Synthesis of aliphatic polyesters by polycondensation using inorganic acid as catalyst

Abstract: An effective route for the synthesis of aliphatic polyesters made from adipic or sebacic acid and alkanediols, using inorganic acid as a catalyst is reported. The monomer composition, reaction time, catalyst type, and reaction conditions were optimized to yield polyesters with weight average molecular weights of 23,000 for adipic acid and 85,000 for sebacic acid-based polyesters. The polymers melt at temperatures of 52–65°C and possess melt viscosity in the range of 5600–19,400cP. This route represents an alte… Show more

“…Polycondensation of adipic acid or sebacic acid with aliphatic diols using an inorganic acid (H 3 PO 4 or H 2 SO 4 ) as catalyst combined with mild temperatures and low vacuum has also been evaluated [36]. This method was revealed effective to get aliphatic polyesters with appropriate molecular size (e.g., M W close to 85,000 g/mol for sebacic acid derivatives) for possible use in the preparation of degradable disposable medical supplies.…”

“…The basic skeleton of the aliphatic polyesters are similar but pendent groups vary. These pendent groups contribute to the changes in molecular weight, crystallinity and that affects degradation rate [54].…”

“…There is large amount of scientific data on the synthesis of castor oil/ricinoleic acid (RA)‐based copolymer materials. Some of them have potential application in biomedical field, such as drug delivery systems, implants, or tissue engineering materials . For example, copolymers of ricinoleic and lactic acid, with molecular weight of M w = 3000–13 000 gmol −1 , were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization, melt condensation, or transesterification.…”

“…Some of them have potential application in biomedical field, such as drug delivery systems, implants, or tissue engineering materials. [19][20][21][22][23] For example, copolymers of ricinoleic and lactic acid, with molecular weight of M w = 3000-13 000 gmol −1 , were synthesized by ringopening polymerization, melt condensation, or transesterification. In drug release and degradation studies, these copolyesters showed almost zero-order weight loss kinetics and structuredependent release of hydrophobic drug.…”
