Abstract:
Block copolymers include a poly β-methyl-δ-valerolactone (PMVL) block. The PMVL blocks can be formed from biosynthesized β-methyl-δ-valerolactone (MVL). The PMVL block may be formed from biosynthesized β-methyl-δ-valerolactone (MVL) with a 14C/12C ratio greater than zero. The block copolymers can include hard blocks. The block copolymers can be thermoplastic elastomers. The block copolymers may include a polylactic acid (PLA) block.
