Abstract The present study investigates the properties and structure of condensation non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPURs) prepared by reacting 2-hydroxy-6-naphthalenesulfonic acid (HNSA) with phenolsulfonic acid, urea and formaldehyde. Instrumental analyses confirmed a linear and segmented structure of the obtained condensation NIPURs. It was found that NIPUR films containing 20% HNSA and an equimolar ratio of rigid to flexible segments exhibited maximum values of tensile strength and tensile strain at break. All prepared samples showed a very high water resistance. The operating temperature of NIPUR samples based on HNSA was set between -33°C and +145°C. The first temperature was attributed to the glass transition of flexible segments, while the second one was associated with rigid segments melting. The higher the transition temperature, the higher the rigid segment content and the higher the HNSA content in the NIPUR sample.

Everyday human life cannot be separated from plastic. Almost all objects that are around us are made of plastic. In general, plastics are non-biodegradable, causing environmental problems caused by the increased volume of plastic waste. One way to overcome this is by recycling existing plastic waste. But the use of recycled plastics is very limited and considered inefficient because the process is more difficult and processing is more expensive than buying new plastic raw materials. Another alternative is to use bioplastics or biodegradable plastic. This plastic is more environmentally friendly because it is biodegradable or easily decomposed by microorganisms. Basically, bioplastics can be made from vegetable starches. In this study we will use starch extracted from banana peel waste as a base material for making bioplastics. In this research, glycerin which is used as a bioplastic adhesive or plasticizer will be used. Whether or not bioplastics depend on the resistance to water, the attractiveness of the bioplastics, the ability of the plastic to be decomposed by microorganisms. From this research, it is expected to produce bioplastics with high water resistance and high tensile strength and easy to decompose microorganisms.

The soap-free emulsion of vinyl acetate (VAc)/butyl acrylate (BA) copolymer was prepared by a semi-continuous and pre-emulsification polymerization method, using ammonium sulfate allyloxy nonylphenoxy poly(ethyleneoxy) (10) ether (DNS-86) as a reactive emulsifier. The effects of DNS-86 on the stability of the emulsion and the properties of the latex film were investigated. The infrared spectrum, thermal stability, glass transition temperature and micromorphology of latex were also studied. The results showed that the emulsion had the best stability and the conversion rate reached a maximum of 98.46% when the DNS-86 amount was 4 wt % of the total amount of monomers. Compared with the PVAc latex synthesized with octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (10) (OP-10), the latex prepared with DNS-86 has higher thermal stability and ionic stability, whereas the latex film has better water resistance.

Synthesis and characterization of bioplastics from Nagara sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas L) starch with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as a filler has been conducted. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of CMC addition on the characteristic of bioplastics from Nagara sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L) starch. Bioplastic synthesis was carried out by the melt intercalation method with variations in the amount of CMC 0-30% (w/w). Bioplastics were analyzed using FTIR spectrophotometer, thickness, solubility, water resistance, water vapor transmission rate, tensile strength and elongation. The values of the tensile strength of the bioplastic produced increases with increasing of CMC. The results also showed that the optimum CMC concentration in bioplastics production is 9% (w/w) with a tensile strength value 0.5281 N/mm2.

HighlightsThermo-physical characterization of two types of Kraft lignin mixed with three bio-plasticizer.Crude glycerol showed the greater depression in melting point with its increasing proportion.The acidic lignin has more tensile strength and density than the alkaline lignin.Micro-pores of the lignin pellet were minimized by adding bio-plasticizer.Abstract. Kraft lignin, a by-product of the paper industry, is well known for its binding properties, enabling its use in the production of pellets and briquettes from biomass. Different bio-plasticizers, by-products from the vegetable oil processing industry, could serve as plasticizers for biomass briquettes. The properties of three bio-plasticizers (glycerol, fatty acid, and biodiesel), when mixed with isolated Kraft lignin, were studied to identify their potential application as efficient binders for biomass briquettes. The phase transition characteristics (glass transition, pre-melting crystallization, and melting) of two types of isolated lignin samples (acidic and alkaline) and lignin-plasticizer mixtures were determined using a differential scanning calorimeter. The mechanical (tensile strength) and physical (density) characteristics of the compacted cylindrical lignin pellets were tested. The spatial distribution of micropores in the lignin pellets was studied using x-ray tomography. Even though an overlap was observed in the glass transition temperatures of the mixtures, a significant depression in the pre-melting crystallization and melting temperatures was observed for both lignin samples containing elevated concentrations of the bio-plasticizers, and the highest tensile strength was obtained for pellets with 10% bio-plasticizer. Among the three bio-plasticizers, crude glycerol showed the greatest depression in melting point with increasing proportions of both acidic lignin (60.7°C ±2°C) and alkaline lignin (85.1°C ±2°C). In general, alkaline lignin showed some limitations over acidic lignin in the tensile strength of the pellets as well as their fusion temperature, even though the addition of a bio-plasticizer improved the strength and depressed the melting point in both lignin-based samples. Keywords: Bio-plasticizer, Lignin, Mechanical properties, Microstructure, Phase transition.

The commercially available Curcuma mangga Val extract (CMVE) and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) blends were studied by electrospinning. The result showed inadequate tensile properties of commercial CMVE/PVA nanofiber mats with very high modulus (220.0 MPa) and low strain (50%). The commercial CMVE was then replaced by a type of non-commercial CMVE to compare them with those of the commercial bandage. A non-commercial CMVE was prepared by simply extracting of the fresh Curcuma mangga Val (CMV) produced in a liquid extract. This non-commercial CMVE was then blended with 10% (w/w) PVA at various concentrations of CMVE (0, 2, 5, 10 and 15%) (w/w). The morphology and tensile properties of the mats were investigated. The findings indicated that the tensile strength and modulus increased with CMVE concentrations, decreased of the mean fiber diameter. In this study, a nanofiber mat with a concentration of 2% CMVE was selected and compared to others. This mat had lower average fiber diameter (187.50 nm), tensile strength (8.93 ± 0.36 MPa) and modulus (31.37 ± 4.91MPa), and higher tensile strain (90%) than the commercial CMVE/PVA. Compared to the tensile properties of the Hansaplast bandage, the current tensile strength was higher, the tensile modulus was equivalent and lower tensile strain.

Polyurethane dispersion modified with polymethylsiloxane (Si-PUD) and its nanocomposites incorporated with clays (Cloisite 15A and 30B at 3 and 6 wt%) were synthesized and characterized in this work. FTIR analysis showed that Si-PUD and Si-PUD/clay nanocomposites were successfully manufactured. While the glass transition temperature was not affected by the modification of the siloxane and clays, thermal resistance from TGA and mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation at break from UTM were largely enhanced at 3 wt% of both C15A and C30B clay. Higher content of 6 wt% of C30B has inferior to other Si-PUD samples containing clay in mechanical properties. Surface with higher hydrophobicity was observed for Si-PUD and Si-PUD/clay nanocomposites compared to PUD.

AbstractUtilizing solution imidization, molecular weight and end group control techniques, soluble, fully cyclized polyimides with very high glass transition temperatures have been developed to meet high temperature applications. Mechanistic aspects are investigated for solution imidization by both the polyamic acid route and by the ester-acid route. Polyimides based on pyromellitic dianhydride and a 3F diamine exhibit glass transition temperatures of 420 °C. These polyimides are soluble in polar aprotic solvents and form tough, transparent films which demonstrate mechanical integrity and thermooxidative stability at 700 °F. Various processing routes are explored to demonstrate the viability of these materials in high temperature applications. Details of the synthesis and characterization of these materials will be provided.

In this work, PDMS modified PU was synthesized using two-stage method to improve water resistance and weather resistance in the waterborne polyurethane was investigated. It was found that the absorbed water content decreased with increasing PDMS content in polyurethane. It was also found that PDMS modified polyurethane had better solvent resistance than unmodified polyurethane. The structure incorporated the PDMS into the soft segment of polyurethane chains was confirmed by FTIR. The phase separation increased by increasing PDMS content and was confirmed by DSC. The particle size of the dispersions increased and tensile strength and hardness decreased with the increase of PDMS content. Furthermore, with the improved water resistance and elongation, it was hoped that the modified polyurethane could be used as wood coatings superior to the solvent-borne systems.
