基于聚丙交酯的光固化型可生物降解聚氨酯丙烯酸酯的合成和表征

基于聚醚酯的聚氨酯丙烯酸酯具有应用于组织工程支架材料及相关生物医用材料的潜力,研究其可生物降解性及影响因素非常重要.聚醚酯是由PEG(Mw=400)引发L-丙交酯开环聚合而得到的PLLA-PEGPLLA(PLEL)嵌段共聚物.它与二异氰酸酯(异佛尔酮二异氰酸酯和六亚甲基二异氰酸酯)反应,并用甲基丙烯酸羟乙酯封端,得到聚氨酯丙烯酸酯低聚物,然后通过紫外固化得到聚氨酯丙烯酸酯材料(PUA).用NMR和GPC对PLEL二醇和预聚物进行了组成和分子量表征,用DSC和DMA对PUA进行了结构和物理性能表征以及用接触角、吸水率和质量分析方法对材料的亲水性和降解性能进行了表征.结果发现,随着PLLA疏水链段变长,PLEL软段分子量增大,材料的亲水性降低,交联度和降解速率变小.相同的软段,基于硬段HDIHEMA的PUA材料比IPDI-HEMA的PUA有较低的T_g,较高的亲水性和降解速率.因为IPDI有环状结构,降低了PUA与水的相互作用.在3种不同降解条件下,氧化降解速率最高,酶解的速率高于水解.PUA材料的氧化降解速率取决于软段中PEG的含量,PLEL1000-HDI中PEG含量最高,其氧化降解最快,13周内失重率达到82.6%.     

萘酰亚胺类荧光染料及共聚型荧光聚氨酯乳液的合成与性能

The reactive fluorescent dye 4- methoxy-N-(2- hydroxy- 1- hydroxymethylethyl) naphthalimide (MHHNA) was first synthesized by imidization and substitution reactions using 4-bromo-1,8-naphthalic anhydride, 2- amino- 1,3- propanediol, and sodium methoxide as initial materials. A series of covalent fluorescent polyurethane (PU) (PU-MHHNA) emulsions were then fabricated using MHHNA as the chain extender through a phase inverse self-emulsification process. The chemical structure of the synthesized fluorescent dyes and the properties of PU-MHHNA emulsions and their latex films were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) spectroscopy, ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, elemental analysis, ultraviolet- visible (UV- Vis) absorption spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopy, particle size analysis, and xenon arc aging measurements. The fluorescent quantum yields of MHHNA and PU-MHHNA were 0.73 and 0.92, respectively. The amount of MHHNA had no obvious influence on the colloidal properties of the PU-MHHNA emulsions. The maximum wavelength (λ_max) of the UVVis absorption spectra was 360.6 nm, and fluorescent spectroscopy analysis indicated that the maximum excitation wavelength (λ_ex) and maximum emission wavelength (λ_em) of PU-MHHNA in acetone were 362 and 435 nm, respectively. In addition, the fluorescence intensity of PU- MHHNA decreased with increasing temperature. The light fastness and solvent fastness of the PU-MHHNA film were much better than those of the non-covalent fluorescent polyurethane (PU/MBNA) film.

以羧基化多壁碳纳米管(MWCNTs)做模版剂,采用化学氧化法将吡咯(Py)在羧基化MWCNTs表面聚合制备PPy/MWCNTs导电材料,将其添加到溶剂型聚氨酯(PU)溶液中制备了PPy/MWCNTs/PU导电复合材料,研究了Py用量对PPy/MWCNTs及其PU复合材料性能的影响.研究表明,随Py用量的增加,PPy/MWCNTs的长度不变,管径增大,sp~2和sp~3杂化C含量先提高后减少,N的掺杂梯度降低,PPy/MWCNTs的导电率高于羧基化MWCNTs和PPy.当Py用量为羧基化MWCNTs的20%时,其导电率最大.PPy/MWCNTs中N元素的掺杂程度及其管径变化是引起PPy/MWCNTs/PU复合材料的性能不同的主要原因.增加Py用量,MWCNTs中亲水的羧基因对PPy掺杂而消耗,相同导电材料用量时纳米导电粒子数目相对减少,PPy/MWCNTs/PU复合材料的耐水性能提高,定向应力、储能模量和玻璃化温度降低,导电率先增加后减小.当Py用量为羧基化MWCNTs的15%时,导电率最大.     

Crack growth in medical-grade silicone and polyurethane ether elastomers

One major problem with ball and socket artificial discs is the migration of wear particles to the surrounding tissues. This debris can cause inflammation that can lead to implant loosening. Encapsulating the artificial disc with an elastomer sheath could prevent this problem by retaining the wear particles within the disc. The encapsulation sheath will face millions of tensile cycles during the implant life and, therefore, it must have the ability to withstand large strains without fracture. Using cyclic displacement, crack nucleation was applied on dumbbell specimens and crack growth was applied on rectangular specimens with an initial crack. Both tests were performed on Silex silicone and polyurethane ether elastomer specimens, both with a Shore durometer hardness of 40 shore A. No samples completely failed during the crack nucleation tests after five million cycles. The polyurethane ether elastomer showed a slower rate of crack growth life (421 k cycles to reach 70 mm crack length) than silicone elastomer (221 k cycles to reach the same crack length) in the control group. Accelerated ageing decreased the hardness and the crack growth rate of the polyurethane elastomer but had the opposite effect for the silicone elastomer. Gamma sterilization increased the crack growth rate and did not affect the hardness of the polyurethane elastomer. The hardness and the crack growth rate of the silicone elastomer were increased after gamma sterilization.     

Synthesis of activated carbon foams with high specific surface area using polyurethane elastomer templates for effective removal of methylene blue

Carbon foams have gained significant attention due to their tuneable properties that enable a wide range of applications including catalysis, energy storage and wastewater treatment. Novel synthesis pathways enable novel applications via yielding complex, hierarchical material structure. In this work, activated carbon foams (ACFs) were produced from waste polyurethane elastomer templates using different synthesis pathways, including a novel one-step method. Uniquely, the produced foams exhibited complex structure and contained carbon microspheres. The ACFs were synthesized by impregnating the elastomers in an acidified sucrose solution followed by direct activation using CO₂ at 1000 ℃. Different pyrolysis and activation conditions were investigated. The ACFs were characterized by a high specific surface area (S_BET) of 2172 m²/g and an enhanced pore volume of 1.08 cm³/g. Computer tomography and morphological studies revealed an inhomogeneous porous structure and the presence of numerous carbon spheres of varying sizes embedded in the porous network of the three-dimensional carbon foam. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy indicated that the obtained carbon foam was amorphous and of turbostratic structure. Moreover, the activation process enhanced the surface of the carbon foam, making it more hydrophilic via altering pore size distribution and introducing oxygen functional groups. In equilibrium, the adsorption of methylene blue on ACF followed the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 592 mg/g. Based on these results, the produced ACFs have potential applications as adsorbents, catalyst support and electrode material in energy storage systems.     

复合材料柔软性对倒金字塔微结构阵列传感器性能的影响

采用模压成型方法制备了2种柔软性不同的热塑性聚氨酯/短切碳纤维/碳纳米管(TPU/SCF-CNT)复合材料复制物, 其表面上具有倒金字塔微结构阵列, 内部有SCF与CNT共同构成的导电通路. 将复合材料复制物和相应的复合材料平整片封装成柔性传感器. 结果表明, 压力作用下传感器内复制物和平整片之间的接触电阻因倒金字塔底棱的形变而显著降低. 对使用柔软性较高的复合材料封装的传感器, 虽然其相对迟滞稍大, 但压力作用下倒金字塔底棱形变量较大, 且复制物和平整片内导电通路增加量较大, 因此其在0~2.5 kPa的线性区内具有较高的灵敏度(0.32 kPa^?1). 制备的2种传感器均具有快速响应特性, 且能在500 s(约1580次)的循环压缩/释放测试(峰值压力约3 kPa)中保持较稳定的电阻响应. 研究表明, 利用模压成型的表面倒金字塔结构复合材料复制物封装成的柔性压力传感器具有良好的传感性能.     

Electron Spin Resonance Study on Grafting of Tetrafluoroethylene onto Polyethylene

An ESR study has been made on the course of grafting of tetrafluoroethylene onto polyethylene. Alkyl and allyl radicals trapped in the polymers were measured under various grafting conditions. It was observed that alkyl radicals decay very rapidly when monomers are in contact with the irradiated polymer, while allyl radicals decay very slowly even in the presence of monomers as in the decay of radicals in irradiated polymers without monomers. The effect of pre-irradiation temperature on grafting was also studied, and the rate of grafting was found to be much faster for lower pre-irradiation temperatures. From these experimental results it was concluded that alkyl radicals play an important Tole in the initiation reaction of grafting.
