Published: Feb. 5, 2025

Abstract As a pivotal bio‐based building block, 2,5‐furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) holds immense and broad application potential in the chemistry industry. Its polymeric derivative, polyethylene furandicarboxylate (PEF), emerges as an appealing alternative to conventional petroleum‐based terephthalate (PET). The electrochemical route for oxidizing 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into FDCA presents significant advantages over thermochemical processes, without requirements of high temperature, pressure, chemical oxidants, precious metal catalysts, featuring higher energy efficiency. Furthermore, electrosynthesis at anode can be synergistically integrated with selective reduction reactions cathode, enabling simultaneous production two desirable value‐added products further enhancing overall utilization This work reviews advancements electrocatalytic HMF (EHTF), encompassing catalyst design, reaction mechanisms, coupling strategies, reactor configurations. It also indicates challenges opportunities EHTF provides insights future development directions.

Biobased Polyethylene Furanoate: Production Processes, Sustainability, and Techno‐Economics

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 8(11)

Published: July 8, 2024

Abstract Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) is a biobased plastic, similar to synthetic polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which produced from the platform chemical 2,5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Much of literature surrounding PEF focused on unit processes, with little regard for their sustainability and economic viability. In this comprehensive critical review, entire process production, feedstock polymerization upstream applications, critically examined. Identification individual pathways capable producing efficiently favorable properties while considering viability environmental are presented. For each operation, recent technological developments summarized, recommendations made based efficiency. The collection findings both life cycle assessments (LCA) techno‐economic analyses (TEA) facilitated identification greatest potential production.

A Sustainable Poly(butylene furandicarboxylate) (PBF)-Based Copolyester Containing a Cyclic Ether Structure: Integrated with High Thermal, Mechanical, and Hydrolytic Degradable Properties

ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(1), P. 658 - 668

Published: Jan. 3, 2025

Designing and synthesizing bio-based furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA)-based copolyesters with high thermal, mechanical, modest hydrolytic properties present a significant challenge. In this study, poly(butylene furandicarboxylate) (PBF) was modified the cyclic ether diol 2,5-tetrahydrofurandimethanol (THFDM). The resulting sustainable furandicarboxylate-co-hydroxymethyl tetrahydrofuran (PBThFs) displayed random microstructures molecular weights (Mw) ranging from 20.8 to 62.6 × 103 g/mol. PBThFs transitioned partially crystalline fully amorphous state while maintaining thermal stability above 367 °C. tensile strength modulus of PBF were 49 1479 MPa, respectively, PBThF15 (with feed molar ratio THFDM units at 15 mol %) showed improved values 77 1855 MPa. Adding significantly increased glass transition temperature 39.9 74.7 presence linkages in degradation PBThF compared pure PBF. hydrolysis mechanisms clarified using Fukui function analysis DFT calculations, indicating susceptibility hydrolysis. This study demonstrates feasibility high-performance FDCA-based copolyesters, facilitating broad spectrum applications.
