“…Later, in 2009, Gandini et al prepared high molecular weight poly(ethylene furanoate) (PEF) by polytransesterification of ethylene glycol with a FDCA-based diester diol. 17 Subsequently, various furanic-aliphatic polyesters have been prepared, 10,11,14,[18][19][20][21] e.g., PEF, poly( propylene furanoate) (PPF), poly(butylene furanoate) (PBF), poly(2,3-butylene furanoate) (P23BF), PHF, 1,4 : 3,6-dianhydrohexitol-based FDCA polyesters, etc. Novel high molecular weight co-polyesters containing FDCA units are also produced.…”

An eco-friendly approach towards furanic-aliphatic polyesters as sustainable alternatives to aromaticaliphatic polyesters is presented. In this approach, biobased dimethyl 2,5-furandicarboxylate (DMFDCA) is polymerized with various ( potentially) renewable aliphatic diols via Candida antarctica Lipase B (CALB)-catalyzed polymerization using a two-stage method in diphenyl ether. A series of furanic-aliphatic polyesters and oligoesters is successfully produced via enzymatic polymerization. Some products reach very high M w (weight average molecular weight) values of around 100 000 g mol −1 . Studies on the effect of the diol structure on the enzymatic polymerization indicate that CALB prefers long-chain alkane-α,ω-aliphatic linear diols containing more than 3 carbons. We also found that the molecular weights of the obtained furanic-aliphatic polyesters increase steadily with the increase of reaction temperature from 80 to 140°C. MALDI-ToF MS analysis reveals that five polyester species may be present in the final products.They were terminated with the ester/-OH, ester/ester, -OH/-OH, no end groups (cyclic), and ester/aldehyde groups, respectively. Furthermore, the structure-property relationships were studied by comparing the crystalline/thermal properties of a series of relevant furanic-aliphatic polyesters.

“…Taking the polyesters for example, by varying the type of diols, different polyesters derived from FDCA, such as poly(octylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (POF) [12], poly (ethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PEF) [15,21], poly(propylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PPF) [22], poly(butylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PBF) [23][24][25][26] and poly(hexamethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PHF) [27], have been synthesized. Among them, PEF might be the most promising one due to its higher glass transition temperature and better mechanical properties.…”

“…This polyester is based on 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a monomer readily synthesized from 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural, which can be obtained from polysaccharides and sugars . Besides PEF, FDCA has already been used in several other polycondensation reactions using different diols to prepare a significant number of aromatic‐like polyesters, such as poly(1,4‐phenylbismethylene‐2,5‐furandicarboxylate), poly(1,4‐phenylene‐2,5‐furandicarboxylate), poly(2,5‐furandimethylene 2,5‐furandicarboxylate), poly(butylene 2,5‐furandicarboxylate), among many others.…”

5-Furandicarboxylic acid is a promising renewable-based monomer essentially used in polymer synthesis to prepare renewable-based counterparts to petrochemical polyesters. In general, they are entirely based on renewable resources and have a myriad of very interesting thermal and mechanical properties; however, this study is the fi rst to tackle their (bio)degradability, a worldwide-demanded property. To address this demand, an entirely new generation of furandicarboxylate-derived copolyesters, based on both poly(ethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PEF) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA), is developed for the fi rst time. These copolyesters are characterized by several techniques, including attenuated total refl ectance-Fourier transform IR (ATR-FTIR), 1 H, and 13 C NMR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), DSC, and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and their degradability behavior is evaluated by water-absorption studies and hydrolytic degradation. They are essentially stiff amorphous polymers possessing high T g s, e.g., ca. 69 °C for 29% of lactyl units. Importantly, the data show also that they have improved degradability when compared with the PEF homopolyester counterpart.
