Spent Artemisia arborescens as a Biowaste Filler for Melt‐Processed PBSA Biocomposites With Enhanced Disintegration and Aerobic Biodegradation

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Spent Artemisia arborescens biomass, recovered after essential‐oil steam distillation, was ground and melt‐compounded with PBSA (10 and 20 wt%), yielding biocomposites with accelerated biodegradation. ABSTRACT Artemisia arborescens is a Mediterranean shrub widely used for essential oil production, generating significant amounts of spent biomass after ...

Kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
The process of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents was examined by kinetic studies and quantum chemical calculations. Abstract The kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene initiated by sec‐butyllithium were examined in saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents, i.e. cyclohexane, cyclohexene, 4‐vinylcyclohexene and dl‐

Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Towards greener yttrium‐catalyzed ring‐opening polymerization via an all‐terpene reaction concept

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Development of a terpene‐based catalytic system for ring‐opening polymerization of bio‐based lactones that reveals the steric effects of the nucleophile on initiation and alkoxide exchange, while simultaneously enabling post‐polymerization functionalization.
