Abstract

The invention relates to a lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst and a copolymerization method. The lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst relates to a nitrogenous bisphenol oxygen-based binuclear aluminum complex. The copolymerization method comprises the following steps of: adding lactide and epsilon-caprolactone into a reaction system sequentially or simultaneously, and carrying out copolymerization in a solvent-free system or an organic solvent medium under the catalysis of an appropriate of alcohol and nitrogenous bisphenol oxygen-based binuclear aluminum complex; and obtaining a lactide and epsilon-caprolactone copolymer through purifying after the copolymerization is finished. The high-efficiency lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst can realize synthesis of a lactide / epsilon-caprolactone segmented copolymer, a gradient copolymer, a wedge-shaped copolymer and a random copolymer. The lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst has very remarkably advantages of easily-obtained raw materials, simple polymerization method, various copolymer structures, regulating and controlling availability, higher catalysis activity and capabilities of obtaining the lactide and epsilon-caprolactone copolymer with high molecular weight and meeting requirements of the industrial department. A structural formula of the lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst is shown in a figure described in the specification.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lactide / ε-caprolactone copolymerization catalyst and a method for catalyzing the lactide / ε-caprolactone copolymerization. Background technique [0002] Aliphatic polyester materials have been extensively studied due to their good biocompatibility and degradability. In recent years, it has been widely used in the field of biomedicine, such as slow-release materials for drugs, implanted materials in vivo, surgical sutures, orthopedic enclosure materials, etc.; in addition, it has also achieved certain results in the packaging industry, textile industry and agricultural industry. Progress. The monomers currently used in the research of polylactone materials include lactide, ε-caprolactone, glycolate and butyrolactone; among the above monomers, lactide can be obtained by dimerization of lactic acid, and lactic acid It can be fermented from crops, so the source of raw materials is wide and the price is low. The good machinabili...
