**Polyglucanurethanes: Cross-Linked** 

**Polyurethanes Based on Microbial** 

Considering environmental protection and resolution a number of ecological problems (including problem of recourses for chemical synthesis depletion) synthesis of the biodegradable polymer materials becomes one of the most actual tasks of modern polymer chemistry. Among ways of environmental protection from polymer waste (keeping on waste deposits, burials, incineration, pyrolysis, recycling) there can be distinguished the method of minimization of ecological pollution due to creation of polymers able to be destructed under influence of natural factors such – chemical (oxygen, air, water), physical (sun light, heat), biological (bacteria, fungi) etc. These factors are very effective and lead to fragmentation of polymer as a result of macromolecule degradation and turning it into low-molecular compounds which become part of natural circuit of substance. In other words biodestruction is reliable and comparatively fast method of utilization. Usually it can be achieved by implication of natural compounds fragments into polymer structure. Other promising method is biopolymers modification with further creation of new synthetic polymers able for degradation under biological factors. Development of this method in future allows to resolve one of the most actual modern problems and to substitute petroleum refining products as the base of chemical synthesis with renewable source. It is also relevant using as reagents

economically effective products which are cheaper than oil refining raw materials.

Purpose of our study was to create new polymerizing systems possessing above metioned attractive features. Therefore new polyglucanurethane (PGU) networks were obtained on the base of microbial polysaccharide xanthan and blocked polyisocyanate (PIC) using environment friendly method. Biopolymer application as reagent provides both preserving advantages of initial materials and developing new advanced properties of obtained biodegradable materials due to chemical modification. Replacement of toxic compounds
