Problems solved by technology

The biggest advantage of the direct condensation polymerization method is that the production cost is low, and the disadvantage is that the molecular weight of the generated polymer is small, and it is difficult to obtain a polymer with high intrinsic viscosity.

The study found that the main reason why it is difficult to obtain high-viscosity polymers by direct condensation polymerization is that the purity of monomers is not enough. The aqueous solution of glycolic acid and hydroxypropionic acid used as copolymerization raw materials contains a small amount of other organic acids. The ratio of condensation polymerization to functional groups The requirements are very high. In order to obtain a polymer with high system viscosity, the carboxyl group and the hydroxyl group must be equal

For equal molar amounts of glycolic acid and hydroxypropionic acid, the number of functional groups of hydroxyl and carboxyl groups is equal, but there
