General description

Sebacic acid is a castor oil-derived dicarboxylic acid. It is widely used to produce polymers, plasticizers, lubricants, and corrosion retardants. It can act as a pH corrector in the cosmetic products formulations. Sebacic acid is also used as a precursor to prepare sebacate esters such as diisopropyl sebacate, diethylhexyl sebacate, and dibutyl sebacate.

Application

Sebacic acid has been used in the synthesis of:
  • biodegradable and elastomeric polyesters [poly(glycerol sebacate)]
  • novel bio-nylon, PA5.10
  • novel temperature-response hydrogel based on poly(ether-ester anhydride) nanoparticle for drug-delivery applications

A novel temperature-response hydrogel was developed for drug-delivery applications. The hydrogel matrix (PES) was synthesized by melt polycondensation of poly(ether-ester) diacid based on PEG with low molecular weight and sebacic acid. The sol-gel-sol phase transitions of PES nanoparticle (NP) hydrogel

Polyamides are important industrial polymers. Currently, they are produced exclusively from petrochemical monomers. Herein, we report the production of a novel bio-nylon, PA5.10 through an integration of biological and chemical approaches. First, systems metabolic engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum was used

We synthesized and evaluated biodegradable and elastomeric polyesters (poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS)) using polycondensation between glycerol and sebacic acid to form a cross-linked network structure without using exogenous catalysts. Synthesized materials possess good mechanical properties, elasticity, and surface erosion biodegradation behavior.
