Enzymatic synthesis of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid-based semi-aromatic polyamides: enzymatic polymerization kinetics, effect of diamine chain length and thermal properties

Abstract

Sustainable FDCA-based semi-aromatic polyamides are produced <italic>via</italic> enzymatic polymerization. The enzymatic polymerization kinetics, effect of diamine chain length, and thermal properties of the resulting polyamides are investigated.
