Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was examined that the relationship between the structure and thermal properties of the novel alternating copolyesters of 3-hydroxybutyrate and lactate units. Based on the crystalline structure of alternating copolymers with high-heat resistance, it was found that the polymer molecules form the densely chain-packed crystals by reducing the helical radius. In addition, the alternating copolymers of 3-hydroxybutyrate and the other hydroxyacids with chiral center were synthesized, and their structure and thermal properties were determined.
