch as a carbon source, namely APS. The UL-94 grade of PLA/APS composites reached V-0 grade by adding 3 wt% of APS and exhibited excellent anti-dripping performance. With APS addition increasing to 7 wt%, LOI value increased to 26 % and total heat release decreased from 58.4 (neat PLA) to 51.1 MJ/m2. Moreover, the addition of APS increased its crystallinity up to 83.5 % and maintained the mechanical strength of pristine PLA. Noteworthy, APS accelerated the degradation rate of PLA under submerged conditions. Compared with pristine PLA, PLA/APS showed more apparent destructive network morphology and higher mass and Mn loss, suggesting effective degradation promotion. This work provides a full biomass modification strategy to construct renewable plastic with both good flame retardancy and high degradation efficiency.

Abstract
The use of vegetable oil-dervied plasticizers to enhance the flexibility of polylactic acid (PLA) has received much attention due to their renewability, inexpensiveness and biodegradation. However, the double bonds in vegetable oil-based plasticizers limit their compatibility with PLA, resulting in PLA-derived products with reduced flexibility. Herein, we examined soybean oil-derived hydrogenated dimer acid-based polyethylene glycol methyl ether esters (HDA-2n, 2n = 2, 4, 6 or 8, referring to the ethoxy units) developed via the direct esterification of saturated hydrogenated dimer acid and polyethylene glycol monomethyl ethers. The resulting HDA-2n was first used as a plasticizer for PLA, and the effects of the ethoxy units in HDA-2n on the overall performance of the plasticized PLA were systematically investigated. The results showed that, compared with PLA blended with dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP), the PLA plasticized by HDA-8 with the maximum number of ethoxy units (PLA/HDA-8) exhibited better low-temperature resistance (40.1 °C vs. 15.3 °C), thermal stability (246.8 °C vs. 327.6 °C) and gas barrier properties. Additionally, the biodegradation results showed that HDA-8 could be biodegraded by directly burying it in soil. All results suggest that HDA-8 could be used as green alternative to the traditional petroleum-based plasticizer DOTP, which is applied in the PLA industry.

Abstract
Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) is an environmentally-friendly bioplastic with high mechanical strength, but suffers from inherent flammability and poor toughness. Many tougheners have been reported for PLA, but their synthesis usually involves organic solvents, and they tend to dramatically reduce the mechanical strength and cannot settle the flammability matter. Herein, we develop strong, tough, and flame-retardant PLA composites by reactive blending PLA, 6-((double (2-hydroxyethyl) amino) methyl) dibenzo [c, e] [1,2] oxyphosphate acid 6-oxide (DHDP) and diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and define it PLA/xGH, where x indicates that the molar ratio of -NCO group in MDI to -OH group in PLA and DHDP is 1.0x: 1. This fabrication requires no solvents. PLA/2GH with a -NCO/-OH molar ratio of 1.02: 1 maintains high tensile strength of 63.0 MPa and achieves a 23.4 % increase in impact strength compared to PLA due to the incorporation of rigid polyurethane chain segment. The vertical combustion (UL-94) classification and limiting oxygen index (LOI) of PLA/2GH reaches V-0 and 29.8 %, respectively, because DHDP and MDI function in gas and condensed phases. This study displays a generalizable strategy to create flame-retardant bioplastics with great mechanical performances by the in-situ formation of P/N-containing polyurethane segment within PLA.

Abstract
As a bio-based degradable plastic, polylactic acid (PLA) is highly commercialized, but its inherent brittleness limits its widespread use. In-situ polymerization techniques are effective in improving the toughness of PLA. However, the enhancement of the toughening effect in polyurethanes (PUs) through in-situ self-crosslinking still requires improvement and heavily relies on petroleum-derived feedstocks in certain approaches. In this paper, 1,3-polypropanediol (PO3G) of bio-based origin rather than conventional polyols like polyethylene glycol (PEG) and poly propylene glycol (PPG) was used. PLA/PO3G-PU blends were prepared via an in-situ self-crosslinking strategy. With a notch impact and tensile strength of 55.95 kJ/m2 and 47.77 MPa (a retention rate of 68.9 % compared with pure PLA), respectively, PLA/PO3G-PU blends achieved a better balance between stiffness and toughness. This work provides a new option for PLA to achieve a stiffness-toughness balance and get rid of dependence on petrochemical resources.

Abstract
The semi-rigidity of the polylactic acid (PLA) molecular chain makes it brittle, poor impact resistance and barrier properties, which severely limits its practical applications. In this paper, a bio-based reactive plasticizer epoxy soybean oil (ESO) was used to improve the mechanical and barrier properties of maleic anhydride grafted polylactic acid (MAPLA) by the chemical reaction between the epoxy and anhydride group. Firstly, the optimum curing conditions were 93.5 °C, 100 °C, and 110.8 °C for 2 h. The effects of different mass fractions of ESO on the properties of MAPLA-ESO (ME) films were systematically investigated. It was found that when the content of ESO was 10 wt%, the tensile properties of the resulting ME films were the best, with a tensile strength of 35.2 MPa. And it had an elongation at break of 20.0 % and toughness of 5.4 MJ/m3, which increased to 690 % and 675 %, respectively, compared with pure MAPLA films. The chemically crosslinked ME films also displayed excellent water resistance, well degradation, low migration properties, and better performance than that of commercial paper straws and PLA straws, exhibiting great application potential as degradable disposable straws. Therefore, this work provides an effective way to develop high-performance, green, and degradable PLA films and products.

Abstract
Vinyl-functionalized graphene oxide (VGO) was used as a reactive compatibilizer to prepare poly(lactic acid)/polybutylene adipate-co-terephthalate (PLA/PBAT) blends. The linear rheological and scanning electron microscopy results confirmed that the VGO nanosheets were quite efficient in compatibilizing PLA/PBAT blends. The size of the PBAT dispersed phase was remarkably decreased in the presence of VGO nanosheets. Moreover, the VGO nanosheets exhibited strong nucleating effects on the crystallization process of PLA. The crystallinity of PLA component in the compatibilized blend with various VGO nanosheets was higher than 40%, upon the cooling rate of 20 °C/min. The prepared PLA/PBAT pellets were applied to 3D printing, using a self-developed screw-based 3D printer. The results showed that all the prepared PLA/PBAT blend pellets can be 3D printed successfully. The notched Izod impact test results showed that, in the presence of VGO, an increase of at least 142% in impact strength was achieved for PLA/PBAT blend. This could be attributed to the compatibilizing effect of the VGO nanosheets. Thus, this work provides a novel way to prepare tough PLA-based materials for 3D printing.

Abstract
Compared to traditional methods, three/four-dimensional (3D/4D) printing technologies allow rapid prototyping and mass customization, which are ideal for preparing nano/microstructures of soft polymer materials. Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a biopolymer material widely used in additive manufacturing (AM) because of its biocompatibility and biodegradability. Unfortunately, owing to its intrinsically poor nucleation ability, a PLA product is usually in an amorphous state after industrial processing, leading to some undesirable properties such as a barrier property and low thermal resistance. Crystallization mediation offers a most practical way to improve the properties of PLA products. Herein, we summarize and discuss 3D/4D printing technologies in the processing of PLA nano/microstructures, focusing on crystallization principles and practical applications including bio-inspired structures, flexible electronics and biomedical engineering mainly reported in the last five years. Moreover, the challenges and prospects of 3D/4D printing technologies in the fabrication of high-performance PLA materials nano/microstructures will also be discussed.

Abstract
Having even particle size and regular morphology of biochar microspheres (BM) provides the possibility for preparing polylactic acid (PLA) films. Hence, the novelty is proposing a strategy for reinforcing PLA by BM. It was found that BM exhibited regular morphology, higher thermal stability, even particle size, and better pore characteristics. Although adding BM decreased the toughness of PLA due to the poor compatibility between BM and PLA, the nucleation effect of BM facilitated the crystallization in the PLA system. The tensile strength and modulus of BM/PLA composite films increased first and then decreased with increasing BM content. The stress concentration formed by BM particle agglomeration was responsible for the tensile strength and modulus decreases of BM/PLA composite films under higher BM addition. 2% BM added and 3% added composite films exhibited the best tensile strength and modulus with 64.99 MPa and 1.59 GPa, which was mainly attributed to the proper proportion of BM to PLA and the uniform distribution of BM in PLA. The results of this study confirmed the positive reinforcing effect of BM in PLA and are expected to be available in the composite film field.

Abstract
Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA) is a kind of important bio-macromolecule which can be prepared via fermentation of starch of maize and sweet potato. Flammability and extremely poor crystallizability limited its wide application. In this work, a novel Schiff base derivate (CP) was synthesized and, combined with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as a synergistic flame retardant and nucleating agent to investigate its effects on LOI, UL-94 rating, thermal stability, combustion behavior and crystallizability of PLA. With loading of 5%CP/10%APP, PLA showed a significantly enhanced LOI and passed V-0 fire-safety rating with self-extinguish effect. PLA/5%CP/10%APP presented the lowest pHRR, THR and TSR, and highest char residue yield, FPI and FRI in cone calorimetry test, indicating an excellent flame retardancy effect, enhanced fire safety and longer escaping time in the fire. A continuous, compact and thick char layer structure formed as a protective barrier in combustion process, to enhance heat-insulating and oxygen resistance property, thermal stability and smoke-suppressing capacity of PLA. Flame retardancy mechanism was proposed and discussed based on comprehensive and in-depth characterization techniques. Also, 5%CP/10%APP presented a good nucleation effect to enormously increase crystallizability and shorten crystallization time of PLA.

Abstract
Polylactic acid (PLA) has received increased attention in the development of shape-memory polymers and biomedical materials owing to its excellent physical properties and good biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, the inherent brittleness and high shape-recovery temperature of this material limit its application in the human body. Herein, we fabricated a PLA-based thermoplastic polyurethane (PLA-TPU) prepared from modified PLA-diol, dicyclohexylmethane-4,4'-diisocyanate, and 1,4-butanediol to solve the limitations of pure PLA. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the designed TPU can be tailored from 6 to 40.5 °C by adjusting the content of hard segments or molecular weight of soft segments. The shape of the designed TPU can be fixed at room temperature and recovered at temperatures above 37 °C. Moreover, the prepared PLA-TPUs exhibited recyclability, three-dimensional printing capability, non-cytotoxicity, blood compatibility, and biodegradability. The shape of PLA-TPU/nano-Fe3O4 composites can be recovered by exposure to near-infrared light. These results collectively indicate that PLA-TPUs and their composites may have potential applications as intelligent flexible medical scaffolds for surgical and medical implantation equipment.

Development and Characterization of Polylactide Blends with Improved Toughness by Reactive Extrusion with Lactic Acid Oligomers. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14091874.

Abstract
In this work, we report the development and characterization of polylactide (PLA) blends with improved toughness by the addition of 10 wt.% lactic acid oligomers (OLA) and assess the feasibility of reactive extrusion (REX) and injection moulding to obtain high impact resistant injection moulded parts. To improve PLA/OLA interactions, two approaches are carried out. On the one hand, reactive extrusion of PLA/OLA with different dicumyl peroxide (DCP) concentrations is evaluated and, on the other hand, the effect of maleinized linseed oil (MLO) is studied. The effect of DCP and MLO content used in the reactive extrusion process is evaluated in terms of mechanical, thermal, dynamic mechanical, wetting and colour properties, as well as the morphology of the obtained materials. The impact strength of neat PLA (39.3 kJ/m2) was slightly improved up to 42.4 kJ/m2 with 10 wt.% OLA. Nevertheless, reactive extrusion with 0.3 phr DCP (parts by weight of DCP per 100 parts by weight of PLA–OLA base blend 90:10) led to a noticeable higher impact strength of 51.7 kJ/m2, while the reactive extrusion with 6 phr MLO gave an even higher impact strength of 59.5 kJ/m2, thus giving evidence of the feasibility of these two approaches to overcome the intrinsic brittleness of PLA. Therefore, despite MLO being able to provide the highest impact strength, reactive extrusion with DCP led to high transparency, which could be an interesting feature in food packaging, for example. In any case, these two approaches represent environmentally friendly strategies to improve PLA toughness.

A facile strategy for preparation of strong tough poly(lactic acid) foam with a unique microfibrillated bimodal micro/nano cellular structure. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 199:264-274.

Abstract
This work reports the design and fabrication of strong tough poly(lactic acid) (PLA) foam by combining pressure-induced-flow (PIF) processing with supercritical CO2 foaming. PIF processing widened the foaming window of PLA to 40-120 °C, while supercritical CO2 foaming released the undesired internal stress of PLA samples with PIF processing (P-PLA). The prepared PLA foams displayed a unique microfibrillated bimodal micro/nano cellular structure which is strongly affected by saturation temperature (Ts). Both micron and nano cells showed decreasing cells size and increasing cell density as Ts elevated. The orientation factor as well as internal stress of PLA foams decreased with increased Ts. Compared with P-PLA samples, PLA foam prepared at Ts of 40 °C showed negligible reduction of orientation from 0.45 to 0.41 and release of internal stress characterized by the rightward shift of Raman peak (stretching vibration of CO bond from 1763 to 1766 cm-1). Furthermore, PLA foam prepared at Ts of 40 °C presented excellent impact strength (32.3 kJ/m2), tensile strength (42.0 MPa), and ductility (14.2%). The combination of PIF processing and supercritical CO2 foaming provides a facile and effective method to prepare strong tough PLA foam that has immense potential in biomedical, aerospace, automotive, and other structural applications.

Abstract
The trend towards the utilization of bioresources for the manufacturing of polymers has led industry players to bring to the market new monomers. In this work, we studied 3 polyisocyanates and 2 polyols with high renewable carbon contents, namely L-lysine ethyl ester diisocyanate (LDI), pentamethylene-diisocyanate (PDI) isocyanurate trimer, and hexamethylene-diisocyanate (HDI) allophanate as the isocyanates, as well as castor oil and polypropanediol as the polyols. These monomers are commercially available at a large scale and were used in direct formulations or used as prepolymers. Thermosetting polymers with Tg values ranging from -41 to +21 °C and thermal stabilities of up to 300 °C were obtained, and the polymerization was studied using NMR, DSC, and rheology. Cured materials were also characterized using FTIR, DMA, gel content, and swelling index determinations. These high bio-based content materials can successfully be obtained and could be used as alternatives to petro-based materials.

Abstract
A novel poly(epichlorohydrin-co-ethylene oxide)-g-poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymer (ECO-g-PMMA) was successfully synthesized from a commercially renewable elastomer via the ATRP method. The graft copolymer was investigated as a toughening agent and compatibilizer for polylactide (PLA) and PLA/ECO blends, respectively. Binary blending PLA with the copolymers (5-15 wt%) significantly improved the strain at break of PLA above 200% without a great strength loss. More importantly, the ternary PLA/ECO/ECO-g-PMMA copolymer blends exhibited a remarkably high impact strength of 96.9 kJ/m2 with non-broken behaviors. An interesting phase structure transformation from a typical sea-island structure to a unique quasi-continuous network structure was observed with varying the content of ECO-g-PMMA from 0 to 15 wt% in the ternary blends. The native toughening mechanism analysis indicated the synergistic toughening effect of the good interfacial adhesion and unique quasi-continuous morphology endowed the ternary blends with excellent mechanical performance.

Abstract
The compatibilizer with double comb structure has a superior compatibilizing effect for immiscible polymer blends due to the symmetrical structure on both sides of main chains. Extensive study related to the architectural effects of compatibilizer on the compatibilization has mainly focused on the side chains. We investigated the influence of the compatibilizer-main-chain structure on the compatibilizing effect for immiscible poly(vinylidene fluoride)/poly(L-lactic acid) (PVDF/PLLA) blends. Two reactive-comb compatibilizers with polystyrene (PS) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as main chains and PMMA as the side chains have been synthesized. PS is immiscible with both PLLA and PVDF, while PMMA is miscible with PVDF. It was found that both compatibilizers can improve the compatibility between the PLLA and PVDF, with different compatibilization effects. In the PVDF/PLLA (50/50) blends, 1 wt.% poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate)-graft-poly(methyl methacrylate) (RC-SG) tuned the morphology from the droplet-in-matrix structure to the co-continuous structure, while the blends with poly(methyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate)-graft-poly(methyl methacrylate) (RC-MMG) kept the sea-island structure with even 3 wt.% loading. Moreover, RC-SG induces a wider co-continuous interval range than RC-MMG. The co-continuous structure obtained by RC-SG was also more stable than that by RC-MMG. It was further found that RC-SG-compatibilized PVDF/PLLA blends exhibit higher mechanical properties than the RC-MMG-compatibilized blends.
