Murakami, Saeko; Aoki, Nobuyoshi published the artcile< Synthesis and ring-oligomer recovery of an environmentally benign malate-containing polyurethane using enzymatic process>, HPLC of Formula: 617-55-0, the main research area is ring oligomer malate polyurethane enzyme catalyzed polymerization lipase.
Oligo[(hexanediol-L-malate)-co-(hexanediol-succinate)] [oligo(HM-co-HS)] was prepared by the lipase-catalyzed polymerization of di-Me L-malate, di-Me succinate and 1,6-hexanediol in an environmentally benign bioprocess. These monomers can be derived from biomass resources. The contents of free hydroxyl groups in the oligomers was varied by changing the feed ratio of L-malate and succinate. Polyurethanes containing malic acid were synthesized by the reaction of enzymically prepared oligo(HM-co-HS) and hexamethylene diisocyanate. The thermal properties of polyurethanes with different contents of L-malate and succinate were evaluated. Melting was observed for polyurethanes containing the oligomers with less than 20% L-malate. The glass transition temperatures of the polyurethanes increased with increasing contents of L-malate having a free hydroxyl group. The malate-containing polyurethanes were enzymically degraded by lipase and the degradation products exclusively contained cyclic oligomers which may be repolymd.
