Polyhydroxybutyrate-hydroxyhexanoate

The nomenclature of PHAs and their classification are still in the process of evolving, because new structures are continuing to be discovered. The main biopolymer in the PHA family is a homopolymer polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB). The most conunon copolymer is poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV), whose chemical structure is presented in Figure 9.4. However, there are others, such as poly(hydroxybulyrate-co-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHx), poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyoctanoate) (PHBO) and poly(ltydroxybulyrate-co-hydroxyoctadecanoate) (PHBOd), for example. [Pg.166]
