Poly(d,l-lactide-co-p-dioxanone) (P(LA-co-PDO)) copolymers with different chain microstructures were synthesized by onestep or two-step bulk ring-opening polymerizations of d,l-lactide (LA) and p-dioxanone (...Poly(d,l-lactide-co-p-dioxanone) (P(LA-co-PDO)) copolymers with different chain microstructures were synthesized by onestep or two-step bulk ring-opening polymerizations of d,l-lactide (LA) and p-dioxanone (PDO) monomers using stannous octoate [Sn(Oct)2]/n-dodecanol as the initiating system. The average sequence lengths of the lactidyl (LLA) and dioxanyl (LpDo) units were calculated from the ^1H NMR spectra. It was found that both LLA and Lpoo values from the two-step syntheses were significantly longer than those from the corresponding one-step syntheses, indicating more blocky structure achieved for the twostep copolymers. Corresponding to this difference in microstructure, the two-step copolymers were semi-crystalline, while the one-step copolymers were completely amorphous. In conclusion, the crystallinity of P(LA-co-PDO) copolymers could be adjusted conveniently to meet specific applications by changing the microstructure of the copolymers via different polymerization routes.展开更多

In this study, p-dioxanone (PDO) was employed to copolymerize with DL-lactide (LA) via ring-opening melt polymerization using Sn(Oct)2 as an initiator and ethylene glycol as a co-initiator. The obtained degradable macrodiols (HO-P(LA-co-PDO)-OH) were just such a copolymer consisting of PLA, GA and EG. 1HNMR was employed to characterize the copolymers, and the effect of PDO/LA molar ratios in the feedstock on the molecular weights of HO-P(LA-co-PDO)-OH was investigated by means of endhydroxyl analysis, 1H NMR or GPC-MALLs. The results confirmed the successful synthesis of HO-P(LA-co-PDO)-OH and revealed that one end-hydroxyl of the micarodiols was donated by LA or PDO and the other one by the co-initiator EG. In addition, the molecular weights of HO-P(LA-co-PDO)-OH increased with decreasing PDO/LA ratios.展开更多

The molecular weight (Mn) of the copolymer with feed ratio of 69:20:11 (BTMC: PDO: PEG ) was 31300 g/mol and the polydispersity was 1.85, while the Mn decreased to 25000 g/mol and polydispersity of 1.93 with the feed ratio of 50:40:10.展开更多

Several radiopaque filaments of PPDO polymer filled with radiopaque TIBA particles were prepared via melt-blending. Material properties of the composite filaments were investigated using various material characterization techniques,including scanning electron microscope( SEM),thermogravimetric analysis( TGA),X-ray Diffraction( XRD),dynamic rheometry and micro-CT scan. In this article,the dispersion of TIBA in PPDO,the properties of the filament,and the ratio of PPDO and TIBA and the corresponding X-ray visibility in vivo were studied. SEM results showed the dispersion of the contrast imaging agent TIBA was relatively even in the PPDO polymer. Xray analysis in vitro confirmed the enhanced radiopacity of the filaments with respect to the pure PPDO filament. The presence of iodine element in the composite filament could allow the bioabsorbable material to be monitored in vivo, and made it potential to be used in biomedical applications.展开更多

A mechanism for the synthesis of P(AM-co-AA) hydrogel was proposed. To optimize the synthesis condition, the following parameters were examined in detail: the discharge voltage, discharge time, the content of the crosslinker, and the mass ratio of AM to AA. The results showed that the optimum pH range for cationic dyes removal was found to be 5.0-10.0. The P(AM-co-AA) hydrogel exhibits a very high adsorption potential and the ex- perimental adsorption capacities for Crystal violet (CV) and Methylene blue (MB) were 2974.3 mg/g and 2303.6 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption process follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. In addition, the adsorption mechanism of P(AM-co-AA) hydrogel for cationic dyes was also discussed.展开更多

Via the thermal addition reactions of vinyl end groups of PPE1 and allyloxy side groups of PPE2, crosslinked polymers C-PPE1 and C-PPE2 were obtained, respectively. The two polymers were characterized by wide-angle X-ray diffraction(WXRD), ultraviolet-visible(UV-Vis) absorption, and photoluminescence(PL). The results indicate that in the solid state, the polymer chains of PPE1 were packed with a low degree of crystallinity because of the sterically hindered(2'-ethyl-hexyl)oxy branched side chains, but, because of the introduction of allyloxy side chains, the polymer chains of PPE2 were packed in an order fashion with a high degree of crystallinity. Because of the high crosslinking density in C-PPE2, the formation of aggregates and excimer was hampered by the formed crosslinking network more effectively in C-PPE2 film than in C-PPE1 film.展开更多

The unit cell is monoclinic (P2_1/a space group) with parameters a =7.89, b = 5.49, c = 12.65 A, α=γ= 90°, β=100.33°, density = 1.48 g/cm^3, the a, b and β values differing slightly from thosereported previously in the literature. A degree of variation in relative intensities of hk0 reflections in, apparently, untilted[001] ED patterns was observed from a given sample, suggesting some variation in molecular packing. ED evidence wasfound for a second phase, with [001] appearing the same as for phase Ⅱ of the related poly(p-oxybenzoate) (PpOBA)polymer. CTFMP crystals polymerized above 220℃ (up to 370℃) and CTFSP crystals polymerized at 300℃ consisted oflamellae 100-200 A thick.展开更多

The result showed that the polymer-supported β-CD could accelerate the hydrolytic reaction of p-NPA morequickly than β-CD itself and crosslinked poly(acrylamide-co-vinylamine) alone. The acceleration rate of the polymer-supported β-CD was about 10 times as fast as that of free β-CD in 0.01 mol/L phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) containing 32%DMSO at 37±0.1℃ when the molar amount of β-CD units in the polymer was equal to that of free β-CD in the experiments.The enhanced acceleration of thc polymer-supported β-CD should be ascribed to the cooperative contribution of theinclusion effect of β-CD ring and the nucleophilic effect of amino groups on the polymeric support.展开更多
