Various types of hydrogen bonds exist in polyether polyurethane, polyurethane-urea and polyurea (PUA) and can cause microphase separation. The morphology, properties and applications of polyether PUA are determined by the microphase separation. All kinds of hydrogen bonds make it difficult to assignments of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) peaks of ether linkage, amine and carbonyl group. This affects the calculation of the hydrogen bonding degree of the hard segments for estimating the degree of microphase separation. This paper summarized hydrogen bonding structures between proton donors and proton acceptors. By analyzing the influence of electronic effect, steric effect, various types of hydrogen bonds and the degree of order of hydrogen bonding on infrared peaks, the relationships between hydrogen bonding structures and infrared peaks are established. Lay the theoretical foundation for evaluating the degree of microphase separation by FTIR method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
