Poly(Propylene Carbonate), Old Copolymers of Propylene Oxide and Carbon Dioxide with New Interests: Catalysis and Material Properties
Abstract
Current research efforts in the field of poly(propylene carbonate) prepared from carbon dioxide and propylene oxide are reviewed. Interest in the polymer has been revived in light of the current discussion on sustainability and biodegradability. The progress in understanding and increasing the activity of heterogeneous zinc catalysts is steadily increasing, but without a quantum leap. The microstructure, the properties of the melt, and the solid material are given. The material property profile can be expanded through the synthesis of terpolymers based on propylene oxide, carbon dioxide and other epoxides, lactones or anhydrides etc. with the same catalyst; or the preparation of poly(propylene carbonate) blends with biodegradable or biocompatible components like calcium carbonate, wood flour, fibers, or other biodegradable polymers.

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.
