Surface Modification of PHBV Fibrous Scaffold via Lithium Borohydride Reduction
Materials, 2022 In this study, lithium borohydride (LiBH4) reduction was used to modify the surface chemistry of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) fibers. Although the most common reaction employed in the surface treatment of polyester materials is hydrolysis, it is not suitable for fiber modification of bacterial polyesters, which are highly ...
