The effect of the dosage of nano-SiO2 on the WPU-Si membrane and the coated RDX(cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine) particles have been studied in terms of their surface properties, mechanical properties, and thermal stability. The results showed that with the increase of Si content, the stability of the emulsion reduced gradually. The material with more Si content displayed an increased thermodynamic stability, an increased high temperature resistance, an increased tensile strength and a decreased elongation at break. With the increase of Si content, the surface tension of the material decreased, the bibulous rate reduced, and the contact angle increased gradually, so that the surface tension of the polyurethane and RDX are close to each other which could improve the performance of coating.展开更多

Compared with water-soluble acrylic resin, the phase inversion of 2K-WPU occurs at lower water content. It is indicated by TEM that 2K-WPU parti-cles show a core-shell structure, in which HDI biuret is encapsulated by hydrophilic acrylic resin. 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI biuret has larger particle size and narrower distribution index, while for 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI iso-cyanurate, the latex not only has large particle size, but also has two-peak distribution. FTIR shows that the reaction be-tween HDI biuret and acrylic resin can complete in 12h. In addition, studies on effect of composition of acrylic resin on performance of 2K-WPU show that narrowing the polar difference between water-soluble acrylic resin and HDI biuret and improving the miscibility of two components are the key to prepare the transparent and high gloss films with high crosslinking density.展开更多

The properties of Si WPU, FSiPUA and SiO2/FSiPUA were investigated by fourier transform infrared spectra（FTIR）, transmission electron microscope（TEM）, Scanning Electron Microscope（SEM） and some other analytical methods. The results revealed that FSiPUA emulsion particles possessed composite core-shell structure and FSiPUA films with suitable ratio performed better than Si WPU films in hardness, water resistance and solvent resistance. The SiO2/FSiPUA films with micro-nano dual roughness structure showed a water contact angle of 136° with good resistance to acid and alkali.展开更多

We found that BDO content significantly influenced mechanical properties, degradable performances and cyto-biocompatibility of PCL-WBPUs. Increasing the BDO content in PCL-WBPU enhanced its tensile strength and decreases strain. Enzymolysis and hydrolysis properties were also regulated by BDO content, but with different meechanisms. Cyto- biocompatibility was evaluated with ATDC5 cells. The results show that the biodegradability of PCL-WBPU is significantly determined by BDO content, which exerts a serious influence on its polymer structure, leading to resultant degradable properties.展开更多

文摘A series of nano silica/silicone modified waterborne polyurethane(WPU) have been synthesized from polytetramethylene glycol and isophorone diisocyanate, dihydroxymethyl propionic acid and triethylamine, ethylenediamine, trimethylolpropane, nano-SiO2 and the silane coupling agent KH550. The effect of the dosage of nano-SiO2 on the WPU-Si membrane and the coated RDX(cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine) particles have been studied in terms of their surface properties, mechanical properties, and thermal stability. The results showed that with the increase of Si content, the stability of the emulsion reduced gradually. The material with more Si content displayed an increased thermodynamic stability, an increased high temperature resistance, an increased tensile strength and a decreased elongation at break. With the increase of Si content, the surface tension of the material decreased, the bibulous rate reduced, and the contact angle increased gradually, so that the surface tension of the polyurethane and RDX are close to each other which could improve the performance of coating.
文摘A two-component waterborne polyurethane(2K-WPU) was prepared by mixing water-soluble acrylic resin and hexamethylene diisocyanate biuret, and then diluted for phase inversion with water. Compared with water-soluble acrylic resin, the phase inversion of 2K-WPU occurs at lower water content. It is indicated by TEM that 2K-WPU parti-cles show a core-shell structure, in which HDI biuret is encapsulated by hydrophilic acrylic resin. 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI biuret has larger particle size and narrower distribution index, while for 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI iso-cyanurate, the latex not only has large particle size, but also has two-peak distribution. FTIR shows that the reaction be-tween HDI biuret and acrylic resin can complete in 12h. In addition, studies on effect of composition of acrylic resin on performance of 2K-WPU show that narrowing the polar difference between water-soluble acrylic resin and HDI biuret and improving the miscibility of two components are the key to prepare the transparent and high gloss films with high crosslinking density.

文摘In order to prepare hydrophobic waterborne polyurethane coatings with better performances, the silicon-containing waterborne polyurethane（SiWPU） with functional chain extender hydroxyethyl acrylate（HEA） was prepared first, and then a series of silicon＆fluorine-containing polyurethane/acrylate（FSiPUA） emulsions were obtained with flourine containing acrylic monomer by seed emulsion polymerization, introducing micro-nano SiO2 into FSiPUA emulsion to make the final hybrid emulsion. The properties of Si WPU, FSiPUA and SiO2/FSiPUA were investigated by fourier transform infrared spectra（FTIR）, transmission electron microscope（TEM）, Scanning Electron Microscope（SEM） and some other analytical methods. The results revealed that FSiPUA emulsion particles possessed composite core-shell structure and FSiPUA films with suitable ratio performed better than Si WPU films in hardness, water resistance and solvent resistance. The SiO2/FSiPUA films with micro-nano dual roughness structure showed a water contact angle of 136° with good resistance to acid and alkali.

文摘Composite polymer electrolytes based on mixing soft-segment waterborne polyurethane （WPU） and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[（trifluoromethyl）sulfonyl]imide （BMImTFSI） have been prepared and characterized. The addition of BMImTFSI results in an increase of the ionic conductivity. At high BMImTFSI concentration （BMImTFSI/WPU = 3 in weight ratio）, the ionic conductivity reaches 4.27 × 10^-3 S/cm at 30 ℃. These composite polymer electrolytes exhibit good thermal and electrochemical stability, which are high enough to be applied in lithium batteries.

文摘Cellulose plays a key role in abundant organic natural materials meeting the increasing demand for green and biocompatible products.The highly crystalline nanoscale component of cellulose nanocrystals has recently attracted great attention due to the versatile performance as filler or matrix in producing functional materials.In this work,we prepared the waterborne polyurethane via a prepolymer process,and obtained cellulose and cellulose nanocrystals from waste paper via a facile acid hydrolysis process.After that,the cellulose nanocrystals were assembled into film and mixed with polyurethane to prepare flexible polyurethane/cellulose nanocrystals composite membrane with different soaking time.The correlation between the bulk structure and applied properties including thermal resistance and mechanical property was investigated by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),X-ray diffraction(XRD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),thermogravimetric analysis(TGA),differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and folding test.The structure analysis indicates that cellulose nanocrystals prepared from used paper have a quality similar to that of commercial cellulose.Meanwhile,the cellulose nanocrystals have been mixed with polyurethane uniformly.Polyurethane can significantly benefit to the thermal resistance and mechanical property of the cellulose nanocrystals film.The polyurethane/cellulose nanocrystals composite membrane present good flexibility and may hold a significantly potential application as visual and flexible material.

文摘The increasing pressure from consumers and policy makers to reduce the use of synthetic polymers,whose production contributes to the depletion of non-renewable resources and are usually non-biodegradable,has prompted the efforts to find suitable bio-based sources for the production of polymers.Vegetable oils have been a frequently spotted in this search because they are versatile,highly available and a low cost liquid biosource,which can be used in the synthesis of a wide plethora of different polymers and reactive monomers.Following the same idea of reducing the environmental stress,the traditional polyurethanes that are soluble in organic solvents have been targeted for replacement,particularly in applications such as adhesives and coatings,in which the solvent is released to the atmosphere increasing the air pollution.Instead,waterborne polyurethanes(WBPU),which are polyurethane dispersions(PUD)prepared in aqueous media,release benign water to the atmosphere during use as supported or self-standing films for different applications.In this brief review,the contributions to the development of WBPUs based on vegetable oils are discussed,focusing mainly on the contributions of the last decade.The synthesis of ionic and nonionic PUDs,their characterization and the properties of the resulting dried materials,as well as derived composite materials are considered.
文摘Castor oil-based cationic waterborne polyurethane(CWPU)was synthesized by pre-polymer process using castor oil(CO),poly(adipic acid-1,4-succinate diol)(PBA),isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI),and N-methyldiethanolamine(MDEA).The influences of the content of CO and MDEA on comprehensive performance and finished fabric properties of cationic waterborne polyurethane was investigated,especially the antibacterial properties of finished fabric.The CWPU latex particle size and its distribution decrease as the content of CO increased from 0wt%to 16.8wt%,and increases afterwards.The CWPU films show much higher thermal stability than cationic waterborne polyurethane without CO.The surface of fabrics was characterized by scanning electron microscope(SEM).The finished fabric surface is much smoother.In addition,the finished fabric with CWPU emulsion has better antibacterial property against E.coli and S.aureus.When MDEA content is 8%,the antibacterial rates of the two kinds of bacteria are 77.3%and 82.2%,respectively.

文摘Waterborne polyurethane （ WBPU ） with controlled biodegradability and biocompatibility was synthesized by using poly （ε-caprolactone） （ PCL ） as the polyglycol, isophorone diisocyanate （IPDI） as the isocyanate, 2 acid （DMPA） as the chain extender and 1, 4-butanediol （BDO） as the hard-segment regulating agent. We found that BDO content significantly influenced mechanical properties, degradable performances and cyto-biocompatibility of PCL-WBPUs. Increasing the BDO content in PCL-WBPU enhanced its tensile strength and decreases strain. Enzymolysis and hydrolysis properties were also regulated by BDO content, but with different meechanisms. Cyto- biocompatibility was evaluated with ATDC5 cells. The results show that the biodegradability of PCL-WBPU is significantly determined by BDO content, which exerts a serious influence on its polymer structure, leading to resultant degradable properties.

文摘Incorporation of photochromic compounds to the polymer through chemical bonding will result in an enhancement of photoactivity and stabilization of optical properties.Here,spiropyran(SP)was introduced into polyurethane(PU)through semi-continuous emulsion copolymerization to get waterborne polyurethane dispersion(SPU).Studies on photochromic properties by UV-vis technique demonstrated the absorption intensity increased with the increasing of SP concentration and the colorless film turned to purple under UV irradiation.The kinetics for ring-opening and ring-closing reaction against SP were both first order,but the rate constants decreased with the increasing of SP concentration.The prepared SPU films showed reasonable photostability and photoreversibility according to the convenient test methods under UV-vis irradiation.Temperature dependence studies demonstrated that the photobleaching rate increased at higher temperatures with the same SP concentration.The chemical combination between SP and isocyanate(NCO)end group of polyurethane was confirmed through swelling experiments.Morphology studies were conducted by scanning electron microscope(SEM)micrographs and showed good compatibility between SP and PU.
