FTIR spectroscopic characterization of polyurethane-urea model hard segments (PUUMHS) based on three diamine chain extenders.
Six polyurethane-urea model hard segments (PUUMHS) were prepared by a solution method based, respectively, on two isocyanates: 4,4'-methylene-diphenyl-diisocyanate (MDI), 4,4'-methylene-dicyclohexyl diisocyanate (HMDI) and three amine chain extenders: ethylene diamine (EDA), methylene-bis-ortho-chloroaniline (MOCA), 2,4-diamino-3,5-dimethylsuphylchlorobenzene (DDSCB). FTIR was used to study their spectroscopic characterization. The main FTIR bands of the six samples were assigned and compared. It was found that most of N-H and C=O are H-bonded in these PUUMHS. However, the N-H in three MDI based PUUMHS is all in the stronger H-bond state than that in their corresponding HMDI based while the C=O in three HMDI based PUUMHS is all in the stronger H-bond state than that in their corresponding MDI based, respectively. In addition, the order of the H-bond strength in HMDI based PUUMHS is MOCA, DDSCB and EDA whether according to nuN-H or nuC=O band wavenumbers, which is, however, different from that in MDI based PUUMHS. Moreover, the HMDI based PUUMHS shows obvious double amide III bands while the MDI based has only prominent one. The results are discussed according mainly to the different characteristics of the three chain extenders as well as the structure difference between MDI and HMDI.
