Polyurethane elastomers (PU) have been synthesized from polytetramethylene glycol 2000 (PTMG 2000); 4, 4 0 -diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and 1, 4-butanediol (BD) as chain extender. This synthesis has been done in two steps known as prepolymer methods. The concentration of soft segments and hydrogen attachment in the matrices, have been studied. The results show that the glass transition of the soft segment T g (s) do not take any changes with the concentration of the soft segment in the matrices.Although, the glass transition temperature of the hard segment T g (H) increases when the concentration of the hard segment increases in the matrices. In general, the properties of the polyurethane elastomers depend on the extenders nature, the synthesis methods, phase segregation etc.
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.
