Green thermoplastic poly(ether-urethane)s – synthesis, chemical structure and selected properties investigation

This work aimed to characterize the effect of the monomers chemical structure on the selected properties of the green thermoplastic poly(ether-urethane)s. During synthesis two types of polyether biopolyols, 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate and bio-based 1,3-propanediol were employed. Materials were synthesized with the use of two step method and two different prepolymers, which were mixed together in equimolar quantities. Obtained materials were characterized by spectroscopic method, size exclusion chromatography, thermal, static mechanical and melt flow index tests. It was confirmed that the prepolymers mixture has an effect on the thermal stability and selected properties of synthesized green thermoplastic poly(ether-urethane)s.
