In this study, several waterborne polyurethane (WPU) dispersions have been successfully prepared by a prepolymer process from 1,5-pentamethylene diisocyanate poly(polyether) with different NCO/OH ratios and 1,6-hexanediol (HDO)/dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA) molar ratios. The Fourier transfonn infrared (FTIR) spectra, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffiraction, and a mechanical tensile test were used to investigate the structures, thermal stability, phase separation, crystallinity, mechanical properties, and adhesive performance of the WPU dispersions. The FTIR results indicate that the degree of hydrogen bonding and the numbers of urea groups increase as the NCO/OH ratio and HDO/DMPA molar ratio increase. Furthermore, the phase separation increases and the thermal stability decreases as the NCO/OH ratio increases or the HDO/DMPA molar ratio decreases. Finally, WPU3.0-2.4 (NCO/OH = 3, HDO/DMPA = 2.4) exhibits a maximum tensile strength and shear strength, pointing to its possible use as an adhesive. These results could provide a very valuable reference for industrial applications of WPU.展开更多
In this work, a series of high performance bio-based polyurethanes（bio-PUs） were synthesized from polylactide（PLA）-based diols, different diisocyanates（TDI, MDI, HDI, IPDI） and chain extender 1,4-butanediol, in ...In this work, a series of high performance bio-based polyurethanes（bio-PUs） were synthesized from polylactide（PLA）-based diols, different diisocyanates（TDI, MDI, HDI, IPDI） and chain extender 1,4-butanediol, in which different soft and hard segments are used to adjust their transition temperatures and mechanical properties. Poly（lactide-co-caprolactone）copolymer diols（co-PLAols） instead of PLA diols as the soft segment improved the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the synthesized bio-PUs. Among them, MDI-based bio-PUs have the highest T_g（43.8 °C）, tensile strength（23.5 MPa） and modulus（380.8 MPa）, while HDI-based bio-PUs have the lowest T_g（21.4 °C） and highest elongation at break（580%）. Especially, the bio-PUs synthesized from co-PLAols and MDI demonstrate better mechanical properties,closed to petroleum-based commodities. Furthermore, the obtained bio-PUs display good shape memory properties at body temperature and cytocompatibility. Therefore, these bio-PUs are promising for applications in biomedical fields.展开更多

It is charming to transform CO_2 to desirable, economical chemicals and materials. Poly（propylene carbonate）（PPC） is an emerging CO_2-based material. Herein, we report the design, synthesis and characterization of the reactive hot melt polyurethane adhesive（RHMPA） based on PPC polyol. The resultant RHMPAs exhibit good adhesion properties to multiple substrates including plastics（PC, PMMA, ABS） and metals（aluminium, steel）, which is comparable to or even better than conventional RHMPAs prepared from petro-based polyol. Furthermore, the PPC-based RHMPAs have tunable mechanical properties, and are thermally stable in the typical working range of bonding process（up to 270 °C）. The study is expected to expand the applications of PPC and provide a new type of CO_2-based renewable and eco-friendly materials.展开更多
