Aromatic Polyesters from Cyclic Diacetalized Glucose
Japu, Cristina (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2010-06)
Master thesis
Restricted access - author's decisionThe development of polymers based on monomers from renewable feedstock, and more specifically from carbohydrates, is a steadily growing field of interest because of the properties that can generate these unique structures. ... -
Bio-based poly(ethylene terephthalate) copolyesters made from cyclic monomers derived from tartaric acid
Japu, Cristina; Martínez de Ilarduya Sáez de Asteasu, Domingo Antxon; Alla Bedahnane, Abdelilah; Muñoz Guerra, Sebastián (Elsevier, 2014-05-13)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyTwo cyclic acetal compounds, 2,3-O-methylene L-threitol and dimethyl 2,3-O-methylene L-threarate, both coming from naturally-occurring tartaric acid, were used as comonomers to replace ethylene glycol and dimethyl terephthalate ... -
Bio-based poly(hexamethylene terephthalate) copolyesters containing cyclic acetalized tartrate units
Japu, Cristina; Martínez de Ilarduya Sáez de Asteasu, Domingo Antxon; Alla Bedahnane, Abdelilah; Muñoz Guerra, Sebastián (Elsevier, 2013-03-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA cyclic acetal of dimethyl l-tartrate (dimethyl 2,3-di-O-methylene l-threarate, Thx) was used as comonomer of dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) in the polycondensation with 1,6-hexanediol (HD) in the melt. Random copolyesters ... -
Biodegradable copolyesters of poly(hexamethylene terephthalate) containing bicyclic 2,4:3,5-di-O-methylene-D-glucarate units
Japu, Cristina; Martínez de Ilarduya Sáez de Asteasu, Domingo Antxon; Alla Bedahnane, Abdelilah; García Martín, Maria de Gracia; Galbis Pérez, Juan Antonio; Muñoz Guerra, Sebastián (2014-11-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA set of copolyesters (PHTxGluxy) with compositions ranging between 90/10 and 50/50 in addition to the parent homopolyesters poly(hexamethylene terephthalate) (PHT) and PHGlux, are prepared by the melt polycondensation of ... -
Copolyesters made from 1,4-butanediol, sebacic acid, and D-glucose by melt and enzymatic polycondensation
Japu, Cristina; Martínez de Ilarduya Sáez de Asteasu, Domingo Antxon; Alla Bedahnane, Abdelilah; Jiang, Yi; Loos, Katja; Muñoz Guerra, Sebastián (2015-03-09)
Article
Open AccessBiotechnologically accessible 1,4-butanediol and vegetal oil-based diethyl sebacate were copolymerized with bicyclic acetalized d-glucose derivatives (Glux) by polycondensation both in the melt at high temperature and in ... -
Cyclic derivatives of D-glucose and tartaric acid as building blocks for renewable polyesters
Japu, Cristina (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-11-21)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessThree series of aromatic copolyesters derived from poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) and poly(hexamethylene terephthalate) (PHT) have been synthesized by melt polycondensation in which ... -
Renewable terephthalate polyesters from carbohydrate-based bicyclic monomers
Muñoz Guerra, Sebastián; Lavilla Aguilar, Cristina; Japu, Cristina; Martínez de Ilarduya Sáez de Asteasu, Domingo Antxon (2014-04-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPoly(alkylene terephthalate)s, PET and PBT in particular, are materials of great relevance and growing projection in the thermoplastic field but are today almost totally produced from fossil resources. The current huge ...
