Abstract
- Ionic polyurethane (IPU) was synthesized as shape memory materials. Poly (tetramethylene ether) glycol with 2000g/mol number average molecular weight were used as soft segment, 4,4-methylenebis (phenyl isocyanate), and 1,2-dihydroxy-3-propanesulfonic acid salt were used to compose the segment of SMP materials. The structure and properties of these IPU films were characterized by Fourier Transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, Thermal gravimetric analysis and Differential scanning calorimeter. The results showed that the glass transition temperature of the IPU increased with the increase of hard segment content. The physical properties in terms of swelling property, water absorption and ion-exchange capacity increased with the improving of sulfonic group content in IPU. The shape memory property of IPU exhibited that the shape fixity ratio and recovery rate improved remarkably with the increase of hard segment content.
