Application of Lipase to Synthesis of Biodegradable Polyesters |
|
|
Abstract Enzyme catalyzed synthesis of polyesters is an eco-friendly and effective technique. By contrast with traditional chemical polymerization, lipase catalyzed reaction has the advantage of high efficiency, high selectivity, mildness. The review highlighted lipase catalyzed polycondensation reactions of simple diacids with diols and activated esters with diols, ring-opening polymerization of lactones leading to the formation of polyesters. The mechanisms of step-growth polymerization and ring-opening were briefly described. Finally, developmental perspective for biodegradable polyesters synthesised by lipase catalyzed was presented.
