摘要

Thermoplastic polycarbonate polyurethanes (PCUs) with symmetric CEs

i.e.

4-butanediol and ethanediol demonstrate good phasing and tensile strength. PCUs with asymmetric CE

aminoethanol demonstrate less phasing but the bidentate H-bonding compensate for the asymmetry. At large strains

the PCU with MEA showed morphology of higher orientation.

Abstract

Thermoplastic polycarbonate polyurethanes (PCUs) are multiblock copolymers that have been applied for medical devices for long time. Aliphatic diols are common chain extenders (CE) involved in the composition of the hard segments of PCU. However

limited knowledge was discovered about how the chemical structure of CE affects the hydrogen bonding organization within PCUs and their mechanical properties. To investigate this problem

a group of PCUs were synthesized respectively by extending the polymer chain with 1

4-butanediol (BDO)

aminoethanol (MEA)

ethanediol (EO) as three kinds of chain extenders. Tiny differences in the CE chemical structure results in remarkable variations in phase separation

condensed morphologies

thermal and mechanical properties

which are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer

atomic force microscopy

small-angle X-ray scattering

differential scanning calorimetry

and tensile tests. The microstructural evolution during unilateral deformation and the different mechanism induced by the different CEs was probed and unveil by

in situ

wide- and small-angle X-ray diffraction. Symmetry of CE can improve the organization of the hydrogen bonding. The coherence strength of the urethane/urea group also plays a key role by comparing the two PCUs with ethanediol and aminoethanol.
