Abstract:
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biopolyesters composed of hydroxy fatty acids, which represent a complex class of storage polyesters. They are synthesized by a wide range of different Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as by some Archaea, and are deposited as insoluble cytoplasmic inclusions. Polyester synthases are the key enzymes of polyester biosynthesis and catalyse the conversion of (R)-hydroxyacyl-CoA thioesters to polyesters with the concomitant release of CoA. These soluble enzymes turn into amphipathic enzymes upon covalent catalysis of polyester-chain formation. A self-assembly process is initiated resulting in the formation of insoluble cytoplasmic inclusions with a phospholipid monolayer and covalently attached polyester synthases at the surface. Surface-attached polyester synthases show a marked increase in enzyme activity. These polyester synthases have only recently been biochemically characterized. An overview of these recent findings is provided. At present, 59 polyester synthase structural genes from 45 different bacteria have been cloned and the nucleotide sequences have been obtained. The multiple alignment of the primary structures of these polyester synthases show an overall identity of 8–96% with only eight strictly conserved amino acid residues. Polyester synthases can been assigned to four classes based on their substrate specificity and subunit composition. The current knowledge on the organization of the polyester synthase genes, and other genes encoding proteins related to PHA metabolism, is compiled. In addition, the primary structures of the 59 PHA synthases are aligned and analysed with respect to highly conserved amino acids, and biochemical features of polyester synthases are described. The proposed catalytic mechanism based on similarities to α/β-hydrolases and mutational analysis is discussed. Different threading algorithms suggest that polyester synthases belong to the α/β-hydrolase superfamily, with a conserved cysteine residue as catalytic nucleophile. This review provides a survey of the known biochemical features of these unique enzymes and their proposed catalytic mechanism.

Abstract:
In this work, we present the effect of incorporation of polyester on the electrical properties of injection-molded polycarbonate/multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposites. The study was conducted by melt-mixing polycarbonate, multi-walled carbon nanotube, and three types of polyesters: polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, and liquid crystal polymer. It was found that the volume resistivities of injection-molded composites containing 2 phr polyester significantly decreased because of the transesterification reaction between the polycarbonate and polyester. The resulting polycarbonate-polyester random block copolymer kept the conductive networks intact because of the preferential affinity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes with polyester. This study showed that incorporating polyester with polycarbonate–multi-walled carbon nanotube increases the electrical conductivity of injection-molded polycarbonate/multi-walled carbon nanotube nanocomposites to a great extent.

Full text
Abstract:
Aliphatic polyesters such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) copolymers have been widely used as biomaterials for tissue engineering applications including: bone fixation devices, bone scaffolds, and wound dressings in orthopedics. However, biodegradable aliphatic polyesters are prone to bacterial infections due to the lack of antibacterial moieties in their macromolecular chains. In this respect, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), graphene oxide (GO) sheets and AgNPs-GO hybrids can be used as reinforcing nanofillers for aliphatic polyesters in forming antimicrobial nanocomposites. However, polymeric matrix materials immobilize nanofillers to a large extent so that they cannot penetrate bacterial membrane into cytoplasm as in the case of colloidal nanoparticles or nanosheets. Accordingly, loaded GO sheets of aliphatic polyester nanocomposites have lost their antibacterial functions such as nanoknife cutting, blanket wrapping and membrane phospholipid extraction. In contrast, AgNPs fillers of polyester nanocomposites can release silver ions for destroying bacterial cells. Thus, AgNPs fillers are more effective than loaded GO sheets of polyester nanocomposiites in inhibiting bacterial infections. Aliphatic polyester nanocomposites with AgNPs and AgNPs-GO fillers are effective to kill multi-drug resistant bacteria that cause medical device-related infections.

Abstract:
Polyester is a versatile commercially significant polymer (thermoplastic/thermoset) well-known for its biodegradability and excellent thermal, mechanical, and chemical properties. Synthetic aromatic polyester resins usually have better moisture resistance, nonflammability, liquid crystal, strength, thermal, and environmental features compared with natural/aliphatic polyesters. Nanofillers can reinforce these important polymers to further enhance the final nanocomposite structural and physical characteristics. This review presents research devoted to polyester nanocomposites with essential nanofillers such as; nanodiamond, fullerene, carbon nanotube, graphene, and graphene oxide. High-performance polyester/nanocomposites have been developed based on modified polyester design, nanofiller functionality, and optimized interaction between matrix and nanofiller. This article also presents state-of-the-art technological development in the field of polyester/nanocomposites predominantly in supercapacitors, fuel cells, shape memory materials, electromagnetic shielding materials, textiles, and biomedical appliances. Furthermore, future scenarios in scientific development of these nanocomposites are discussed.

Abstract:
Plants and animals have been exploited as sources of materials for centuries but, as our ability to analyze and fractionate them has progressed, the extraordinary range of properties available from materials produced by living systems has continued to grow. Doi, in another article in this issue of the MRS Bulletin, presents a discussion of a group of naturally occurring polyesters related to poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate). These polyesters are formed in vivo by several microorganisms as part of an energy storage scheme. Research on these systems has allowed growth conditions to be found that can lead, in a controlled fashion, to a number of copolymers. Useful materials based on these bacterial polyesters appear to be at hand.The in-vivo formation of polyesters in microorganisms also illustrates several of the important reasons for examining biocatalytic polymer synthesis. First, unlike most industrial syntheses of polyesters, the poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) biosynthesis occurs at a near-ambient temperature using a carbohydrate feedstock. Second, and perhaps most importantly, the stored polyesters are readily biodegraded by the bacteria that manufacture them, so materials based on these polyesters should also be biodegradable. Third, although there are side chains along the polymer backbone, they are introduced in a highly stereo-specific fashion during in-vivo synthesis, leading to an entirely stereoregular polyester. However, along with these advantages, there are also significant limitations to bacterial polyester synthesis. First, there are some substrates that are not incorporated into the polyester by the bacteria. Second, normal metabolism leads to the polyester, always incorporating a fraction of hydroxybutyrate monomers. Third, the backbone is always comprised of four-atom, A-B type 3-hydroxy acid repeat units with variations appearing in the side chain at carbon-3.

Full text
Abstract:
Enzymatic degradation tests of polymer in form of nanoparticle (NP) were used to study the biodegradation of two different types of polymers polytetramethylene adipitate (SP4/6) and polybutylene isophthalate (PBI) by two commercially available lipases. The two lipases, which are from the yeast Candida cylindracea (CcL) and Pseudomonas species (PsL) respectively, exhibited sufficient degradation activities both for the aliphatic model polyester SP4/6 and the aromatic model polyester PBI and the use of polyester NPs has dramatically shortened the duration of enzymatic degradation tests. It has also been noticed that the degradation percentage of the polyesters was in the range of 35-50%, probably due to the formation of low molecular weight intermediates that are not accessible to the enzymes. Since biodegradation of polymers is a surface process, the adsorption of lipases on the surface of polyester NPs may play an important role. In order to gain some insights into the adsorption process of enzymes on polymer NPs, the adsorption of CcL and PsL lipases on two hardly degradable polyesters polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was investigated in this work. The adsorption of lipases on these polyester NPs showed a fast kinetic. Langmuir isotherms were found to be generally suitable to describe the adsorption of lipases on polyester NPs, especially at low lipase concentration under the experimental conditions. However, significant derivations from Langmuir isotherms were observed at high lipase concentrations.

Full text
Abstract:
Polyurethanes (PU) are widely used synthetic polymers. The growing amount of PU used industrially has resulted in a worldwide increase of plastic wastes. The related environmental pollution as well as the limited availability of the raw materials based on petrochemicals requires novel solutions for their efficient degradation and recycling. The degradation of the polyester PU Impranil DLN by the polyester hydrolases LC cutinase (LCC), TfCut2, Tcur1278 and Tcur0390 was analyzed using a turbidimetric assay. The highest hydrolysis rates were obtained with TfCut2 and Tcur0390. TfCut2 also showed a significantly higher substrate affinity for Impranil DLN than the other three enzymes, indicated by a higher adsorption constant K. Significant weight losses of the solid thermoplastic polyester PU (TPU) Elastollan B85A-10 and C85A-10 were detected as a result of the enzymatic degradation by all four polyester hydrolases. Within a reaction time of 200 h at 70 °C, LCC caused weight losses of up to 4.9% and 4.1% of Elastollan B85A-10 and C85A-10, respectively. Gel permeation chromatography confirmed a preferential degradation of the larger polymer chains. Scanning electron microscopy revealed cracks at the surface of the TPU cubes as a result of enzymatic surface erosion. Analysis by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated that the observed weight losses were a result of the cleavage of ester bonds of the polyester TPU.

Abstract:
Buried in Polyester is a collection of essays in three parts loosely connected around the theme of the loss of my mother. Much like JoAnn Beard's The Boys of My My Youth, the essays hold up pieces of my life for inspection and puts them down again, not always with a sense of resolution. The subtext of the piece revolves around the search to put together the pieces of what my life was before and after my mother, and the transition from girlhood to adulthood with the absence of my mother. I hope also to explore how the self splits after a traumatic death, and the desperate attempt at recreation that takes the place of genuine mourning. The final three pieces are a trilogy exploring my father's deteriorating health and my attempts to connect with him while somehow recapturing the self that I lost.<br>Department of English

Abstract:
Dendrimers are a fairly new class of macromolecule. They have many potential uses including use in surface coatings and as host molecules. There are two main methods available for constructing dendrimers, the convergent approach and the divergent approach. In this thesis dendrimers were synthesised using the divergent approach. In chapter one our original aim was to synthesise dendrimers based on bicine, but there were complications involved in synthesis and storage of the monomer. However, it was possible to make a iminium salt using bicine as the starting material, which was reacted with various nucleophiles. With 2,2-bishydroxymethylpropionic acid it was possible to produce a generation one protected dendrimer, but deprotection could not be achieved. In the third chapter the syntheses of dendrimers based on 4,4-bis(4- hydroxyphenyl)valeric acid are described. Dendrimers were successfully synthesised up to and including generation two. These were made using various esterification methods. Chapter four describes the synthesis of functionalised dendrimers. Generation one deprotected dendrimers were reacted with a variety of reagents to produce pent-4-enoyl, urethane and lineoyl functionalised dendrimers. Chapter five describes the analysis of dendrimers using MALDI-MS. For every dendrimer synthesis molecular weights were obtained well within the boundaries of experimental error. It was also shown how preparation time and laser power can affect the spectra obtained.

Abstract:
Extended Abstract The purpose of this paper is to present a proven coating system that can perform for more than 30 years corrosion protection with no maintenance in splash zones. This coating system technology, Special Flake Glass Polyester (SFGP) has been reintroduced in the new edition of Norsok M501 for paint system 7A and 7D emphasizing that very high durability has been experienced with glass flake polyester coatings. Polyesters are extremely tough and durable polymers used in aircraft, vehicle, and marine construction, even fake marble kitchen table-top can be made of polyesters. For this paper we will be talking about a special flake glass polyester technology (SFGP) that uses chemically resistant and inert C-Glass glass flakes as reinforcement to significantly increase its overall durability while improving its barrier properties. SFGP comes with a long track record in jobs at offshore and onshore facilities and has the most extensive 3rd Party Verification for products of its kind and purpose with proven protection after 30 years of service. This paper will present this long track record and third party testing as evidence that the technology can surpass its years in service to extend the life of assets to beyond 40 years. The tests carried out by independent laboratories and verified by third parties gives evidence of reduced life cycle costs and extended lifetime performance. Some examples will be presented showing high adherence after 35 and 22 years of service in splash zone areas of offshore assets. Fingerprint tests proven the technology applied 35 years ago was the same used today and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) proved the coating with 35 years applied in the asset is still working and protecting the asset. Some other tests and features of the technology will be presented.

Abstract:
Abstract The "Oil Patch" while producing the raw materials that go into the manufacturing of thermoset epoxy and polyester resins, have created corrosion problems that are solved with the epoxy and polyester resins. We could call this the "Corrosion Chain" of events. The oil industry has always been aggressive testing and using materials that solve corrosion, structural and safety problems. Without the willingness of the industry personnel to try different materials, and utilize educated gambles, the lining and coating industry would be twenty years behind. The Federal Law RCRA (Resource Conservation Recovery Act) has the full attention of the industry. No products (even clean water) shall contaminate the soil. Secondary containment is now as important as primary containment. In the past year we have been exposed to more new chemical environment to protect than ever before. Prior to RCRA, the industry was satisfied with concrete containment and asphalt expansion joints to contain spills. If the concrete deteriorates simply bust out and replace. Some companies didn't even bother with this fix. There have been a tremendous increase in the use of secondary containment coatings utilizing epoxies and polyesters to protect the environment. The criteria for selection and uses of these materials will be discussed in general terms.

Abstract We have developed a duplex protection system of saturated polyester powder coating and galvanizing to protect outside telecommunications plants in high-corrosion locations. The important thing in this duplex system is to guarantee the adhesiveness of the coating on the zinc substrate. We have confirmed that the adhesiveness of the coating is significantly improved by applying metal spraying instead of hot-dipped galvanizing. In addition, we applied plastic spraying to the metal-sprayed articles. We obtained a smooth surface of saturated polyester coating using specially developed polyester resin with high fluidity. This coating was confirmed to have good adhesiveness, impact resistance, and scratch strength.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The durability of a coating can be described in a simplified manner as how well it adheres to the substrate and how well it performs over time once exposed to the environment. Oil and gas pipeline coatings need to withstand exposure to both mechanical and chemical forces for long periods of time to extend the life of the pipeline. A new class of 100% solids polyester polyols have been developed which can offer improved performance in urethane coating applications compared to other common protective systems such as epoxies, aspartics and solventborne polyesters. Coatings made with the new polyols will be shown to match or exceed the adhesion, abrasion, weatherability and chemical resistance when compared to these other technologies. By providing a 100% solids resin with low viscosity, the overall VOCs of the coating formulation can be reduced compared to traditional polyesters that often require higher levels of solvent to achieve a workable viscosity. Compatibility with a variety of other resins will also be discussed, which can further expand the formulator's toolbox.

Abstract:
Abstract A CoNiCrAlY-hBN/Polyester material has recently been developed for clearance control applications in gas turbine compressors that use titanium alloy blades. While engine tests serve as the final evaluation of the coating performance, quality assurance laboratories and production shops would rely upon the more readily available coating hardness values to predict performance. This paper will focus on the reproducibility of coating macrohardness with a plasma spray process. It is shown that plasma spray parameters affect the hardness of CoNiCrAlY-hBN/Polyester coatings by changing the level of polyesters retained in the coating and the volume percentage of metallic matrix. The correlation between hardness, retained polyester level and microstructure of these coatings is captured in a coating hardness map from which desired microstructure and polyester entrapment are determined. Based on the understanding of the correlation between coating hardness and microstructural features, the use of additional criteria other than hardness such as retained polyester level and non-metallic portion of the coating is recommended in order to assure the quality of the coating more effectively.

Abstract:
Polyester fibre ropes are now an accepted solution for deepwater mooring of production platforms and a single high tenacity fibre grade is widely used. Few studies of other fibres have been reported but polyesters can be produced with a range of properties by varying drawing parameters, and other stiffer fibres are also available. This paper presents a study of these alternative fibre rope solutions, performed within the French Mooring Line project. First, in order to obtain the input data necessary for mooring line analyses an extensive test program was performed to characterize polyester, improved polyester, PEN, LCP, aramid and HMPE fibre ropes from yarns up to 800 ton break load ropes. Tests at different scales have allowed property transfer to be quantified. Rope modelling has been used in parallel to examine the influence of material and structural parameters. Then, using these data, a series of analyses was run by engineering contractors, which quantified the benefits of higher stiffness for different supports (semi-submersible, production platform and offloading buoy) down to 2500 meter depth. Under certain conditions the stiffer ropes can result in significantly reduced rope diameter and weight.
