Abstract:This study explores the synthesis and characterization of polyurethanes (PUs) derived from hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,n‐alkane diols with varying chain lengths (n = 4, 6, and 10). Additionally, pentaerythritol (PE) is introduced as a dopant in PU6 at different weight percentages (25%, 50%, 75%, and 1:1%w/w). The research encompasses a comprehensive analysis of PU properties, including morphology, crystallinity, surface area, porosity, thermal behavior, rheological properties, and electrical conduct… Show more
