Bisphenol-A polycarbonate (PC) is a widely used engineering thermoplastic and its release has caused damage to the ecosystem. Microbial degradation of plastic represents a sustainable approach for PC reduction In this study, a bacterial strain designated Pseudoxanthomonas sp. strain NyZ600 capable of degrading PC was isolated from activated sludge by using di-Ph carbonate as a surrogate substrate. Within a 30-day period of incubating with strain NyZ600, PC films were analyzed with at. force microscopy, scanning electron microscope, water contact angle, XPS, fourier transform IR spectroscopy, differential scan calorimeter and thermogravimetric anal. technique. The analyses results indicated that the treated PC films were bio-deteriorated and formed some “corrosion pits” on the PC film surface. In addition, strain NyZ600 performed broad depolymerization of PC indicated by the reduction of Mn from 23.55 to 16.75 kDa and Mw from 45.67 to 31.97 kDa and two degradation products bisphenol A and 4-cumylphenol (the two monomers of PC) were also found, which established that PC were biodegraded by strain NyZ600. Combing all above results, it is clear that the strain NyZ600 can degrade PC which provides a unique example for bacterial degradation of PC and a feasibility for the removal of PC waste. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as Diphenyl carbonate (cas: 102-09-0Product Details of 102-09-0).
Diphenyl carbonate (cas: 102-09-0) belongs to esters. Esters are also usually derived from carboxylic acids. It may also be obtained by reaction of acid anhydride or acid halides with alcohols or by the reaction of salts of carboxylic acids with alkyl halides. Because of their lack of hydrogen-bond-donating ability, esters do not self-associate. Consequently, esters are more volatile than carboxylic acids of similar molecular weight.Product Details of 102-09-0
