Catalytic Performances

The synthesis of a bipyridine poly(lactic acid) carboxylic end-capped macroligand coordinated to a platinum center was reported. The reaction between the metal ion and the polymeric ligand was run in a very efficient way through a one-step synthesis and the complex was tested for selective hydrogenation of α,β-carbonyl compounds. High selectivity was proven for double bond hydrogenation of 2-cyclohexen-1-one (up to 99%) and the production of 1-butanol from (E)-but-2-enal. Moreover, the catalytic system was still active after three catalytic cycles.

Abstract In this study, poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) dual-layer membranes filled with cellulose nanowhisker (CNWs), were fabricated by employing an integrated method combining water vapor-induced and crystallization-induced phase inversions. Four membranes (denoted as C-neat, C-I, C-II, and C-III) loaded with CNWs in the range of 0-3 wt% were prepared and characterized using various materials research aspects. The use of CNWs fillers was found to synergize the precipitation of the polymer layers in the integrated water vapor-induced and crystallization-induced method. With morphological examination, the C-III membrane showed prominent and well-laminated two layers structure, evidencing the great precipitating effect of 3 wt% CNWs on the crystallization the polymeric layers. The increase in CNWs loadings was found to improve the membrane porosity with, which was accompanied by a decrease in the pore size. The heat resistance of C-neat membrane was enhanced by CNWs loading of 1 wt% (C-I) whereas it decreased with loadings of 2 and 3 wt% (C-II and C-III) due to flaming behaviour of sulphated nanocellulose. Furthermore, The C-III membrane displayed the best mechanical properties in with respect to tensile strength, elongation at break and Young’s modulus compared to other membrane samples. For wastewater filtration performance, the continuous operation test showed that C-III membrane exhibited the highest removal efficiency for both Co2+ and Ni2+ metal ions reaching 83 and 84%, respectively. Thus, it can be concluded that CNWs filled dual-layer membranes have a strong potential for future development for the removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater streams.

Mediated Oxidation

Poly (lactic acid) or PLA was reinforced by nanocellulose and polyethylene glycol (PEG), which were introduced into PLA matrix from 0 to 3 wt.% to enhance compatibility and strength of the PLA. The nanocellulose was prepared by TEMPO-mediated oxidation from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) powder and characterized by TEM, AFM, and XRD to reveal rod-like shaped nanocellulose with nanosized dimensions, high aspect ratio and high crystallinity. Films of nanocellulose/PEG/PLA nanocomposites were prepared by solvent casting method to evaluate the mechanical performance. It was found that the addition of PEG in nanocellulose-containing PLA films resulted in an increase in tensile modulus with only 1 wt% of PEG, where higher PEG concentrations negatively impacted the tensile strength. Furthermore, the tensile strength and modulus of nanocellulose/PEG/PLA nanocomposites were higher than the PLA/PEG composites due to the existence of nanocellulose chains. Visual traces of crazing were detailed to describe the deformation mechanism.
