A degradable copolymer filament comprising an internal structure having the following separate phases: (a) a matrix phase comprised as a primary component of a polymer segment which exhibits a tensile Young's modulus of 2 GPa or less and a strength retention of 50% or more after two weeks in water at 37.degree. C., pH 7.3, and (b) a micro-dispersed phase comprised as a primary component of a polymer segment which exhibits a tensile strength of 200 MPa or more and a strength reduction greater than the matrix phase in water at 37.degree. C., pH 7.3. The weight ratio of each component in the matrix phase and dispersed phase is 50:50 to 95:5, respectively, and the dispersed phase a needle structure oriented by stretching in the fiber direction. A degradable monofilament having an excellent mechanical strength and flexibility, moderate hydrolyzability, high ligature stability and being suitable as a material of surgical absorbable suture can be obtained. A preparation process is also provided.

摘要:
A degradable polymer network obtained by adding from 0.2 to 10 parts by weight of a foaming agent to 100 parts by weight of a polylactic acid-base resin composition comprising from 80 to 100% by weight of polylactic acid or a lactic acid-hydroxycarboxylic acid copolymer and from 0 to 20% by weight of a plasticizer, conducting melt-foaming extrusion of resulting mixture, and opening the foam cells in the extrudate. The high polymer network is characterized in suitable flexibility and hydrolyzability and thus useful as a material for absorbing oils and body fluids, screens for sunlight, heat-insulating materials, filter media and packaging materials; and does not accumulate as industrial wastes because of hydrolyzability in the natural environment, even though abandoned after use.

There are here disclosed a resin composition comprising a block or a graft copolymer (A) having a polyamino acid as a hydrophilic segment (a-1), and a degradable polymer as a hydrophobic segment (a-2), and a resin (B); and a method of accelerating the hydrolysis of a resin and inhibiting the heat deterioration thereof by mixing this copolymer (A) with the resin (B).
摘要:
The present invention provides a nylon composition having increased hydrolyzability which is obtained by physically mixing 100 parts by weight of a nylon with 1 to 50 parts by weight of at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid and a copolymer containing 50 mol % or more of a lactic acid unit or a glycolic acid unit as a repeating unit in its chain; and a method for increasing the hydrolyzability of a nylon by preparing such a composition. High hydrolyzability can be imparted to the nylon inherently having extremely low hydrolyzability without impairing its original mechanical strength. Therefore, various molded articles made from the nylon can be hydrolyzed under natural circumstances, and thus the wastes are not stored.
摘要:
A breathable, hydrolyzable, porous film having long-term stability in mechanical properties which is obtained by the process comprising adding from 40 to 250 parts by weight of a finely-powdered filler having an average particle size of from 0.3 to 4 .mu.m to 100 parts by weight of a polylactic acid-based resin composition comprising from 80 to 95% by weight of polylactic acid or a lactic acid-hydroxycarboxylic acid copolymer and from 5 to 20% by weight of a plasticizer comprising a citric acid ester, melting and film-forming the resultant mixture, and successively stretching the thus-obtained film 1.1 times or more at least in the direction of the axis; and which is consequently useful as a material for leakproof films of sanitary materials such as a paper diaper and packaging materials, and does not accumulate as wastes because of hydrolyzability in the natural environment in the case of being abandoned after use.
