Structure‐property relationship in polyurethane elastomers containing starch as a crosslinker

Abstract: Polyurethane elastomers were synthesized using polypropylene glycol (PPG 2000) as the polyol and starch as the multifunctional crosslinker in varying concentrations. Thermal and mechanical properties were measured by DSC, DMA and tensile tests. The morphology was examined by SEM. The swelling behavior of the polyurethanes in various solvents was investigated and the solubility parameter was determined. All these properties were compared with those of polyurethanes containing 1,1,1 ‐trimethylol propane (TMP) as… Show more

“…16 Biodegradable PUs containing starch have been synthesized and characterized in our laboratory. 17 The sorption kinetics of various PUs has also been studied by us in the past. 18 As a further development, we synthesized biodegradable PUs using a series of carbohydrate like glucose (monosachharide), sucrose (disachharide), and starch (polysachharide) as crosslinkers by varying the NCO : OH and diol : triol ratios.…”

“…Se han realizado modificaciones en la estructura de los segmentos de los poliuretanos para mejorar la degradación. Se ha evaluado la incorporación de componentes naturales a la matriz de poliuretano tales como colágeno, elastina entre otros para la obtención de biomateriales Estas investigaciones se han centrado principalmente en la comprensión de los efectos de los cambios estructurales en las propiedades físicas, sin embargo, el efecto sobre la degradación invitro de los poliuretanos ha sido poco investigado [4][5][6][7][8] .…”
