Researchers and companies have increasingly been drawn to biodegradable polymers and composites because of their environmental resilience, eco-friendliness, and suitability for a range of applications. For various uses, biodegradable fabrics use biodegradable polymers or natural fibers as reinforcement. Many approaches have been taken to achieve better compatibility for tailored and improved material properties. In this article, PBS (polybutylene succinate) was chosen as the main topic due to its excellent properties and intensive interest among industrial and researchers. PBS is an environmentally safe biopolymer that has some special properties, such as good clarity and processability, a shiny look, and flexibility, but it also has some drawbacks, such as brittleness. PBS-based natural fiber composites are completely biodegradable and have strong physical properties. Several research studies on PBS-based composites have been published, including physical, mechanical, and thermal assessments of the properties and its ability to replace petroleum-based materials, but no systematic analysis of up-to-date research evidence is currently available in the literature. The aim of this analysis is to highlight recent developments in PBS research and production, as well as its natural fiber composites. The current research efforts focus on the synthesis, copolymers and biodegradability for its properties, trends, challenges and prospects in the field of PBS and its composites also reviewed in this paper.

“…Attention to aliphatic polyester has greatly increased in recent years with regards to promising sustainable and biodegradable material prospects. Polybutylene succinate (PBS) is one of the biodegradable aliphatic polyesters that has been produced using petroleum-based monomers [13,14,15,16,17,18]. PBS polymer can be obtained from the polycondensation process of 1,4-butanediol and succinic acid [19].…”

Effect of Modified Tapioca Starch on Mechanical, Thermal, and Morphological Properties of PBS Blends for Food Packaging

et al. 2018

In this study, polybutylene succinate (PBS) was blended with five types of modified tapioca starch to investigate the effect of modified tapioca starch in PBS blends for food packaging by identifying its properties. Tensile and flexural properties of blends found deteriorated for insertion of starch. This is due to poor interface, higher void contents and hydrolytic degradation of hydrophilic starch. FTIR results show all starch/PBS blends are found with footprints of starch except OH stretching vibration which is absent in B40 blends. Besides, Broad O–H absorption in all specimens show that these are hydrogen bonded molecules and no free O–H bonding was found. SEM testing shows good interfacial bonding between PBS and starch except E40 blends. Therefore, poor results of E40 blends was expected. In TGA, a slightly weight loss found between 80 to 100 °C due to free water removal. Apart from this, insertion of all types of starch reduces thermal stability of blend. However, high crystallinity of starch/PBS blend observed better thermal stability but lower char yield. Starch A and B blends are suggested to be used as food wrap and food container materials while starch D blend is suitable for grocery plastic bags according to observed results.

“…Recently, PBS has been used in biomedical applications such as controlled drug release and tissue engineering . However, the hydrophobic backbone (with a contact angle of 75.03° ± 0.38°), the lack of reactive sites to interact with other molecules and the slow rate of degradation have restricted PBS application . As a result, PBS‐based copolymers with reactive side groups such as hydroxyl, sulfonate, glutarate, ammonium and tributylphosphonium units have been prepared to improve PBS properties.…”

The positional effect of sulfonate groups on poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) microstructure was investigated. In this regard, unsaturated poly(butylene fumarate) (PBF) and poly(butylene succinate‐ran‐fumarate) copolymers, synthesized via esterification/polycondensation reactions, were modified through post‐polymerization modification. The progress of the PBF sulfonation reaction was analyzed via 1H NMR, dynamic light scattering and field emission SEM. The microstructure and thermal behavior of the functional polyesters were studied through DSC, TGA, elemental analysis and 1H NMR. Based on the results, the sulfonation reaction of unsaturated polymer chains, which are not experiencing a phase separation, is instantaneous, but sulfonation of the chains that have formed colloidal particles is a time‐consuming process. Surprisingly, the outcomes of 1H NMR analysis revealed a kind of heterogeneity along the fully sulfonated PBS backbone, similar to what is usually observed for copolymers. This is due to the ability of sulfonate groups to locate in different sites and create various block types. Due to the attraction between sulfonate groups, they tend to attach to the chain such that they provide the greatest number of second type blocks (containing two sulfonate groups). The randomness of sulfonated polymers after the sulfonation reaction was increased compared to that of the corresponding unsaturated copolymers. Increasing the content of sulfonate groups also led to a significant decrease in the thermal resistance (ca 120 °C) and crystallinity, along with a dramatic increase in ash content and Tg (up to 156 °C). © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry
