Anti-fouling PLA hollow fibers were fabricated using synthesized PLA-PEG-PLA copolymer as an additive to improve the hydrophilicity. The tri-block copolymer was prepared by ring-opening polymerization and a hydrophilic copolymer processing good compatibility with PLA molecule was obtained and utilized to fabricate membrane with PLA by NIPS. Elemental analysis showed that PLA-PEG-PLA could stably exist in membranes and endow the membrane with persistent hydrophilic. Thus the contact angle decreased nearly 20o with 5% PLA-PEG-PLA content, resulting in higher water permeability and BSA rejection which indicated the anti-fouling property of PLA membrane was improved.

AbstractBased on the combination of the “arm-first” and “core-first” strategies, the miktoarm star-shaped copolymer PLLA2PCL2 and the inverse star-block copolymer (PCL-b-PLLA)2-core-(PCL-b-PLLA)2 were designed and synthesized by the combination of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and a click reaction. The miktoarm star-shaped copolymer PLLA2PCL2 was synthesized by a click reaction of an azido macroinitiator PLLA2(N3)2 and HC≡C-PCL. The inverse star-block copolymer (PCL-b-PLLA)2-core-(PCL-b-PLLA)2 was synthesized by a click reaction of an azido macroinitiator (PCL-b-PLLA)2(N3)2 and HC≡C-PCL-b-PLLA. The structures of these star polymers were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatograph (GPC). The inverse star-block copolymer could be used to study the potential relationship between polymer structure and properties, which has a unique structure and good crystallization properties.

Linear and Star-shaped PCL-b-PEG copolymers were synthesized through a two step process, including the first step to synthesize the star-shaped PCL through ring-opening polymerization of Γ-caprolactone initiated from multi-functional alcohol under the existence of tin(II) ethylhexanoate [Sn(Oct)2] catalyst, and the following step to couple the obtained star-shaped PCL with PEG segments using bi-functional linker. The structure of the polymers was confirmed by IR, NMR, GPC, et al. The aggregation behaviors of the star-shape copolymers were compared with that of the linear block copolymer with corresponding molecular weight of each arm, and the influences of structure factors were discussed.

The block copolymer poly (ε-caprolactone)-b-poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PCL-b-PNIPAM) is synthesized via the combination of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT). PCL-b-PNIPAM can self-assemble into the micelles taking PCL as the cores and PNIPAM as the shells. Add α-CD into the micelles, because the inclusion complexation of α-CD to PCL chains and phenols is stronger than that to PCL, to regulate the hydrophilic and hydrophobic features of PCL chain. So PCL-b-PNIPAM block copolymers have potential application in drug delivery and gene transfection.
