This work presents the results of research related to the determination of application possibilities of new oligoetherols with 1,3-pyrimidine rings and boron atoms in rigid polyurethane foam production. Oligoetherols were obtained from 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)uracil, boric acid, and ethylene carbonate. Their structure was determined by instrumental methods (IR, 1H-NMR and MALDI-ToF spectra) and the physicochemical and thermal properties were examined. Obtained oligoetherols were used for synthesis of polyurethane foams. Some properties of the foams, such as apparent density, water uptake, dimensions stability, thermal stability, compression strength, thermal conductivity, oxygen index, and horizontal burning were investigated. The introduction of boron atoms into the foam structure reduced their flammability, but unfortunately it had a negative effect on the water absorption of the obtained materials—the water absorption was higher compared to the boron-free foams. The obtained foams showed good thermal stability compared to classic, rigid polyurethane foams.

AbstractSyntheses of oligoetherols with a 1,3-pyrimidine ring and boron atoms using 6-aminouracil, ethylene carbonate and boric acid has been proposed. The structure of the obtained products were determined by instrumental methods (IR, 1H-NMR and MALDI-ToF spectra). The physicochemical and thermal properties of oligoetherols were examined. The products were characterized by high thermal stability. Based on the tests performed, it was found that oligoetherols obtained from 6-aminouracil, boric acid and ethylene carbonate are suitable for the manufacturing of polyurethane foams with improved thermal stability and reduced flammability.

-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)oxalamide (BHEOA) was subject to hydroxyalkylation with ethylene carbonate (EC). By means of instrumental methods (IR, -NMR, MALDI ToF, GC, and GC-MS), an influence of the reaction conditions on structure and compositions of the obtained products was investigated. The hydroxyalkyl and hydroxyalkoxy derivatives of oxalamide (OA) were obtained by reaction of BHEOA with 2–10-molar excess of ethylene carbonate (EC, 1,3-dioxolane-2-one). The products have a good thermal stability and possess suitable physical properties as substrates for foamed polyurethanes. The obtained products were used in manufacturing the rigid polyurethane foams which possess enhanced thermal stability and good mechanical properties.

The work focuses on research related to determination of application possibility of new, ecofriendly boroorganic polyols in rigid polyurethane foams production. Polyols were obtained from hydroxypropyl urea derivatives esterified with boric acid and propylene carbonate. The influence of esterification type on properties of polyols and next on polyurethane foams properties was determined. Nitrogen and boron impacts on the foams’ properties were discussed, for instance, on their physical, mechanical, and electric properties. Boron presence causes improvement of dimensional stability and thermal stability of polyurethane foams. They can be applied even at temperature 150°C. Unfortunately, introducing boron in polyurethanes foams affects deterioration of their water absorption, which increases as compared to the foams that do not contain boron. However, presence of both boron and nitrogen determines the decrease of the foams combustibility. Main impact on the decrease combustibility of the obtained foams has nitrogen presence, but in case of proper boron and nitrogen ratio their synergic activity on the combustibility decrease can be easily seen.

AbstractThe reaction between urea and ethylene carbonate occur with partial release of CO2 and partial incorporation of carbonate groups into products. The carbonate groups were found to be attached both to nitrogen of urea and to oxyethylene chain. The most effective catalyst of the synthesis was potassium carbonate. The hydroxyethyl and hydroxyethoxy groups of urea derivatives undergo partial dimerization to form carbamate groups in the products. The products of reaction between urea and ethylene carbonate have good thermal stability, they start to decompose at 200°C. The obtained products can be used as polyol components for polyurethane foams. Polyurethane foams obtained from hydroxyethoxy derivatives of urea (EC8) are rigid products of low water uptake, good stability of dimensions, low mass loss on 30 days heating at 150°C, enhanced thermal stability and good compressive strength.

Collagen was extracted from catfish (Clarias gariepnus) waste using 0.5M acetic acid and its subsequent precipitation in 2.6M NaCl. The resultant collagen was analysed with respect to its moisture content and physico­chemical properties including yield, pH, protein content, colour, odour and thermal stability. A yield of 16. 4% and positive collagen attributes indicate that catfish waste has potential as a collagen source. The snowy white, crystal-like and light textured collagen comprises of 5.97% protein and 0.46% moisture, and exhibits a pH of 4.75. Sensory evaluation indicates that the collagen has a slight fishy odour. Viscosity analysis indicates a steady decrease with increasing temperature over the range considered (20-50°C). The pale colour exhibited and limited odour emitted by the extracted collagen indicate that catfish waste collagen could be applied in the food industry without resulting in any undesirable food products attributes. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis indicated that the collagen exhibits good thermal stability and denatures at a high temperature in a similar manner to mammalian collagen.

AbstractNew method of synthesis of polyetherols with 1,3-pyrimidine ring by reactions of 6-aminouracil with ethylene carbonate and propylene oxide was described. The structure of products was analyzed using the IR, 1H-NMR and MALDI-TOF spectroscopies. Some physical properties and thermal stability of polyetherols were investigated. Initial tests on the foaming of polyurethanes obtained from the polyetherols were performed. Some properties of the foams such as apparent density, absorption of water, linear dimensions stability, thermal resistance and compression strength were investigated. Obtained foams show an improved thermal stability.

Lithium difuoro(axalato)bonate (LiODFB) was synthesized in dimethyl carbonate solvent and purified by the method of solventing-out crystallization. The structure characterization and thermal stability of LiODFB was performed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). LiODFB was exposed to 50% humidity air at 25°C for different time, then dried at 80°C for 12h, and the electrochemical properties of the cells using 1 mol/L dried LiODFB in ethylene carbonate + dimethyl carbonate + ethyl(methyl)carbonate were investigated. The results show that, pure crystallization LiODFB has been obtained; it has good thermal stability with a thermal decomposition temperature of 248°C; exposed to humidity air, it is firstly converted into LiODFB•H2O; with the exposed time increasesing, more and stronger impurity peaks in the XRD patterns of LiODFB are observed, both the discharge specific capacity and the capacity retention decrease gradually

Collagen was extractedfrom catfish (Clarias gariepnus) waste using 0.5M acetic acid and its subsequent precipitation in 2.6M NaCI. The resultant collagen was analysed with respect to its moisture content and physicochemical properties including yield, pH, protein content, colour, odour and thermal stability. A yield of 16.4% and positive collagen attributes indicate that catfish waste has potential as a collagen source.
