Study on thermal properties of polyurethane nanocomposites based on organo-sepiolite

The effects of sepiolite modified with γ-aminopropyltriethoxylsilane (KH550-Sp) on thermal properties of polyurethane (PU) nanocomposites were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), and tensile test. The DSC results showed that the glass transition temperature of hard segments in PU/KH550-Sp nanocomposite increased with the increase of KH550-Sp, because sepiolite restricted the formation of hydrogen bonding within hard segments of polyurethane. TG results revealed that the thermal stability of PU was improved by KH550-Sp, and the onset decomposition temperature for PU nanocomposites with a KH550-Sp content of 3 wt% was about 20 °C higher than that for pure PU. The tensile properties of pure PU and nanocomposites before and after ageing 120 °C for 72 h were determined, and it was observed that the percentage loss in tensile strength decreased with the addition of KH550-Sp because of an oxidation barrier of KH550-Sp confirmed by ATR-FTIR.
