Abstract:This study explored the influence of non-reactive POSS nanostructures (Octa isobutyl silsesquioxane (OIBS) and Octa phenyl silsesquioxane (OPS)) on polyurethane (PU) from Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) resin and various curing agents (Toluene diisocyanate (TDI), Hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), Isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), and Dimeryl-diisocyanate (DDI)). Contrary to previous expectations, POSS nanostructures enhanced the initial viscosity of HTPB resin. The Chemo-rheological method and Arrhenius… Show more
