Directly starting fromD,L-lactic acid (LA) and melamine (MA), novel star-shaped biodegradable material poly (lactic acid-co-melamine) [P(LA-co-MA)] as a kind of potential flame retardant is synthesized via melt polycondensation. When the molar feed ration(LA)/n(MA) is 60/1, the optimal synthetic conditions are discussed. After the prepolymerization at 140 °C for 8 h, using 0.4wt% stannous chloride as the catalyst, the melt copolymerization at 160 °C for 8 h gives the copolymer with the biggest intrinsic viscosity 0.87 dLg-1.

Directly using L-lactic acid (L-LA) and glucose (Glu) as the starting materials, novel biodegradable material poly(L-lactic acid-co-glucose) [P(L-LA-co-Glu)] was synthesized via direct melt polycondensation. The copolymers P(L-LA-co-Glu)s at different molar feed ratios were characterized by FTIR,1H-NMR, GPC, DSC and XRD. All poly(L-lactic acid) modified by Glu was partly crystalline. And their Mw, Tm, and crystallinity basically increased with the increase of the molar feed ratio n(L-LA) : n(Glu). When n(Glu) : n(L-LA) was 1 : 750, the biggest Mw was 5900 Da, and all Mwcould meet the requirement for drug delivery application.

When poly (lactic acid-co-melamine) [P(LA-co-MA)] is synthesized via direct melt polycondensation (DMP), with the more MA in the feed content, the copolymer with a three-MA-core structure linked by the ether bond is formed. Increasing the molar feed ration(LA)/n(MA), the structure of the copolymers is gradually changed from multi-core structure into SPLA structure only containing one MA core, and a peak value of Mwexists as expected. The aromatic cores with different functional groups have an important influence on the Mwpeak value, and the internal factors are the conjugate effect and the nucleophilicity caused by the different functional groups themselves.

Using 1,3,5-benzenetrioxyundecanol (mTU) as the core, and L-lactic acid (L-LA) as starting material, a novel star-shaped poly(L-lactic acid) (SPLLA) was synthesized via direct melt polycondensation with simple process and low-cost. The obtained biodegradable polymer SPLLA was systematically characterized with the intrinsic viscosity [η], FTIR, 1H-NMR, GPC and XRD. The Mw, Tg, Tm, ΔH, crystallinity, crystallite size of all SPLLA basically increased with the increase of the molar feed ratio n(L-LA) : n(mTU). When n(L-LA) : n(mTU) was 500:1, the biggest Mw was 8600, but all Mw meet the requirement for drug delivery application.

Directly starting from D,L-lactic acid (LA) and melamine (MA), poly (lactic acid-co- melamine) [P(LA-co-MA)] as a kind of potential polymeric flame retardant is synthesized via melt polycondensation. The properties of P(LA-co-MA) s at different molar feed ratios are characterized by XRD, DSC and TGA. Most decomposition temperatures of P(LA-co-MA) s are higher than these of homopolymer poly (D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA). For the char yield, all copolymers have higher char yield than PDLLA. Furthermore, the more MA in the feed content, the higher char yield.
