Benefits of technology

The present invention is a bio-based anti-bacterial agent with a rationally designed molecular structure that maximizes its ability to penetrate bacteria and destroy their cell membrane, resulting in high efficiency. The invention also regulates its hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity to create a water-soluble or water-insoluble anti-bacterial agent that can be used in various fields. The raw materials used in the invention are all bio-based, easy to obtain, and the synthesis process avoids the use of toxic catalysts and solvents, which means no complicated post-processing is needed and the catalyst can be recycled. The invention is conducive to scaling up and producing and also conducive to meeting environmental protection requirements and reducing production costs.

Problems solved by technology

The anti-bacterial activity of the above-mentioned oligomers is not high enough to meet the growing performance requirements for anti-bacterial products; and water solubility of the above-mentioned oligomers is not adjustable, resulting in a narrow application range.
In addition, the raw materials used in the synthesis process are expensive and are not biological-based material butyrolactone.
Toxic catalysts and solvents are also used, resulting in complicated post-treatment processes.

Abstract

An efficient anti-bacterial hydroxy acid ester oligomer of the present invention has a general structural formula (I). Starting from the design of molecular structure, the present invention rationally designs the end group and chain length structure of the substance of formula (I), and controls its clogP value, so that the substance of formula (I) of the present invention reaches an appropriate size, which maximizes the ability of the substance of formula (I) to penetrate into the bacteria and destroy the bacterial cell membrane, thereby achieving high anti-bacterial efficiency. By precisely designing the molecular structure, the present invention regulates the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the hydroxy acid ester oligomer to obtain a bio-based anti-bacterial agent with controllable water solubility.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE OF RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present invention claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(a-d) to CN 202111137059.1, filed Sep. 27, 2021; and CN202011155869.5, filed Oct. 26, 2020.BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTIONField of Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a technical field of biomedicine, and more particularly to an efficient anti-bacterial hydroxy acid ester oligomer.Description of Related Arts[0003]Anti-bacterial agents refer to substances which keep the growth or reproduction of certain microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, yeasts, algae, viruses, etc.) below a certain level within a certain period of time. Anti-bacterial agents are widely used in textiles, plastics, detergents, medical supplies and other fields.[0004]With the continuous improvement of living standards, the hygienic requirements for textiles and various household plastics are also getting higher and higher. The continuous improvement of natural and environmental protection standards for ant...
