Description

Application

1,8-Octanediol can undergo:

Polycondensation with citric acid to form biodegradable poly(1,8-octanediol citrate)(POC) crosslinked bioelastomer which can be blended with various additives.
Fischer esterification with dicarboxylic acids to form diol-based macromers.

Production of high molecular weight poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) copolymer by Cupriavidus malaysiensis USMAA1020 utilising substrate with longer carbon chain.

Kai-Hee Huong et al.

International journal of biological macromolecules, 116, 217-223 (2018-05-04)

Long carbon chain alkanediols are used in the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB-co-4HB)], however these substrates possess high toxicity towards bacterial cells. This study demonstrated the effective utilisation of a long carbon chain alkanediol, namely 1,8-octanediol, to enhance the yield and

Synthesis and Characterization of Diol-Based Unsaturated Polyesters: Poly(diol fumarate) and Poly(diol fumarate-co-succinate).

Biomacromolecules, 18(6), 1724-1735 (2017-05-11)

In this work, we describe the synthesis and characterization of variants of poly(diol fumarate) and poly(diol fumarate-co-succinate). Through a Fischer esterification, α,ω-diols and dicarboxylic acids were polymerized to form aliphatic polyester comacromers. Because of the carbon-carbon double bond of fumaric
