- An unsaturated aliphatic polyester was synthesized by condensation polymerization to yield the pre-polymer, poly(but-2-ene-1,4-diyl malonate) (PBM), which is applicable as an elastomeric network and as a macroinitiator for the polymerization of cyclic ester monomers. The method of preparation was simple and straightforward with no need to purify the monomers or add a potentially harmful catalyst. The number average molecular weight of the pre-polymer could easily be increased from 5000 to 12000 by extending the reaction time. The pre-polymer PBM was successfully cross-linked with UV-radiation to form a clear, transparent, colorless, flexible, and strong film. PBM as a macroinitiator for L-lactide (LLA) and epsilon-caprolactone (CL) polymerizations highly increased the ductility of the LLA-polymer, while maintaining the strength, compared to PLLA polymerized with common initiators. The tensile properties of PCL were also improved. The linear PCL-PBM and PLLA-PBM polymers were easily cross-linked to give polymers with greater strength and higher modulus as the result.
