Synthesis of Sucrose-HDI Cooligomers: New Polyols for Novel Polyurethane Networks.

ABSTRACT: Sucrose-1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) cooligomers were synthesized and used as new polyols for poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-based polyurethanes. The polyaddition reaction of sucrose and HDI was monitored by MALDI-TOF MS. It was found that by selecting appropriate reaction conditions, mostly linear oligomer chains containing 16 sucrose units could be obtained. For the synthesis of polyurethane networks, prepolymers were prepared by the reaction of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL, 10 kg/mol) with HDI or 4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and were reacted with sucrose-HDI cooligomers. The so-obtained sucrose-containing polyurethanes were characterized by means of attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FT IR), swelling, mechanical (uniaxial tensile tests) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

Project description:In this paper the preparation and detailed characterization of designed polyurethanes (SPURs) are reported for potential biological, biomedical and/or pharmaceutical applications. Importantly, in order to fulfill these goals all reactants and solvents used were selected according to the proposal of EUR-8 Pharmacopoeia. For the synthesis, a novel strategy was introduced and elaborated. A series of SPUR samples was prepared from poly(ε-caprolactone)-diol, 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate and sucrose as a chain extender/crosslinking agent to obtain sucrose containing polyurethanes. In addition, the mol ratios of the sucrose were varied within an order of magnitude. The prepolymers and the products of the syntheses were investigated by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and infrared spectroscopy (IR), respectively. It was found that the reactivity of the eight free hydroxyl groups of sucrose are different, and after curing the SPUR samples at 60 °C no free isocyanate groups can be observed. Furthermore, swelling experiments performed with various solvents of different polarities revealed that the highest degree of swelling took place in dimethyl-sulfoxide. However, low degrees of swelling were recognized in water and hexane. It is important to note that the gel contents were around 90% in all cases, which demonstrate that the crosslinking was almost complete. In addition, the kinetics of swelling were also evaluated and successfully modeled. The crosslink densities were calculated from the data of the swelling experiments by means of the Flory-Rehner equation. Unexpectedly, it was found that the crosslink density decreased with the increasing sucrose content also in line with the results obtained by relaxation modulus experiments and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The Tg and Tm of SPUR samples, determined from DSC and DMA measurements, were around -57 °C and 27 °C, respectively. According to the mechanical tests the SPUR samples showed high elongation at break values, i.e., high flexibilities. Furthermore, the stress-strain curves were also modeled and discussed.

Project description:The hydrophilic extractives isolated from black alder (Alnus glutinosa) bark through hot water extraction were characterized as novel renewable macromonomers capable of forming polyurethane (PU) networks based on a commercial polyisocyanate, with partial or complete replacement of petroleum-derived polyol polyether. The bark-sourced bio-polyol mainly consists of the xyloside form of the diarylheptanoid oregonin, along with oligomeric flavonoids and carbohydrates, resulting in a total OH group content of 15.1 mmol·g-1 and a molecular weight (Mn) of approximately 750 g∙mol-1. The 31P NMR data confirmed a similar proportion of aliphatic OH and phenolic groups. Three-component PU compositions were prepared using polyethylene glycol (Mn = 400 g∙mol-1), bio-polyol (up to 50%), and polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate, which were pre-polymerized in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution with tin organic and tertiary amine catalysts. The resulting mixture was cast and subjected to thermal post-curing. Calculation and experimental data confirmed the crosslinking activity of the bark-sourced bio-polyol in PU, leading to an increase in glass transition temperature (Tg), a decrease in sol fraction yield upon leaching of cured PU networks in THF, a significant increase in Young's modulus and tensile strength. The macromonomers derived from bark promoted char formation under high temperature and oxidative stress conditions, limiting heat release during macromolecular network degradation compared to bio-polyol-free PU. It was observed that amine catalysts, which are active in urethane formation with phenolic groups, promoted the formation of PU with higher Tg and modulus at tensile but with less limitation of heat liberation during PU macromolecular structure degradation. The high functionality of the bark-derived bio-polyol, along with the equal proportion of phenolic and aliphatic OH groups, allows for further optimization of PU characteristics using three variables: increasing the substitution extent of commercial polyethers, decreasing the NCO/OH ratio, and selecting the type of catalyst used.
