Preparation of nano-web of Poly(butylene succinate) ionomers (PBSi)

초록

In last two decades, aliphatic biodegradable polyesters have been studied extensively due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility and physical or chemical properties in order to replace non-biodegradable polymers that cause environmental problems. On the other hand, it has been manifested that the electrospinning is an attractive method to fabricate micron to nano sized structures for various polymers which have high specific surface areas. To overcome some drawbacks and to extend their practical usages, we prepared the nano-web of poly(butylene succinate) ionomers (PBSi) by two-step polymerization including esterification and subsequent polycondensation reaction, which were firstly fabricated by electrospinning. The electrospun PBSi nano-web would have some potential in multifarious application fields such as filters, catalyses, protecting clothes, implants and tissur engineering, etc.
