Abstract
- Polyethylene based polyurethanes (PE-PUs) with 20% ethyl branches were synthesized through hydrogenation reaction of linear and thermoplastic hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene based polyurethanes (HTPB-PUs), which has not been explored widely. Linear and thermoplastic HTPB-PUs with M<subscript>w</subscript> ranged from 130~280 kg/mol were synthesized by microwave-assisted reaction. More importantly, we systematically researched a series of reaction conditions to ensure the degree of hydrogenation meanwhile slow down the extent of degradation reaction of urethane bond. In addition, structure and thermal performance of PE-PUs have been investigated in the present work by NMR, FT-IR, DSC and TGA. The M<subscript>w</subscript> of PE-PUs ranging from 120~207 kg/mol were carried out with a high temperature GPC. Moreover, the degree of crystalline of PE-PUs with 20% ethyl branches at the range of 10% to 33% were further explored by X-ray diffraction, which in turn certify that the PE-PUs possess certain strength but lower than polyethylene with no branches.
