Alternative Monomers Based on Lignocellulose and Their Use for Polymer Production
Open accessAbstract
Polymeric materials play a key role in modern industry. Owing to outstanding and very versatile properties of polymers, they have rather quickly occupied the great niche of commodities. World plastic production is continuously growing from 1.7 Mton/year in 1950 to 288 Mton/year in 2012. Fossil sources are still required for production of the major part of polymers, as only 5% of chemicals are currently produced from renewable feedstocks. Nevertheless, the application of natural chemicals as feedstocks for the manufacture of polymers is steadily increasing. Different motivations induce such a high interest toward new biobased materials. First of all, the global depletion of petroleum resources and their uneven spread over the world stimulate the rational use of biomass as a renewable and ubiquitous resource. Additionally, overwhelming of dumps with nondegradable plastics causes serious ecological problems, stimulating the developments toward new biodegradable materials. Here we have to point at the distinction between the terms “biobased” and “biodegradable”. Biobased products are manufactured from renewable sources, but several examples of biobased and nonbiodegradable products, e.g., biopolyethylene, biopolyamide 11, exist. It should be noted that each new material has to be tested for biodegradability before it can be claimed to be so. For example, linear polymers produced from itaconic acid are biodegradable, but cross-linking of the polymer chains slows down the biodegradation

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
