Fully biobased triblock copolymers generated using an unconventional oscillatory plug flow reactor

Abstract

Producing block polymers in continuous flow offers significant advantages in terms of versatility, efficiency and scalability.

Synthesis of phase-separated super-H-shaped triblock architectures: poly(l-lactide) grafted from telechelic polyisoprene

“…According to a recent study, hydroxyl-diene structures can be used to initiator lactide also in a flow process, offering promise for upscaling. 38 By varying the end-functionalization reagent, a wide range of other architectures besides super-H structures is accessible.…”

Bifunctional Carbanionic Synthesis of Fully Bio‐Based Triblock Structures Derived from β‐Farnesene and ll‐Dilactide: Thermoplastic Elastomers

“…Pitet et al. recently demonstrated that lactide polymerization onto PFar macroinitiators is also suitable for flow synthesis, highlighting the potential for scale‐up [23] …”

“…Pitet et al recently demonstrated that lactide polymerization onto PFar macroinitiators is also suitable for flow synthesis, highlighting the potential for scale-up. [23] The successful preparation of the active initiator species derived from the reaction of DIB/tert-BuLi was tracked by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. Full conversion of the respective benzylic double bonds was observed within the first monitored time frame (< 1 min) (Figure S1).…”
