Abstract:

The presence of hydroxyl-rich water in the bulk ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide (LLA) leads to lower molecular weight of obtained poly(L-lactide) (PLLA). In order to solve this problem, several moisture controlling technologies including purification of LLA monomer, drying of refined LLA and vacuum drying in the reactor before polymerization were investigated for their effects on the molecular weight of PLLA using stannous (Ⅱ) ethylhexanoate (Sn(Oct)2) as the catalyst. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, differential scanning calorimeter and thermogravimetric analysis were used to analyze the chemical structure and thermodynamic properties of PLLA. The results show that increasing purification times of LLA, extending drying time of refined LLA and extending the vacuum drying time in the reactor before polymerization all contribute to the increase of viscosity average molecular weight of PLLA. Compared with low viscosity average molecular weight PLLA, the high viscosity average molecular weight PLLA has a higher melting point of 175 ℃ and better thermal stability.
