Popis: | Partly bio-based segmented thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) formulations were developed to fulfill the requirements of the reactive rotational molding process. They were obtained by one-shot bulk polymerization between an aliphatic diisocyanate (1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate), a polyether polyol as macrodiol (polyethylene glycol) and a bio- based corn-derived 1,3-propanediol as chain extender (CE), in presence of a catalyst, at an initial temperature of 45°C. Equivalent TPU formulations with classical petroleum-based 1,3-propanediol were also prepared for a purpose of compar- ison. TPU with different soft to hard segment (SS/HS) ratios were synthesized by varying the macrodiol and CE concentra- tions in the formulations. For each formulation, the evolution of the reaction temperature as a function of time was monitored and the kinetics of polymerization was studied by Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection mode (FTIR-ATR). The morphology, thermal properties, solubility in different solvents and tensile properties of the final products were analyzed. All synthesized polyurethanes are 100% linear polymers and the extent of microphase separation, as well as the thermal and mechanical properties highly depends on the HS content, and glass transition temper- ature and Young modulus can be tuned by adjustment of the SS/HS ratio. All results indicate that petrochemical CE can be replaced by its recently available corn-derived homologue, without sacrificing any use properties of the final polyurethanes. |
