H2O-Initiated Polymerization of L-Lactide
- Water-initiated ring-opening polymerizations (ROPs) of L-lactide (LA) were performed in bulk at 140 °C, whereupon 11 different salts or complexes of low-toxic metal ions such as tin (II), Zn(II), Zr(IV), and Bi(III) were used as catalysts. Only four catalysts gave satisfactory results despite a long reaction time (24 h). The influence of the temperature was studied with tin (II) 2-ethylhexanoate (SnOct2), dibutyltin oxide (Bu2SnO), and zinc bis-acetylacetonate (Zn(acac)2) and zirconium acetylacetonate (Zr(acac)4). With SnOct2, Bu2SnO and Zr(acac)4 the time was varied at 140 °C to compare their reactivity. Furthermore, two series of ROPs were carried out with variation of the LA/H2O ratio to verify the control of the molecular weight by the monomer-initiator ratio. Bi- or tri-modal molecular weight distributions (MWD) were found for most of the ROPs and bimodal melting endotherms in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) heating traces.

The thickness and dependence of the 3D packing of the crystallites were monitored by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements.…
