In this study, biodegradable poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) films with 1.2-4.6 wt% of cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs) were manufactured by solution casting using N,N-dimethylformide (DMF) as the solvent. Crystallization behaviors of PHBV/CNW composites were studied under isothermal conditions using differential scanning calorimetry ...

Properties and Applications of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) Biocomposites
Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2020Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biopolyesters accumulated by microorganisms as intracellular storage materials and they have attracted attention as “green plastic” alternatives to their petrochemical counterparts. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), PHBV, is one of the most studied members of the PHAs family, with numerous applications. PHBV

In this study, a phaCR gene encoding PHA synthase was identified in Rhodoligotrophos defluvii which was adjacent to β-ketothiolase encoded by phaAR gene and acetoacetyl-CoA reductase encoded by phaBR gene. Amino acid comparison of PhaCR showed the highest homology of 65.98% with PhaC of R.

Complex composition distribution of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)
Macromolecules, 1995Four commercially available samples of bacterial poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) [P(3HB-co-3HV)] containing from 6.5 to 21.8 mol % 3HV have been fractionated by chloroform/n-heptane mixed solvent. They have been separated into several fractions with wide composition ranges.

In vitro antibiotic release from poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) rods
Journal of Microencapsulation, 2002Provision and maintenance of adequate concentrations of antibiotics at infection sites is very important in treating highly resistant infections. For diseases like implant related osteomyelitis (IRO) it is best to provide this locally via implanted drug formulations, as systemic administration of the antibiotic may not be effective due to damaged ...

Surface grafting of cellulose nanocrystals with poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2014Chemically modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were synthesized by grafting poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) onto CNCs via homogeneous acylation reaction between N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) by using toluene diisocyanate (TDI) as coupling agent and dibutyltin dilaurate as catalyst. The resulting copolymers were studied by using (1)

Macroporous poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) matrices for bone tissue engineering
Biomaterials, 2003Macroporous poly(3-hydroxybutyric acid-co-3-hydroxyvaleric acid) (PHBV) matrices were prepared after solvent evaporation and solute leaching. PHBV solutions with different concentrations were prepared in chloroform: dichloromethane (1:2, v/v). In order to create a matrix with high porosity and uniform pore sizes, sieved sucrose crystals (75-300 or 300 ...

Biodegradable and biosourced poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) fiber was used as a reinforcing agent, and environment friendly poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) composites were prepared by melt compounding. The mechanical properties, rheological properties, and enzymatic degradation of the PCL composites were investigated in detail. With the

Particular thermal properties of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) oligomers
Journal of Polymer Research, 2011Telechelic hydroxylated poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)s (PHBV-diols) were synthesized by transesterification with ethylene glycol, which could be used as the macromonomers for synthesis of block copolymers. PHBV-diols owned particular thermal properties. PHBV-diols had much lower the melting temperatures (T

Synthesis of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) from activated sludge
Biotechnology Letters, 1997Poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate- co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) was produced using a co-culture of activated sludge. When butyric acid was used as sole carbon source, PHB was produced. When valeric acid was added to the medium, PHBV was produced.
