Poly(ether ester)s (PEEs) represent a promising class of segmented co-polymers, nevertheless the synthesis of PEEs based on renewable 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is still scarce. In this context, a series of poly(1,4-butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate)--poly(poly(propylene oxide) 2,5-furandicarboxylate) co-polyesters with different composition of stiff poly(1,4-butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PBF) and soft poly(poly(propylene oxide) 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PPOF) moieties were synthesized, via a two-step bulk polytransesterification reaction. The molar ratio of PBF/PPOF incorporated was varied (10 to 50 mol%) in order to prepare several novel materials with tuned properties. The materials were characterised in detail through several techniques, namely ATR FTIR, ¹H and C NMR, TGA, DSC, DMTA and XRD. Their hydrolytic and enzymatic degradation evaluation was also assessed. These new co-polymers showed either a semi-crystalline nature when higher PBF/PPOF ratios were used, and for approximately equal amounts of PBF and PPOF an amorphous co-polyester was obtained instead.
聚(醚酯)(PEEs)是一类很有前景的嵌段共聚物,然而基于可再生的2,5-呋喃二甲酸(FDCA)合成聚(醚酯)的研究仍然很少。在此背景下,通过两步本体酯交换反应合成了一系列具有不同组成的刚性聚(1,4-丁二醇2,5-呋喃二甲酸酯)-聚(聚环氧丙烷2,5-呋喃二甲酸酯)共聚酯,其中刚性聚(1,4-丁二醇2,5-呋喃二甲酸酯)(PBF)和柔性聚(聚环氧丙烷2,5-呋喃二甲酸酯)(PPOF)部分的比例不同。为了制备几种具有可调性能的新型材料,改变了PBF/PPOF的摩尔比(10%至50%摩尔)。通过多种技术对材料进行了详细表征,即衰减全反射傅里叶变换红外光谱(ATR FTIR)、¹H和¹³C核磁共振(NMR)、热重分析(TGA)、差示扫描量热法(DSC)、动态热机械分析(DMTA)和X射线衍射(XRD)。还评估了它们的水解和酶促降解性能。当使用较高的PBF/PPOF比例时,这些新型共聚物表现出半结晶性质,而当PBF和PPOF的量大致相等时,则得到一种无定形共聚酯。
