Three prepolymers of 1,6-bis(hydroxyethyloxycarbonylamino) hexane (BHCH), i.e. PrePBHCHs, were prepared through the self-transurethane polycondensation of BHCH. A poly(butylene adipate) prepolymer (PrePBA) with terminal HO-- groups was prepared and used as a polyester glycol. A series of TPEURs were prepared by the co-polycondensation of the PrePBHCHs with PrePBA at 170 ℃under a reduced pressure of 399 Pa. The TPEURs were characterized by gel permeation chromatography, FTIR, 1H-NMR, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and tensile test. The TPEURs exhibited Mn up to 23300 g/mol, Mw up to 51100 g/mol, Tg ranging from -33.8 ℃ to -3.1 ℃, Tm from 94.3 ℃ to 111.9 ℃, initial decomposition temperature over 274.7℃, tensile strength up to18.8 MPa with a strain at break of 450.0%, and resilience up to 77.5%. TPU elastomers with good crystallization and mechanical properties were obtained through a non-isocyanate route.展开更多

The structures, solubilities and thermal properties of obtained polymers were investigated in detail. All of the resulting polymers were characterized by FTIR and IH-NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. All of the resulting polymers exhibited excellent solubility in common organic solvents, such as pyridine, tetrahydrofuran and m-cresol, as well as in polar organic solvents, such as N-methyl-2- pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide. The modified polymers were obtained in quantitative yields with inherent viscosities between 0.47 and 0.67 dl·g^-1 Experimental results indicated that all the polymers had glass transition temperature between 198 ℃ and 262 ℃, the decomposition temperature at 10% weight loss between 398 ℃ and 531 ℃ under nitrogen.展开更多
