• Polyaspartate is a biopolymer synthesised from L-aspartic acid, a natural amino acid. Due in part to the carboxylate groups, polyaspartate has similar properties to polyacrylate.
• One preferred type of polyaspartate is thermal polyaspartate or TPA. This has the benefit of being biodegradable to environmentally benign products, such as carbon dioxide and water, which avoids the need for removal of TPA during sewage treatment, and its disposal to landfill.
• TPA may be made by first heating aspartic acid to temperatures above 180°C to produce polysuccinimide. Then the polysuccinimide is ring opened to form polyaspartate. Because the ring can open in two possible ways, two polymer linkages are observed, an [alpha]-linkage and a [beta]-linkage.
