Summary: Dual-layer membranes of poly(lactic acid) and poly(butylene succinate) filled with cellulose nanowhisker were fabricated for removing metal ions from wastewater. The addition of nanowhisker improved membrane porosity and filtration performance, but could affect heat resistance. In continuous operation tests, the 3% CNW filled membrane showed the highest removal efficiency for cobalt and nickel metal ions.

Summary: Biodegradable polymeric open-porous foams have gained increasing interest in recent decades due to their biodegradability, porosity, and biocompatibility. In this study, biodegradable poly(butylene succinate) (PBS)/chitin nanocrystals (ChNCs) nanocomposite foams with an open porous structure were successfully fabricated using a solid-state batch foaming method. The addition of ChNCs had a positive impact on the crystallization behaviors, melt viscoelasticity, and thermal stability of diverse PBS specimens, significantly influencing the open porous structure of the foams. The strategy presented in this work could serve as a guideline for regulating and controlling open porous foams in other semi-crystalline polymer matrices.

Summary: PBS and PBSA were irradiated with gamma radiation up to a dose of 400 kGy, resulting in the formation of gel content. PBSA exhibited higher gel content compared to PBS. Analysis revealed that chain scission predominated over crosslinking. Branching and chain scission increased the dispersity and affected the molecular weight. NMR analysis showed the appearance of new species and changes in species with increasing dose. The thermal properties, especially crystallization temperature, were significantly affected by irradiation. Mechanical properties of both polymers were greatly reduced, making them fragile even at low doses.

Summary: This study explores the possibility of blending PBS and PCL with BSxCLy copolymers and systematically studies the crystallization behavior of the blends. The results show that the PBS/BS78CL22 blend exhibits good miscibility at high PBS content, while the PCL/BS15CL85 blend still displays partial miscibility at high PCL content. The BS46CL54 copolymer can crystallize in both PBS and PCL type crystals, depending on the polymeric matrix.

Summary: By incorporating AD units into PBS chains, the crystallization temperature and crystallinity of PBS can be depressed, while the primary nucleation capability is significantly strengthened without altering crystal modification or crystallization kinetics. The presence of specific interactions among AD units is crucial for the performance of PBSAD, and further investigation may lead to the design of superior PBS copolymers in the future.

Summary: The development of biodegradable and compostable materials, such as polybutylene succinate (PBS), as alternatives to fossil-based plastics is highly important. PBS is a compostable aliphatic polyester with good mechanical strength and thermal resistance. However, it is often blended with other polymers, fillers, and additives to improve processability and mechanical performance. Recent advances in polymer blending processes have made PBS blends an interesting material platform for applications requiring a balance of mechanical strength, flexibility, thermal resistance, and compostability.

Summary: The degradation behavior of PBAT films by different concentrations of Fusarium solani cutinase (FsC) was investigated. It was found that FsC could degrade both the amorphous region and the crystalline region of PBAT films, and its degradation activity was concentration-dependent. High concentration of FsC resulted in significant degradation of PBAT films, while low concentration had less apparent effect. FsC concentration and degradation time did not significantly affect the molecular weight of degraded PBAT.

Summary: Nylon fishing nets cause damage to marine environments when lost, so a biodegradable poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) resin was developed. By adding adipic acid and ethylene glycol to PBS, poly(butylene adipate-co-butylene succinate-co-ethylene adipate-co-ethylene succinate) (PBEAS) resin with excellent properties and low melting point was synthesized. This resin can be used for gill nets, expanding the application of biodegradable fishing gear.

Summary: This work developed a flexible electroactive material based on poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene adipate) (PBSA) as a matrix and poly(o-phenylenediamine) (PoPD) as a conductive filler. The doped PoPD (dPoPD) particles with polar free = NH substitution were synthesized and doped with perchloric acid. The dPoPD/PBSA blends possess enhanced mechanical and electrical properties compared to the pristine PBSA film. This study presents new biobased/conductive polymer blends and demonstrates that the bending response and the required dielectrophoresis force can be individually tailored to meet the soft robot requirements.

Summary: Modern society faces an urgent need to address the accumulating plastic pollution, which has even infiltrated our food system. However, biodegradable alternatives often lack the necessary mechanical strength and commercial viability. Inspired by fine cuisine, a novel synthetic method called "seasoning" is introduced, which involves adding a small amount of a biobased multifunctional monomer to enhance the properties of poly(butylene succinate). With just 0.03 mol % of the biobased monomer, the seasoned plastic exhibits significantly improved oxygen barrier, high strength (86 MPa), and excellent elongation at break (654%). This innovative approach, which utilizes existing industrial production methods, has the potential to revolutionize the field of bioplastics and expand their applications.

Although the detected DINCH levels were below the universally accepted levels, they could still be toxic. Therefore, the revised standards for regulating PAEs and their alternatives must be reconsidered.

Summary: Bio-super engineering plastic using biomass-derived isosorbide based poly(arylene ether ketone) (IK) is important for sustainable development. Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were used as fillers to enhance the mechanical properties of IK. Adding 0.05 wt% CNF increased elongation and acted as a plasticizer, while 0.1 wt% CNF increased both tensile strength and elongation, improving the tensile toughness by up to two-fold through interaction between the matrix and filler. Overall, the addition of CNFs has the potential to improve the mechanical properties of IK, making it suitable for various sustainable applications.

Summary: In this study, terpolyesters with elastic properties were synthesized using biomass-derived monomers. The unsymmetrical structure of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) contributed to efficient biodegradation and played a crucial role in the development of the hard elastomer domain. The odd-even effect of 1,3-propanediol (PDO) resulted in high biodegradation rates, low melting points, and low degrees of crystallinity. An FDCA : adipic acid (AA) ratio of 7 : 3, at a fixed PDO concentration, achieved an elongation of around 600% and a recovery rate of 89% to the original state.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
