[kaiasky]

yall she's still around. the time between "oh hey, i can do this in a lab" and "i can do this in an industrial capacity and at a cost that's reasonable and with the variety of structural properties people want out of common plastics" is a long one, and not all things you can do in a lab are particularly easy to scale up.

In particular nopales are... not particularly known for being a "produces tons of biomass very rapidly and harvest in bulk with machinery" kind of plant. And the plastic here, according to the news articles, composts within 2-3 days when submerged in water. which is awesome, but it also means it's not ideal for holding your moist pb&j or being the wrap over a chicken breast or w/e.

Here's an excerpt from a 2023 opinion/survey piece from Dr. Sandra Pascoe Ortiz (the lady in this bbc video) and i wanna draw your attention to the fact that she is NOT saying "i have solved plastic with my nopales, and I need protection from big oil hitmen" she's saying "collectively we've made a lot of progress on this, but it's a complicated problem and there's a lot of issues we still need to solve with the science, industrial engineering, economics, politics, and social awareness"

... [some] Bioplastics may come from biological material but are chemically the same as petroleum-derived plastic, the only thing that changes is the source from which they are obtained; for example, with Bio-polyethylene terephthalate (Bio-PET), the "Bio" only indicates that its origin is vegetable. This compound is neither biodegradable nor compostable, it is considered a bioplastic only because of its origin. The environmental benefit of this type of material is that, because it comes from a plant, a certain amount of carbon dioxide is captured during the production of its raw material (during the life of those plants). In general terms, the production process of bioplastics compared to petroleum-derived plastics has less of an environmental impact in terms of the balance of greenhouse gas emissions.

It is also important to note that the fact that a bioplastic is biodegradable or compostable does not mean that it can be thrown anywhere and will just disappear. Most biodegradable or compostable bioplastic waste requires processing under controlled conditions to be incorporated back into nature: they must be composted at industrial level. For example, polylactic acid (PLA) takes 80 years in the open air to biodegrade or, if composted industrially, takes days or a few months depending on the conditions of the process.

The market for both biodegradable and non-biodegradable bioplastics is growing and these materials have been gaining ground over petroleum-based plastics (although not enough). The main biodegradable bioplastics on the market are polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), PLA, starch blends, polybutylene succinate (PBS), cellulose films and polyhydroxyalcanoates (PHAs). According to data from European Bioplastic in cooperation with the Nova-Institute from 2021, the most common applications of these materials are in flexible and rigid packaging, consumer goods, textile fibers and in agriculture, and it is projected that by 2026 the production of biodegradable bioplastics will be considerably higher than that of non-biodegradable bioplastics.

Bioplastics have several drawbacks. Some the raw materials they use are often also used for food, there is not enough production and their costs are higher than those of conventional plastics. It is often the consumer who has to absorb the price difference and is not in a position to do so, adding another reason why, so far, they have not been able to significantly displace petroleum-based plastics. Bioplastics and biodegradable plastics are part of the solution to the problem of plastic pollution, as they generally have reduced environmental impacts in their production processes and, in some cases, because it is feasible to treat their waste, but they are not the only and absolute solution; the problem of plastic pollution is more complex and is still far from being completely solved. For these materials to reach their full potential, it will be essential to have regulations to regulate their production, certifications in terms of biodegradability and proper education for buyers to choose products that help in the conservation of the environment.

Finally, it should be remembered that pollution is mainly generated by the misuse of materials and poor disposal of their waste. The real problem is the abuse of plastic materials, whether they are biodegradable or not, since they are mainly used in containers, packaging and single-use products, and most of the time they are discarded not because they are useless or their useful life has ended, but because of the convenience of using and throwing away. Certain quantities of plastics can be recycled; however, when they are mixed with other types of waste they become contaminated and when different types of plastic are not adequately separated, this recycling becomes practically impossible. Nevertheless, the recycling of some bioplastics has not yet been trialed, not because it cannot be done, but because of the small quantities of these materials compared to conventional plastics, which makes it practically unaffordable. So, instead of blaming plastic materials for existing environmental pollution, we need to look closely at how we use resources and dispose of waste. No matter how many bioplastics or "environmentally friendly" materials there are, if we do not reduce the production of these types of materials and consequently their waste, there will be no real solutions. We need to be aware of what we consume, support initiatives that promote environmental care and demand the commitment of governments to legislate and enforce laws, as well as encouraging businesses to change their materials and production proceses.

Like, not to put too fine a point on it, but if your response every time you see a news article about some tech and it doesn't immediately fundamentally transform society is "must have been suppressed by the elites and their killsquads", you WILL end up drinking the conspiracy kool-aid. And I also think it's disrespectful to scientists like Pascoe Ortiz to imagine that the science is fundamentally easy, instead of something that takes years of dedication and hard work and many false-starts and dead ends! If you're impressed by her work then,.. put some respect on her and her colleagues work!

Adipic Acid: An Essential Raw Material in Several Industrial Applications

Hexanedioic acid is produced on an industrial scale via a two-step process. In the first step, a mixture of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone undergoes oxidation in the presence of a nitric acid/acetic acid catalyst system to form a mixture of cyclohexanone oxime and cyclohexanol oxime. This mixture is then hydrolyzed using sulfuric acid to yield hexanedioic acid.

Hexanedioic acid is an organic compound with the formula (CH2)4(COOH)2. It is a white, crystalline, water-soluble solid. Some of its key properties that make it useful commercially include its six-carbon backbone that allows it to acted as a synthetic substitute for hexamethylenediamine, its acidity due to the two carboxyl groups, and its solid state at room temperature which enables ease of handling and transport. Its melting point is 151°C and boiling point is 320°C.

Uses in Nylon Production

By far the largest application and consumer of Adipic Acid is in the production of nylon 66. In this process, hexanedioic acid reacts with hexamethylenediamine to form the polyamide polymer known as nylon 66. Nylon 66 is used extensively to produce fibers, films and engineering resins. Its properties such as high strength, flexibility and toughness have made nylon 66 an essential material in everything from fabrics and clothing to carpets, ropes and wires. The fiber has good resistance to abrasion, sunlight and detergents, making it ideal for carpets and upholstery. Films produced from nylon 66 have applications as food packaging and garbage container lining.

Other Synthetic Polymer Production

Besides nylon 66, Adipic Acid also finds use as a monomer in making other synthetic polyamides and polyesters that have wide-ranging applications. It can react with diamines like dodecamethylenediamine and dimer acid to produce nylon 610 and nylon 612. These polymers demonstrate good dimensional stability, weatherability and chemical resistance and are used in engineering plastics and automotive parts. Hexanedioic acid is also used to synthesize poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) or PBAT, which is a biodegradable polyester alternative to conventional PET in applications like compostable shopping bags and food packaging.

Production of Plasticizers

Adipic Acid derivatives like dioctyl adipate, diisononyl adipate and bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate are commonly used as high-quality plasticizers. Almost 30% of the hexanedioic acid manufactured globally is consumed in making these plasticizers. They are added to PVC to make it soft and flexible for applications like wires and cables, automobile interior parts, flooring and waterproof sheeting. Plasticized PVC demonstrates better longevity, lower temperature sensitivity and stronger resistance to chemicals compared to other plasticizers.

Niche Applications

Smaller quantities of hexanedioic acid find niche applications as well. It is used as a starting material in pharmaceutical processes and to produce compounds like nylon 66 fiber for specialty brushes. Hexanedioic acid serves as an intermediate in manufacturing dyestuffs, perfumes and plastics. It also acts as an acidulant in certain foods to impart a pleasant tart taste without being too strong. Some manufacturers use it to produce Feed supplementary acidifiers and anticaking agents for fertilizer. Hexanedioic acid has even found application as an essential ingredient in e-liquids for vaping devices.

Considering its versatility and extensive usage, Adipic Acid is projected to experience steady demand growth worldwide in the coming years. Factors such as rising consumption of nylon fibers, films and plasticizers along with increasing industrialization and per-capita plastic consumption willcontinue to drive market expansion. While nylon and plasticiser production remains the core revenue generator, newer applications in specialty polymers and biodegradable plastics are likely to gain importance. However, availability of substitutes remains a challenge, necessitating optimization of manufacturing processes to ensure competitiveness. Ongoing R&D could see hexanedioic acid being utilized in more fields, consolidating its status as a workhorse industrial chemical.

Overall, this comprehensive article provides technical insights about the industrial production, key properties and diverse applications of hexanedioic acid which establish its importance as a raw material in several sectors.
