Sustainable Industrial Applications via Solid State Polycondensation

Abstract:
The core of the lecture lies in the area of the so called "green" polymerization processes towards the synthesis of polyamides, including high-performance materials. The solid-state polycondensation route, starting from polyamide monomers, will be analysed and correlated to the resulting polyamide structures, covering aliphatic and semi-aromatic repeating units. In particular it is claimed that monomer structures more organized, in terms of polar coordination and rigidity, reveal different modes of SSP behavior with the emphasis given on the undesirable solid-melt transition during reaction. Chemoenzymatic strategies will be also discussed, while the use of micro-reactors as a cost-effective research technique is launched for reaction monitoring, identification of optimum reaction conditions, and safe process scale-up.
