245 results about "Biodegradable polymer" patented technology

Biodegradable polymers are a special class of polymer that breaks down after its intended purpose by bacterial decomposition process to result in natural byproducts such as gases (CO₂, N₂), water, biomass, and inorganic salts. These polymers are found both naturally and synthetically made, and largely consist of ester, amide, and ether functional groups. Their properties and breakdown mechanism are determined by their exact structure. These polymers are often synthesized by condensation reactions, ring opening polymerization, and metal catalysts. There are vast examples and applications of biodegradable polymers.

Preparation method of composite slow-release carbon source

The invention discloses a preparation method of a composite slow-release carbon source, which comprises the following steps: preparing an inner core: uniformly dry-mixing lignin powder and a quick-acting carbon source, and adding a first binder to prepare inner core particles; middle layer wrapping: alternately spraying a second binder and middle layer coating powder until the middle layer is completely wrapped to obtain double-layer particles; outer layer wrapping: alternately spraying a third binder and outer layer coating powder until the outer layer is completely wrapped to obtain three layers of particles; and spraying a biodegradable polymer solution on the surfaces of the three layers of particles to form a coating film. Through the three-layer structural design of the quick start layer, the stable maintenance layer and the long-acting guarantee layer, accurate matching of carbon source release and microbial metabolism requirements is realized. The outer-layer quick-acting carbon source quickly starts microbial activity, the middle layer provides stable and continuous carbon source supply, and the inner core ensures the tail-section treatment effect. The sequential release mechanism effectively avoids burst release waste of the carbon source, so that the utilization rate of the carbon source is greatly improved.
