Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/029491
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a copolyester comprising 3-hydroxybutyric acid and exhibiting high biodegradability, and a method for producing said copolyester. A copolyester according to the present invention is a copolyester of 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3HB) and hydroxyalkanoic acid (HA), the copolyester having structural units (3HB-U) derived from 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3HB) and structural units (HA-U) derived from hydroxyalkanoic acid (HA). The content of the structural units (3HB-U) derived from 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3HB) is 1 to 40 mol% relative to 100 mol of all the structural units of the copolyester, and the average chain length of the structural units (3HB-U) derived from 3-hydroxybutyric acid (3HB) in the copolyester is 2 to 20.
