Description

Block copolymer of aliphatic-aromatic copolyester and polyglycolic acid, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to polymer blending modification, in particular to a polymer containing a segmented copolymer of aliphatic-aromatic copolyester and polyglycolic acid, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Polyglycolic acid (PGA), also known as polyglycolide or polyglycolic acid, has been widely used in the fields of medical sutures, drug controlled release carriers, fracture fixation materials, tissue engineering scaffolds, reinforcing materials, etc., because of its excellent biodegradability, biocompatibility and high mechanical strength. In addition, the material has good water/oxygen barrier performance, is one of materials with the best comprehensive barrier performance, and has the barrier performance to water vapor which is about 100 times higher than that of polylactic acid (PLA) and is similar to that of Polyethylene (PE). However, the high crystallinity of polyglycolic acid results in not only a relatively high melting point, but also poor toughness at room temperature, which greatly limits its use in a wider range of applications.
The aliphatic-aromatic copolyester is used as a copolymer of aliphatic polyester and aromatic polyester, combines the advantages of the two components, and has high toughness and good degradability of the aliphatic polyester, and high strength and excellent thermal performance of the aromatic polyester. The most typical aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters are polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) which is a random copolymer of polybutylene adipate (BA) and polybutylene terephthalate (BT) and polybutylene succinate (PBST) which is a random copolymer of polybutylene succinate (BS) and polybutylene terephthalate (BT). Under the drive of environmental protection policy, PBAT has been widely used in shopping bags, packaging, mulching films, textiles and other fields. Compared with PBAT, the PBST has the same excellent thermal and mechanical properties, and the succinic acid can be obtained from the bio-based raw material through a fermentation method, so that partial bio-based PBAT or PBST is synthesized, and the reduction of carbon emission is facilitated.
Therefore, if polyglycolic acid can be combined with aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters, it is expected to obtain a material having excellent biodegradability, barrier properties and mechanical properties at the same time. However, because the polyglycolic acid and the aliphatic-aromatic copolyester have poor compatibility, the direct blending effect is not ideal, and the mechanical properties cannot be improved.
Chinese patent application CN 111647144A (Shanghai Pu Jing chemical industry, 2020.9.11) discloses a method for adjusting the molecular chain structure of polyglycolic acid, by adding some functional groups (hydrophilic-hydrophobic groups-OH, -COOR, etc.) or chain segments (branching, copolymerization, etc.) with special properties to change the molecular structure, thereby changing the original molecular characteristics of polyglycolic acid. However, it is a low temperature nitrogen-protected reaction, the reaction conditions are severe, the reaction time is long, at least 50 minutes, and long reaction time can lead to thermal decomposition or degradation of PGA to form by-products with color or odor.
Chinese patent application CN 112358708A (Shenzhen Co., ltd., 2021.02.12) discloses a biodegradable blown film modified material with high starch content and a preparation method thereof. In the method, PBAT-g-MAH and PLA-GMA are adopted as compatilizers of PBAT and PGA to improve the mechanical properties of the obtained blend, but the improvement effect still needs to be further improved.
There is a continuing need in the art to address the problem of poor compatibility between polyglycolic acid and aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters. Therefore, how to further increase the compatibility of both aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters and polyglycolic acid blends is a problem that currently needs to be addressed.

Drawings
The strong peaks at 2.5ppm and 3.3ppm in FIG. 1 are absorption peaks of solvent DMSO. The methylene proton absorption peak of PGA was-5.0 ppm, and after block copolymerization, a multimodal appearance was observed, with the main peak shifted from 0.1 to 0.2ppm toward the high field. The absorption peaks at 1.5-2.0ppm and 4.0-4.5ppm are proton absorption peaks for hydrogen on alkanes in PBST, while the absorption peak at 8.0ppm corresponds to hydrogen on benzene rings in PBST. Thus, the product of example 2 still contained the PBST component after purification (product of example 6), indicating that PGA and PBST of example 2 were bonded by chemical bonds, rather than physical blends.
FIG. 2 is an infrared signature curve of pure PGA in example 6, pure PBST and comparative example 3; in FIG. 2, about 1750cm-1 represents the absorption peak of carbonyl group in PGA, and the absorption peak of carbonyl group in PBST is 1715cm -1 About, while both absorption peaks appear in example 6, as evidenced by the results of the nuclear magnetic hydrogen spectrum, the block copolymer, rather than the physical blend, in example 6 is demonstrated.
FIG. 3 is a DSC characterization curve of example 6 and comparative example 2; as can be seen from fig. 3, the melting point and crystallization temperature of example 6 were slightly lower than those of comparative example 2, while the interval between the two glass transition temperatures of example 6 was smaller than that of comparative example 2.
FIGS. 4 and 5 are sectional scanning electron micrographs (magnification: 1.00 kx) of liquid nitrogen low temperature brittle fracture of example 5 and comparative example 1, respectively; as can be seen from comparing fig. 4 and 5, the cross section of example 5 (corresponding to fig. 4) is significantly smoother and more uniform than that of comparative example 1, indicating that the compatibility of PGA phase and PBST in example 5 is better than that of comparative example 1; the uneven cross-section and partial holes in fig. 5 further illustrate that PGA is mechanically blended poorly with aliphatic-aromatic copolyesters (PBXT) itself, and that the addition of compatibilizers is necessary. As can be seen from comparison of fig. 4 and 5, the compatibilizing agent PGA phase and PBXT (PBAT or PBST) phase in the present invention not only can improve the compatibility of two phases per se after being connected by covalent bonds, but also can be added as a compatibilizing agent to the PGA and PBXT blend to improve the compatibility of two phases in the blend, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the blend.

Figure BDA0003315622500000141
As can be seen from Table 4, the mechanical properties of the product obtained in application example 7, which contains the block copolymer of the present invention, are significantly improved compared with those of the product obtained in comparative example 4, which contains no compatibilizer by simple physical blending, and both the tensile strength and the elongation at break are higher than those of the product without the compatibilizer. It was demonstrated that the compatibility of the physically blended PGA/PBAT was significantly improved by the addition of the compatibilizing agent of the present invention (a block copolymer of PGA and PBAT). Meanwhile, the increase in elongation at break illustrates the increased toughness of the PGA/PBAT blend after the addition of the compatibilizing agent of the present invention.
It was confirmed that after the products of examples 1-2 were added as compatibilizers to the physically blended PGA/PBST, respectively, and the products of examples 3-4 were added as compatibilizers to the physically blended PGA/PBAT, respectively, the mechanical properties of the corresponding obtained products also exhibited similar properties to those of the product of application example 7. The PGA/PBST blend or the PGA/PBAT blend has improved mechanical properties, obviously improved compatibility between PGA and PBST or between PGA and PBAT, and enhanced toughness.
