Limonene is a cyclic monoterpene that has the potential to be used as monomer in poymerizations. This compound can be commercially synthesized or obtained by extracting from industrial waste (citrus peel), allowing its use in large scale applications. In addition to the prospect of generating a material from a renewable and non-toxic source, this project aims to create a material with cha…
The concern with the amount of non-degradable plastic of fossil origin present on the planet has motivated the search for more sustainable alternatives. Chitosan, obtained from crustaceans, stands out as an option to produce biodegradable films. Because it has good biocompatibility, it is often associated with additives to improve its properties. Coming from citrus industry residues, limo…
Atom-Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) is known as the most powerful controlled polymerization technique. This technology provides a synthesizing ability of well-defined polymers with a wide range of monomers at low temperatures and also with an impurities-resistant process. However, transition metal catalysts, which are in the process, lead to the polymers contamination. The high co…
Poly(2-(difluoromethoxy)ethyl acrylate), synthesized via ATRP, made it possible to obtain amphiphilic block copolymers that can self-assemble into spherical micelles quite easily. The monomer used, 2-(difluoromethoxy)ethyl acrylate (DFMOEA), presents great potential to lead the development of new advanced materials with partially fluorinated segments, since it is easy to be synthesized an…

In this proposal, we aim to develop biopolymer-based hydrogels functionalized with photocrosslinkable moieties and with oligomer derived from limonene as a way to overcome the limitations of employing its precursor as a bioactive component to serve medical applications. Besides exploring the unprecedented use of a terpene oligomer, this proposal will address the promise photocrosslinkable…
