PLA/PHB Blends: Biocompatibilizer Effects [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers, 2019
The purpose of this work was to formulate a fully bio-based blend with superior properties, based on two immiscible polymers: polylactic acid (PLA) and poly-hydroxy butyrate (PHB). To improve the miscibility between the polymeric phases, two different kinds of compatibilizers with a different chemical structure were used, namely, an ethylene oxide ...

Blending Poly (3-Hydroxybutyrate) with Polyethylene Glycol (PEG): Thermal behaviour and rheological study

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2019
Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a biodégradable polymer which its application in industrial was limited due to sensitive to high processing temperature and poor mechanical properties.

A Closer Look on the Polyhydroxybutyrate- (PHB-) Negative Phenotype of Ralstonia eutropha PHB-4

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The undefined poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)- (PHB-) negative mutant R. eutropha PHB-4 was generated in 1970 by 1-nitroso-3-nitro-1-methylguanidine (NMG) treatment. Although being scientific relevant, its genotype remained unknown since its isolation except a recent first investigation.

Poly-β-Hydroxybutyrate (PHB) Production By Amylolytic Micrococcus sp. PG1 Isolated From Soil Polluted Arrowroot Starch Waste

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Biotechnology, 2014
Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production from amylolytic Micrococcus sp. PG1. Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is an organic polymer, which synthesized by many bacteria and serves as internal energy. PHB is potential as future bioplastic but its price is very

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) synthesis by recombinant Escherichia coli harbouring Streptomyces aureofaciens PHB biosynthesis genes: Effect of various carbon and nitrogen sources

open access: yes, 2003
Recombinant Escherichia coli (ATCC:PTA–1579) harbouring poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) synthesising genes from Streptomyces aureofaciens NRRL 2209 accumulates PHB. Effects of different carbon and nitrogen sources on PHB accumulation by recombinant E. coli

Examination of PHB Depolymerases in Ralstonia eutropha: Further Elucidation of the Roles of Enzymes in PHB Homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesAMB Express, 2012
Abstract Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biodegradable polymers that are attractive materials for use in tissue engineering and medical device manufacturing. Ralstonia eutropha is regarded as the model organism for PHA biosynthesis. We examined the effects of PHA depolymerase (PhaZ) expression on PHA homeostasis in R. eutropha strains.

Thermophysical properties and rheology of PHB/lignin blends

open access: yes, 2013
The thermal and rheological properties of poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and lignin blends were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and rheological analysis over the entire range of composition. The drop

Enhancement of stability and reactivity of nanosized zero-valent iron with polyhydroxybutyrate

open access: yes, 2017
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a bacterial storage polyester, which is produced directly in the acti-vated sludge process. In the present study, PHB was tested as a scaffold material for stabilization of nanosized zero-valent iron (nZVI).

Design Strategies and Emerging Applications of High‐Performance Flexible Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks

Blends of ethylene-co-vinyl acetate and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) with adhesion property

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2018
The structure and properties of ethylene-co-vinyl acetate (EVA) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) blends depended on their PHB content, i.e. PHB phase dominated the structure for amounts of PHB higher than 50 wt%, whereas EVA phase is dominant for PHB ...
