Popis: | Renewable vinyl compounds itaconic acid (IA) and its derivative 10-hydroxyhexylitaconic acid (10-HHIA) are naturally produced by fungi from biomass. This provides the opportunity to develop new biobased polyvinyls from IA and 10-HHIA monomers. In this study, we copolymerized these monomers at different ratios through free radical aqueous polymerization with potassium peroxodisulfate as an initiator, resulting in poly(IA-co-10-HHIA)s with different monomer compositions. We characterized the thermal properties of the polymers by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The nuclear magnetic resonance analysis and the gel permeation chromatography showed that the polymerization conversion, yield, and the molecular weights (weight-averaged Mw and number-averaged Mn) of the synthesized poly(IA-co-10-HHIA)s decreased with increasing 10-HHIA content. It is suggested that the hydroxyhexyl group of 10-HHIA inhibited the polymerization. The TGA results indicated that the poly(IA-co-10-HHIA)s continuously decomposed as temperature increased. The FT-IR analysis suggested that the formation of the hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups of IA and 10-HHIA in the polymer chains was promoted by heating and consequently the polymer dehydration occurred. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that biobased polyvinyls were synthesized using naturally occurring IA derivatives. |
