The influence of soft segment length on the properties of poly(butylene terephthalate-co-succinate)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) segmented random copolymers

Three series of poly(butylene terephthalate-co-succinate)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) segmented random copolymers with starting PEG number-average molecular weight (M_n(PEG)) at 600, 1000 and 2000, respectively, as well as hard segment poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) molar fraction (M_PBS) increasing from 10% to 30% were synthesized through a transesterification/polycondensation process and characterized by means of GPC, NMR, DSC, WAXD and mechanical testing etc. The investigations were mainly focused on the influence of M_n(PEG) on the properties of resulting copolymers bearing two sorts of hard segments. It is revealed that all the samples show a relatively symmetrical GPC curves with the number-average molecular weight more than 4 × 10⁴, while the polydispersity decreases from 1.9 to 1.4 as the increasing M_n(PEG) because of the prolonged time for polycondensation and the faster exclusion of small molecules by-product with the decreased molten viscosity. The sequence distribution analysis shows that the average sequence length of hard segment PBT decreases while that of PBS increases with the increasing M_PBS and are independent of the soft segment length. The approximate unit degree of randomness as well as the soft segment length turns out that the segments take a statistically random distribution along the backbone. Micro-phase separation structure is verified for the appearance of two glass transition temperatures and two melting points, respectively, in DSC thermograms of most samples. The depression of melting points and the reduction of crystallinity of hard segments with increasing M_PBS are related to the crystal lattice transition from α-PBT to PBS and discussed in the viewpoint of cohensive energy. Mechanical testing results demonstrate that the increase of amorphous domains the increase of M_PBS as well as M_n(PEG) will provide high elongation and good flexibility of copolymer chain. The in vitro degradation experiments show that the partial substitution of aromatic segment PBT with aliphatic PBS will substantially accelerate the degradation rate with enhanced safety of degradation by-products and while changing M_n(PEG) broaden the spectrum to tailor the properties.     

Synthesis and characterization of novel h‐HTBN/PEG PU copolymers for tissue engineering: degradation,phase behavior,and mechanical properties

The phase behavior of the as‐prepared polyether polyurethane (PU) elastomers was investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), polarized optical microscope (POM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). This PU copolymers were composed of different compositions of two soft segments, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and hydrolytically modified hydroxyl‐terminated poly(butadiene‐co‐acrylonitrile) (h‐HTBN) oligomers. The microphase separation behavior is confirmed to occur between soft and hard segments as well as soft and soft segments as the h‐HTBN is incorporated into the PU system, depending on soft‐soft and/or soft‐hard microdomain composition, molecular weight (MW) of PEG, and hydrolysis time of HTBN. The driving force for this phase separation is mainly due to the formation of inter‐ and intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction. The PU‐70, PU‐50 samples with non‐reciprocal composition seem to exhibit larger microphase separation than any other PU ones. The hydrolysis degradation, thermal stability, and mechanical properties of the copolymers were assessed by gravimetry, scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermal gravity analysis (TGA), and tensile test, respectively. The experimental results indicated that the incorporation of h‐HTBN soft segment into PEG as well as low MW of PEG leads to increased thermal and degradable stability based on the intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction. The PU‐70 and PU‐50 copolymers exhibit better mechanical properties such as high flexibility and high ductility because of their larger microphase separation architecture with the hard domains acting as reinforcing fillers and/or physical crosslinking agents dispersed in the soft segment matrix.

Shape memory polyurethanes based on recycled polyvinyl butyral. I. Synthesis and morphology

Shape memory polyurethanes (SMPUs) were synthesized by 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), hexane-1,6-diol (HD), polypropylene glycol (PPG), and recycled polyvinyl butyral (PVB). Dynamic mechanical analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transformation infrared attenuated total reflection spectroscopy was used to characterize the poly (vinylbutyral-urethanes). Micro-phase domain separation of hard and soft segments and phase inversion were investigated. Increasing the hard segment content, i.e., average hard segment molecular weight, leads to an increase in the degree of micro-phase separation, hard domain order and crystallinity. The crystalline hard segment structures combined with the elastic nature of soft segment matrix provide enough physical and chemical crosslinks to have shape memory effect.     

Crystallization and melting behavior of the soft and hard segments in poly(ester-ether)s. I. Ethylene oxide-ethylene terephthalate segmented copolymers

The crystallization and melting behavior of a series of ethylene oxide-ethylene terephthalate (EOET) segmented copolymers with different soft segment molecular weight and hard segment weight content were studied by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and polarized microscope. The crystallizability of both the hard and the soft segments became worse than that of the corresponding homopolymers due to the interactions of the different segments. The crystallizability of the soft segments is mainly determined by the soft segment molecular weight, but is affected greatly by the content and the crystallinity of the hard segments. Conversely, the soft segment length and content also have a great effect on the crystallization of the hard segments. However, the melting points of the hard segments are determined by the average hard segment length. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 2918–2927, 1999     

Crystallization and melting behavior of the soft and hard segments in poly(ester-ether)s. II. Ethylene oxide-butylene terephthalate segmented copolymers

The crystallization behavior of a series of ethylene oxide-butylene terephthalate (EOBT) segmented copolymers with different soft segment molecular weight and hard segment weight content were examined by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and polarized microscope. Combined with the comparison with the crystallization behavior of ethylene oxide-ethylene terephthalate (EOET) segmented copolymers, it can be concluded that the crystallizability of both the soft segments and the hard segments in poly(ester-ether) segmented copolymers is much worse than those of the corresponding homopolymers due to the interactions between the soft and the hard segments. The crystallizability of the soft segments is mainly determined by the soft segment molecular weight, but is weakened by the hard segments. On the other hand, the soft segments have complicated influences on the crystallization of the hard segments. The melting temperatures of the hard segments change monotonically with the average hard segment length, but the corresponding melting enthalpies will reach a maximum at an intermediate soft segment molecular weight. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of hydrophilic thermotropic block copolyetheresters

The block copolyetheresters with a hard segment of poly (hexamethylene p,p′-bibenzoate) and a soft segment of poly (ethylene oxide) were prepared by melt polycondensation of dimethyl-p,p′-bibenzoate, 1,6-hexanediol, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) with molecular weights of 400, 1000, 2000, or 4000. These block copolyetheresters were characterized by intrinsic viscosity, GPC, FT-IR, ¹H-NMR, and water absorption. The thermotropic liquid crystalline properties were investigated by DSC, polarized microscope, and x-ray diffraction. The block copolyetheresters exhibit smectic liquid crystallinity due to the polyester segment. The transitions are dependent on the molar content and the molecular weight of PEG used. The block copolyetheresters show high water absorption due to the hydrophilic nature of the poly (ethylene oxide) segment. The water absorption increases with increasing PEG content. As the molecular weight of PEG increases, the water absorption increases significantly. The results indicate that the water absorption of the poly (ethylene oxide) segment in the block copolymers is affected by the presence of polyester segments. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
