  • the FTIR spectra of native XG, dialdehyde XG, and modified XG samples are shown in Figure 2.
  • XG was rapidly oxidized at room temperature to form dialdehyde XG, which was evidenced by a strong aldehyde absorption peak at 1720 cm 1 .
  • the viscosity of the solution increased significantly during the course of the reaction and stirring was hindered by the gelatinous nature of the solution after 30 min. of reaction.
  • the resulting aldehyde groups were reduced to alcohols by the use of NaBH 4 .
  • the reduction of the aldehyde groups was complete with no characteristic carbonyl absorption peak at 1720 cm 1 in the modified XG samples.
  • the pyranose ring was opened by periodate oxidation and two distinct CH groups were formed in modified XG samples as compared to native XG.
  • the CH stretching frequency at around 2898 cm 1 for native XG was well resolved into two peaks at 2873 and 2930 cm 1 for both dialdehyde XG and modified XGs.
  • the FTIR spectra also tentatively reveals that -OH stretching band at 3300 cm 1 was shifted to higher frequency range for dialdehyde XG, which indicates the fact that part of the carbonyl groups form hemiacetal linkages with -OH groups resulting in a cross-linked structure of the polymer.
  • Table 1 Carbohydrate composition of XG and modified XG samples. Data are reported as mmols of carbohydrates / 100 mg of sample. Designations dXG30, dXG60 and dXG120, refer to time in minutes for periodate treatment.
  • the side galactose and xylose groups are thus favored for oxidation compared to the glucopyranose rings in the main chain.
  • the vicinal -OH groups of the ⁇ -(1 ⁇ 4)- linked D-glucopyranoses main chain is in trans state, which is kinetically less favourable for periodate oxidation than the predominant cis conformations observed in side sugars.
  • the periodate reaction oxidizes regioselectively the side galactose and xylose groups of XG. Longer oxidation time will result in a structure with stiff cellulose chain segment and soft linkages from opened glucose units, similar to segmented block copolymers based on hard and soft segments.
  • xyloglucan oligosaccharides obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of XG and modified XG samples are presented in Figure 3.
  • the mass peaks at m/Z values of 1409.2, 1247.2 and 1085.2 corresponds to the XGO structures XLLG, XXLG or XLXG and XXXG respectively having molecular weights in the order 1386.5, 1224,4 and 1062.4 Da respectively (see Figure SI in SI). All XGOs were oxidized during periodate treatment with none of the original XGOs present in the final product in all oxidation conditions.
  • the m/Z value of 1063.3 and 1093.3 for XXXG of dXG60 and dXG120 samples points to the fact that oxidation also occurred at one of the four glucose units, which resulted in a increase of the m/Z value by 2 units.
  • no oxidation at glucose groups was detected for the dXG30 sample and the resulting m/Z value was recorded at 1061.2 and 1091.3. This verifies the carbohydrate analysis discussed earlier, where the amount of glucose present remained constant for dXG30 sample, whereas a slight decrease was observed for dXG60 and dXG120 samples (Table 1).
  • the oxidation opens the side groups and this result in a different spatial packing of chains compared with native XG. Also, the intermolecular interactions are influenced as well as molecular mobility. The trend in decreased yield strength with increased oxidation time is strong. Yielding in ductile amorphous polymers tend to be by shear yielding (Kinloch & Young, 1983). Removal of the pendant sugar rings appears to greatly facilitate this process.
  • the molecular weights of all modified XG substrates were fairly high due to the short oxidation time used. In contrast, periodate oxidation of cellulose requires longer time and is always accompanied by severe depolymerization so that the final product has inferior properties compared to commercial polymers(Painter, 1988).
  • the native XG has a Tg of the order of 275 °C.
  • the modification reduces the glass transition temperature of native XG to 167 °C for dXG30, where all galactose and a significant part of the xylose have disappeared in the carbohydrate analysis (Table 1).
  • the Tg is reduced to around 145 °C for dXG60 and dXG120 samples ( Figure 6), where all xylose has disappeared in carbohydrate analysis (Table 1).
  • These reductions in Tg are very significant from a thermal processing point of view.
  • the decrease in Tg is a consequence of the opening of pendant sugar rings. It results in perturbations in the spatial packing of modified XG chains, changes in intermolecular interactions and increased molecular mobility.
  • the thermal stability of modified XGs was studied with TGA and the result together with the derivative thermogram is presented in Figure 7.
  • the native XG has very high thermal stability compared to other hemicelluloses(Bergstrom, Salmen, Kochumalayil & Berglund, 2011; Yang, Yan, Chen, Lee & Zheng, 2007), whereas the modified XG samples have even higher thermal stability than XG.
  • the thermal degradation of modified XG has shown two stages, the first being the pyrolysis of labile opened side groups with a maximum at about 305 °C whereas the cellulose backbone is degraded in the second stage with a maximum at 320-325 °C. The onset of degradation corresponding to labile side chains occurs at a lower temperature than for native XG.
  • modified XGs were showing thermal stability similar to cellulosic materials where the pyrolysis occurs in 315-400 °C with maximum weight loss at about 350 °C (Alen, Kuoppala & Oesch, 1996; Yang, Yan, Chen, Lee & Zheng, 2007).
  • Oxygen barrier properties This is a very significant property for packaging applications.
  • the permeabilities of modified XGs in comparison with XG are given in Table 3.
  • Oxygen permeability of modified XG is somewhat higher than for native XG in the dry state, whereas it is significantly lower than for commercial barriers in use today, such as PVOH.
  • the oxygen permeability of a material depends on solubility of oxygen in the material and diffusion of the oxygen molecules in the material. This in turn depends on the polarity and free volume of the material (Comyn, 1985; Miller & Krochta, 1997).
  • the chain packing in XG was significantly altered as a result of the opening of side groups. This is reflected in increased oxygen permeability of modified XGs compared to XG.
  • the oxygen barrier property of modified XGs was markedly improved at 50 %RH.
  • modified XGs have reduced moisture uptake compared with XG.
  • Moisture adsorption is detrimental to the oxygen barrier performance of many hydrophilic polymers at high RH since intermolecular interactions between polymer molecules are reduced due to the presence of moisture.
  • the highly advantageous oxygen permeability of XG is improved at 50 %RH for modified XG samples making this novel biopolymer an interesting candidate for packaging applications.
  • the largely preserved cellulose backbone is important as is the reduced moisture adsorption compared with XG.

Abstract

Des polymères d'origine biologique tels que l'amidon et les hémicelluloses du bois présentent un intérêt pour des applications d'emballage, mais souffrent de limitations des performances dans des conditions humides. Le xyloglucane provenant de déchets industriels de graine de tamarin possède un potentiel, mais son Tg est trop élevé pour des applications de traitement thermique. Une modification régiosélective est par conséquent réalisée en utilisant une approche impliquant une oxydation au periodate suivie d'une réduction. Les structures polymères résultantes sont caractérisées par MALDI-TOF-MS, chromatographie d'exclusion, et analyse FTIR et des glucides. Les films sont coulés à partir d'eau et caractérisés par thermogravimétrie, analyse mécanique dynamique, sorption dynamique de vapeur d'eau, transmission d'oxygène et essais de traction. Les modifications de propriété sont interprétées à partir de modifications structurales. Ces nouveaux polymères présentent des performances nettement supérieures aux polymères à base de pétrole actuels dans l'utilisation industrielle. En outre, cette modification régiosélective peut être soigneusement contrôlée, et conduit à un nouveau type de dérivés de cellulose avec un squelette de cellulose conservé sans nécessiter de solvants nocifs.
