Composition effects of thermoplastic segmented polyurethanes on their nanostructuring kinetics with or without preshear

In this work, the structuring mechanism from the molten state of various thermoplastic polyurethanes was analyzed with respect to their composition [polyether or polyester soft segments (SSs), aromatic or aliphatic hard segments (HSs)]. As a preliminary study, the molar mass evolution of the materials with the temperature was quantified. Then, based on rheological experiments and in situ rheo‐small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) measurements, the structuring was examined at different temperatures and, particularly, the effect of a preshear treatment was analyzed. The temperature effect can be accounted by an Arrhenius‐like law with an activation energy depending mainly on the HS nature. Moreover, the shear induced structuring phenomenon is highlighted for all the studied thermoplastic segmented polyurethanes. Nevertheless, for the studied range of shear treatments, the SAXS analyses did not reveal any specific orientation. Finally, arguments based on the modification of the quench depth (ΔT = T_ODT ? T) by the shear are given to explain the shear induced structuring phenomenon. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys, 2011

Segmented polyurethanes with 4,4′-bis-(6-hydroxyhexoxy) biphenyl as chain extender. I. Synthesis and characterization of 2,4-tdi-polyurethanes

Polyurethanes composed of 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI), poly (butylene adipate) diols (PBA) of different molecular weights, and 4,4′-bis-(6-hydroxyhexoxy) biphenyl (BHHBP) were prepared by a two-step solution polymerization process. The polyurethanes were char-acterized by elemental analysis, NMR, and SEC. The thermal properties were investigated by DSC, DMA, and optical polarizing microscopy. Dependent on the molecular weight of the PBA, a shift in the glass transition temperature T_g of the polyurethanes has been observed by DSC and DMA. Polyurethanes based on poly (butylene adipate)s of M_n ～ 2000 exhibited a T_g nearly independent on the hard-segment content up to 50% LC hard segments, indicating the existence of mainly phase separated soft and hard segments. By shortening the PBA chain length up to 1,000 and further to 600, the T_g of the polyester soft-segment phase increases with growing hard-segment content, a consequence of enhanced interaction between the hard and soft segments. This tendency is observed to the greatest extent at polyurethanes with the shortest, polyester diol and can be interpreted as a partial miscibility or compatibility of hard and soft segments. Although in polyurethanes with PBA 2000 the mesophase can be proven at a hard-segment content of ～ 40%, its appearance in polyure-thances prepared with PBA 1000 or PBA 600 requires a hard-segment content > 60%. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Structure-property relationships in polycaprolactone-polyurethanes

The structure-property relationships of polycaprolactone-based segmented polyurethanes were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD), dynamic mechanical, and stress-strain testing. The materials studied varied in hard-segment type [4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate/butanediol (MDI/BD) or 4,4′-dicyclohexyl methane diisocyanate/butanediol (H₁₂MDI/BD)], soft-segment molecular weight (830 or 2000 MW polycaprolactone), hard-segment content (23–77% by weight), and thermal history. The materials with aromatic (MDI/BD) hard segments had semicrystalline hard-segment domains, while the materials with aliphatic (H₁₂MDI/BD) hard segment had mostly amorphous domains. Materials with the shorter polycaprolactone soft segment (830 MW) exhibited thermal and mechanical behavior which indicated a considerable degree of hard- and soft-segment compatibility. The materials which contained a 2000-MW polycaprolactone soft segment exhibited better-defined microphase separation. SAXS was used to characterize the microphase structure of each system. The effects of hard-segment content and soft-segment molecular weight were similar for the aromatic (MDI) and aliphatic (H₁₂MDI) hard-segment-based block copolymers. Changing the hard segment from aromatic to aliphatic gave materials with larger interfacial area and slightly higher tensile strength. A range of morphologies between isolated hard domains in a rubbery matrix and isolated rubbery domains in a hard matrix was observed.

Morphology of polyurethanes with triol monomer crosslinked on hard segments

Polyester‐based polyurethanes containing ≈60 wt % of polyester were synthesized from low molecular weight polyester (M_n ≈2000) and 4,4′‐methylene bis(phenyl isocyanate) (MDI), with butanediol as a chain extender and glycerol as a crosslinker. The triol crosslinker was used in substitution for the 1,4‐butanediol chain extender; thus, the crosslinker was chemical bonded to the hard segments of polyurethane. The morphologies of these polyurethanes were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), TMA (thermal mechanical analysis), and FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy). Owing to the highly steric hindrance, the presence of triol crosslinker in the hard segments resulted in a decrease in the aggregation of hard segments through hydrogen bonding. The experimental results revealed that the degree of phase segregation of soft and hard segments decreased with increasing the triol crosslinker content in the hard segments. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Sorption and diffusion of ethanol vapor in polybutadiene/acrylonitrile, polybutadiene/styrene and polybutadiene based polyurethanes

The sorption and diffusion behavior of ethanol vapor in series of polyolefine based polyurethanes (PU) made from hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene/acrylonitrile (HTBN), hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene/styrene (HTBS) and hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) were investigated by using the quartz-spring, DSC, FTIR and AFM. The equilibrium absorption reduced with increasing content of hard segments for all the three types of PUs. The values of the maximum absorption were in the order of HTBN > HTBS > HTPB based PU and related to their composition. The non-Fickian diffusion was confirmed and the sorption was discovered mainly in the hard segments. The HTBN based PU revealed different sorption and diffusion behavior from the other two, which was resulted from its hydrogen bonding not only between ethanol and hard segments but also soft segments. The morphologies of PUs before and after ethanol absorption were also compared. The HTBN based PU showed the most evident phase re-congregation after ethanol absorption.     

Study on the Gas Permeability of Nickel(II) Polyurethane Complexes

Ionic polyurethanes (PUs) were prepared from hydroxyl‐terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and 4,4′‐dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate (H₁₂MDI) by a two‐stage method. The ionic group was introduced by adding 4,8‐diazaundecanediamide (L‐2,3,2) as the chain extender of which the tertiary amines and carbonyl groups were complexed with nickel ions. It was found that the binding of hard segments and the flexibility of soft segments had subtle effects on the gas permeability. The effects of hard segment content and the amount of nickel ion on the gas permeability and morphological properties were investigated. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was utilized to identify the segregation between hard and soft segments and structure change, which affect the transport properties. The hydrogen bonding index (HBI), frequency difference, and shift as a measure of the phase segregation and the average strength of the interpolymer hydrogen bonds were utilized to study the intermolecular interaction and transport property of the prepared PUs. The oxygen and nitrogen permeabilities of membranes were determined by using gas permeability analyzer. The results of FTIR, differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis measurements explain the complexation and, hence, the gas permeability.     

A New Molecular Theory of Non‐Linear Viscoelasticity for Vitrifiable (or Crystallizable) Thermoplastic Polyurethane Elastomers

The molecular theory of non‐linear viscoelasticity for vitrifiable thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (VTPUE) is a refinement and extension of viscoelastic theory of thermoplastic elastomers and polyurethanes to glassy transition, a structural model and a mechanism of vitrification for glassy polymers were proposed. Five kinds of constituent chains with Nagai chain constraint consisting of soft‐domains, hard‐domains, and entanglements are used as the elementary structural and statistical ensemble units for the correlation of molecular and phase‐domain structures to the static and dynamic mechanical behaviors. So the influences of non‐Gaussian in character, the phase separation of domain, the network topology of structure, the affined deformation of constituent chains, and the thermal history are all taken into account in the constituent chains of the theory. Free energies of deformation for the VTPUE segment copolymer were calculated by the statistical mechanics with the probability distribution functions of the sizes for the five kinds of constituent chains. Then the static constitutive equations and modulus of four types of deformation and the dynamic shear viscosity, modulus and loss tangent of VTPUE are derived from the proposed theory. The theory is successful in relating the molecular chain parameters C₁₀₀, C₀₂₀, and C₂₀₀ to the constitutive equations and modulus under large deformations and the micro‐domain structure to the complex shear viscosity and modulus and the loss tangent. The dynamic shear modulus and loss tangent of VTPUE are related to the domain structures through the fraction of hard segments (W_h), the molecular weight of soft segment (M_ns), and the growth dimensional parameters of hard and soft domains (β). Two series of linear VTPUE copolymers (ES and ET) with different fractions(W_h) of hard segments and molecular weight (M_ns) of soft segments were prepared. Their static and dynamic mechanical properties were studied by uni‐axial extension and dynamic analysis tests. Then the constitutive equation at uni‐axial extension and the expressions of shear modulus and loss tangent are verified by these experimental data, and excellent agreement between the theory and experiments is achieved. It is shown, that the proposed theory can predict the viscoelastic behavior of vitrifiable thermoplastic polyurethanes.     

Model structures of thermoplastic polyesters having regularly alternated aromatic and fluorinated segments

Linear segmented polyesters containing soft perfluoropolyether (PFPE) and hard aromatic segments are obtained by an interfacial polycondensation reaction of an acyl chloride-ended fluorinated prepolymer with various aromatic diphenols in the presence of phase transfer catalysts (PTC) as accelerators. Experimental conditions for reaching high molecular weights are discussed. The calorimetric analysis (DSC) of all the polyesters synthesized shows a typical biphasic morphology, where a very low T_g (< −110°C) corresponding to the segregated PFPE moiety, is always accompanied by another T_g or a higher melting temperature, depending on the nature of the hard phase. Dynamic-mechanical analysis (DMA) has been carried out confirming the DSC results and suggesting diversified mechanical behaviors at the various temperatures in line with the amorphous or semicrystalline nature of the polymer. Chemical resistance was finally tested by dipping in several solvents and chemicals. The new polyesters show high contact angles, a moderate swelling in many organic solvents and excellent stability in aggressive hydrolytic environments. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

聚乙二醇型聚氨酯软硬段对其相变储热性能的影响

以不同分子量的聚乙二醇(PEG)为软段,MDI-BDO为硬段,采用两步法溶液聚合合成一种具有固-固相变储热性能的聚氨酯材料.通过DSC,WAXD等测试手段对体系的软硬段结晶性,微相分离,相变可逆性及循环热稳定性进行研究,结果表明,聚氨酯中硬段的存在对软段结晶有着很大的影响,当软段分子量达到2000或以上时,软段才具有较大的结晶度和熔融相变焓,且硬段含量必须高于一定值才能形成较为完善的物理交联网络以保证材料在发生相变时维持固体状态.同时符合这两个条件的试样能具有较好的固-固相变储热性能.就软段PEG含量及分子量对材料储热性能的影响进行了研究,通过调节软段含量与分子量得到一系列具有不同相变焓和相变温度的聚氨酯固-固相变储热材料.经测试还发现,该材料具备很好的相变可逆性和循环热稳定性,是一类很有开发前景的相变储热材料.     

Oxygen permeability in thermoplastic polyurethanes

The thermal and oxygen transport properties of a series of thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) based on 4,4′‐methylene diisocyanate (MDI) and 1,4‐butanediol (BD) as hard segments, and poly(tetramethylene glycol) (PTMG) or poly(butylene adipate) (PA) as soft segments, are studied. Oxygen permeabilities (P) of both polyester‐based and polyether‐based TPUs increase with decreasing hard segment fractions. Oxygen solubility (S) and diffusivity (D) can be derived from permeation curves. S correlates with the amount of excess free volume as determined by the difference between glass‐transition and testing temperatures (i.e., the degree of super cooling) and decreases with the increased T_g in polyester‐based TPUs. The intensity of low temperature gamma transition reflects the activation energy for D; the higher the intensity is, the lower D is annealed TPU samples exhibited higher oxygen permeabilities as well as lower storage moduli at room temperature, despite modest increases in overall crystallinity. Dedensification of the soft segment phase during annealing/crystalline phase growth is the most likely explanation for loss of mechanical and barrier properties after annealing as partially confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Interaction of segmented polyurethanes and polyurethane-ureas with water

Sorption of water vapor by oligomeric homopolymers and triblock copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, and by polyurethanes and polyurethane - ureas derived from them is discussed. While the sorption isotherms (plots of ψ₁ vs a₁, where ψ is he volume fraction of sorbed water and a₁ is activity) for most polymers investigated here are smooth and convex towards the abscissa, those found with polyurethane-ureas containing long hard blocks have a “toe” at low activities. The plots of a₁/ψ₁ vs a₁ are shown to facilitate the analysis of data and the interpretation in terms of the D'Arcy-Watt theory. Smooth isotherms are fitted by a simple equation with two parameters. The first is related to the limiting value, χ₀, (at ψ₁ → 0) of the χ parameter characterizing the polymer-water interaction. The dependences of χ₀ on the polymer composition (content of hard segments or oxyethylene units) can provide information on the interaction between hard and soft segments. The second parameter is used in the computation of parameters characterizing the clustering tendency of water molecules. This tendency depends mainly on the content of oxypropylene units but is also raised by urethane or urea groups, though not so much as by oxypropylene groups.     

Revisiting thermoplastic polyurethane,from composition to morphology and properties

Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) are among the most versatile engineering polymers. The presence of hard and soft segments on their backbone and specific hydrogen bond interactions between the hard segments, provide TPUs with outstanding engineering properties while rendering them as very complex systems to study. Knowledge of morphology–property relationship is essential for TPUs since their thermal and mechanical behavior are directly dictated by their complicated morphology. In this research, TPU morphological features related to the hard segment content (HSC) were explored in tandem with system macroscopic properties. It was observed that TPUs display multiscale phase separated morphology with specific morphological features dependent on the HSC. At a certain critical HSC, an interconnected network of hard segments was formed which resulted in significant changes in TPU properties. This was explained in analogy with percolation phenomena in filler reinforced systems and considering the hard segments as reinforcing agent. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Segmented polyurethanes with 4,4′-bis-(6-hydroxyhexoxy)biphenyl as chain extender. Part 2. Synthesis and properties of MDI-polyurethanes in comparison with 2,4-TDI-polyurethanes

Linear segmented polyurethanes based on poly(butylene adipate)s (PBA) of different molecular weight (M_n 2000, 1000, and 600), 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and the mesogenic diol 4,4′-bis-(6-hydroxyhexoxy)biphenyl (BHHBP) as well as the unsegmented polyurethane consisting of MDI/BHHBP units have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹³C-NMR and SEC. The thermal behavior and the morphology were studied by DSC, polarizing microscopy, and DMA. The properties of the MDI-polyurethanes were discussed in relation to the BHHBP chain extended 2,4-TDI-polyurethanes and common 1,4-butanediol chain-extended MDI products. MDI polyurethanes based on PBA (M_n 2000) exhibit a glass transition temperature T_g of about −40°C independent of the hard segment content up to ∼50% hard segments. At higher hard segment contents increasing T_gs were observed. Polyurethanes, based on the shorter polyester soft segments PBA (M_n 1000 or 600), reveal an increase in the glass transition temperatures with growing hard segment content. The thermal transitions caused by melting of the MDI/BHHBP hard segment domains are found at 50 K higher temperatures in comparison with the analogous TDI products with mesogenic BHHBP/TDI hard segments. Shortening of the PBA chain length causes a shift of the thermal transitions to lower temperatures. Polarizing microscopy experiments indicate that liquid crystalline behavior is influenced by both the content of mesogenic hard segments and the chain length of the polyester. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Characterization of Chain Motion and Phase Structure of Aromatic Waterborne Polyurethane Film Using Intrinsic Fluorescence Spectra

The phase structure and macromolecular chain motion of aromatic waterborne polyurethane film were examined by the fluorescence technique. Excimer emission of the phenyls appears at 436 and 468 nm and is temperature dependent, suggesting that the hard segments in the intermediate phase can be locally oriented. Binding energy of the excimer structure determined by the intrinsic fluorescence spectra is 16 kJ/mol. The intrinsic fluorescence technique can supply more information than the DSC method on segment relaxations, including α-relaxation for the hard or soft segments, β-relaxation of small molecular units, crystallization of the soft segments, γ-relaxation of the classical consecutive –CH₂– units, and even phase separation degree.     

Polyurethanes containing sulfur. I. New thermoplastic polyurethanes with benzophenone unit in their structure

New thermoplastic nonsegmented thiopolyurethanes were obtained from the low-melting aliphatic–aromatic thiodiols 4,4′-bis(2-hydroxyethylthiomethyl)benzophenone (BHEB), 4,4′-bis(3-hydroxypropylthiomethyl)benzophenone (BHPB), and 4,4′-bis(6-hydroxyhexylthiomethyl)benzenophenone(BHHB) as well as hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), both by melt and solution polymerization with dibutyltin dilaurate as the catalyst. The effect of various solvents on molecular-weight values was examined. The polymers with the highest reduced viscosities (0.63–0.88 dL/g) were obtained when the polymerization was carried out in a solution of tetrachloroethane, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and N,N-dimethylacetamide or N,N-dimethylformamide for BHEB-, BHPB-, and BHHB-derived polyurethanes, respectively. These polymers with a partially crystalline structure showed glass-transition temperatures (T_g) in the range of −1 to 39 °C, melting temperatures (T_m) in the range of 107 to 124 °C, and thermal stabilities up to 230 to 240 °C. The BHEB-derived polyurethane is a low-elasticity material with high tensile strength (ca. 50 MPa), whereas the BHPB- and BHHB-derived polyurethanes are more elastic, showing yield stress at approximately 16 MPa. We also obtained segmented polyurethanes by using BHHB, HDI, and 20 to 80 mol % poly(oxytetramethylene) glycol (PTMG) of M̄_n = 1000 as the soft segment. These are high-molecular thermoplastic elastomers that show a partially crystalline structure. Thermal properties were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. The increase in PTMG content decreases the definite T_g and increases the solubility of the polymers. These segmented polyurethanes exhibit the definite T_g (−67 to −62 °C) nearly independent of the hard-segment content up to approximately 50 wt %, indicating the existence of mainly phase-separated soft and hard segments. Shore A/D hardness and tensile properties were also determined. As the PTMG content increases, the hardness, modulus of elasticity, and tensile strength decrease, whereas elongation at break increases. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Calorimetric and Dielectric Study of the Segmented Biodegradable Poly(ester‐urethane)s Based on Bacterial Poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]

Two series of segmented poly(ester‐urethane)s were synthesized from bacterial poly[(R)‐3‐hydroxybutyrate]‐diol (PHB‐diol), as hard segments, and either poly(ε‐caprolactone)‐diol (PCL‐diol) or poly(butylene adipate)‐diol (PBA‐diol), as soft segments, using 1,6‐hexamethylene diisocyanate as a chain extender. The hard‐segment content varied from 0 to 50 wt.‐%. These materials were characterized using ¹H NMR spectroscopy and GPC. The polymers obtained were investigated calorimetrically and dielectrically. DSC showed that the T_g of either the PCL or PBA soft segments are shifted to higher temperatures with increasing PHB hard‐segment content, revealing that either the PCL or PBA are mixed with small amounts of PHB in the amorphous domains. The results also showed that the crystallization of soft or hard segments was physically constrained by the microstructure of the other crystalline phase, which results in a decrease in the degree of crystallinity of either the soft or hard segments upon increase of the other component. The dielectric spectra of poly(ester‐urethane)s, based on PCL and PHB, showed two primary relaxation processes, designated as α_S and α_H, which correspond to glass–rubber transitions of PCL soft and PHB hard segments, respectively. Whereas in the case of other poly(ester‐urethane)s, derived from PBA and PHB, only one relaxation process was observed, which broadens and shifts to higher temperature with increasing PHB hard‐segment content. It was concluded from these results that our investigated materials exhibit micro‐phase separation of the hard and soft segments in the amorphous domains.     

Effect of soft segment length on properties of fluorinated polyurethanes

The effects of soft segment length on the variations in morphology, surface composition, and hydrophilicity have been studied in fluorinated polyurethanes (FPUs) and correlated with their preliminary blood compatibility as evidenced by in vitro platelet adhesion experiments. The fluorinated polyurethanes were obtained using hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and chain extender of 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-1,4-butanediol (TF) as the hard segment as well as various soft segments—polytetramethyl oxides (PTMO) with molecular weights of 650, 1000, 1400, and 2000. The increased phase separation in hard-segment domains with lengthening soft segment was observed by FT-IR, which is believed to result in enhanced strength of hydrogen bonds and good hard-segment order arrangement. Thin-film XRD results indicate at least three lateral distances existing between adjacent hard segments in the crystallized hard segment. Their distribution depends strongly on the length of soft segment. Lengthening soft segment promotes the formation of dense arrangement of crystallized hard segments. Compared with the effect of phase separation, surface composition was found to exert a major influence on the preliminary blood compatibility of fluorinated polyurethanes. Increasing fluorine content by decreasing soft segment length promotes reduction in platelet adhesion and activation on polyurethane surfaces.
