Synthesis of sustainable polyesters via ring opening polymerization promoted by phenoxy-imine aluminum complexes

Abstract

Aliphatic polyesters are emerging as an important class of materials alternatives to te petroleum-based polymers. They are often biodegradable and can be produced from renewable feedstocks. In this context, the developmentof controlled polymerization routes such as the ROP of cyclic esters and the ROCOP beteween epoxides and anhydrides, is of high interest... [edited by Author]
