Unsaturated Poly(ester-urethanes) with Stereochemically Dependent Thermomechanical Properties

Abstract: Polymer crystallinity is known to be dependent upon backbone stereochemistry and this concept has emerged as an effective means of altering bulk material properties. Herein, we describe a simple, step-growth polymerization to synthesize unsaturated poly(ester-urethane)s using the thiol-Michael addition reaction. The absolute control of alkene stereochemistry (0−100 % trans content) in the polymer backbone was achieved by varying the cis/trans double bond content of the monomer feedstock. In turn, the crystalli… Show more

“…DSC revealed a clear influence of cis-alkene content on thermal transitions as depicted in the thermograms in Fig. 5d-f, which is in line with reports by Buchard 39 and Dove and Becker 3,40 . In addition to small variations of glass transition temperatures (Tg), striking differences in crystalline behavior were observed.…”

“…Whilst this is a contrast to several previously reported cis/trans polymer systems, the low cyclopropane content within this system could inhibit the influence of stereochemistry. 29,30 Further increase of the trans-cyclopropane content to 25% led to a more flexible and weaker material. BD 75 Cy(trans) 25 -co-HDT possessed an average Young's modulus of 60 MPa in comparison to BD-co-HDT which was 105 MPa.…”

“…However, previous investigations report that changing the cis/trans content of linear polymers led to a control of bulk crystallinity, and hence, tensile properties could be tuned. 29,31 The lack of crystallinity in the initial cyclopropane-containing polymers demonstrates that neither stereochemistry promotes crystallisation. Therefore, we observe minimal differences in tensile properties between the cis and trans stereochemistry in this cyclopropane system.…”

“…17 The cis-olefin content in unsaturated polymers is also known to dramatically influence their optoelectric properties and solubility 18−20 as well as crystallinity and tensile properties. 21 Thus, controlling the cis-olefin content in a polymer is essential for tuning its properties.…”

“…Furthermore, the glass transition temperature ( T g ) of high cis -olefin content PNB (prepared from ROMP of endo , exo -5,6-norbornene) is 30 °C higher than that of the corresponding high trans -olefin content PNB . The cis -olefin content in unsaturated polymers is also known to dramatically influence their optoelectric properties and solubility as well as crystallinity and tensile properties . Thus, controlling the cis- olefin content in a polymer is essential for tuning its properties.…”
