1. Functional Cyclic Carbonate Monomers and Polycarbonates : Synthesis and Biomaterials Applications
Abstract : The present work describes a selection of strategies for the synthesis of functional aliphatic polycarbonates. Using an end-group functionalization strategy, a series of DNA-binding cationic poly(trimethylene carbonate)s was synthesized for application as vectors for non-viral gene delivery. READ MORE

2. Lipase-Mediated Syntheses of Trimethylolpropane-Based Biolubricant and Cyclic Carbonate
Abstract : Abstract Biocatalysis is considered as benign and efficient alternative to chemical catalysis for organic syntheses. Lipases are the most versatile biological catalysts implemented so far with great potential for production of different chemicals and materials in non-conventional reaction media. READ MORE

3. Development of nitrogen-containing materials for capture and catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to value-added chemicals
Abstract : Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have become a critical environmental issue because a large amount of CO2 releasing into the atmosphere, particularly from the massive use of fossil fuels, is the major factor promoting the global warming and climate change. To mitigate the CO2 emissions, Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) can be one of important solutions. READ MORE

5. Synthesis of Biomedical Polymers and Scaffold Design
Abstract : This work has focused on the development of new improved synthesis methods of biodegradable aliphatic polymers and on the preparation of porous scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. The aim of the first part of the work was the synthesis of poly(p-dioxanone) (PPDX) homopolymers with high molecular weights using the cyclic tin alkoxide initiator 1-di-n-butyl-1-stanna-2,5-dioxacyclopentane.
