One-Pot Processing of Regenerated Cellulose Nanoparticles/Waterborne Polyurethane Nanocomposite for Eco-friendly Polyurethane Matrix

Regenerated cellulose nanoparticles (RCNs) reinforced waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) were developed to improve mechanical properties as well as biodegradability by using a facile, eco-friendly approach, and introducing much stronger chemical bonding than common physical bonding between RCNs and WPU....

description Regenerated cellulose nanoparticles (RCNs) reinforced waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) were developed to improve mechanical properties as well as biodegradability by using a facile, eco-friendly approach, and introducing much stronger chemical bonding than common physical bonding between RCNs and WPU. Firstly, RCNs which have an effect on improving the solubility and stability of a solution, thereby resulting in lower crystallinity, were fabricated by using a NaOH/urea solution. In addition, the stronger chemical bond between RCNs and WPU was here introduced by regarding at which stage in particular added RCNs worked best on strengthening their bond in the process of WPU synthesis. The chemical structure, mechanical, particle size and distribution, viscosity, and thermal properties of the resultant RCNs/WPU nanocomposites were investigated by Fourier transform infrared analysis (FTIR), Zeta-potential analysis, viscometer, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Instron, and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The results of all characterizations indicated that the RCNs/WPU-DMF associated with the addition of RCNs in DMF-dispersed step resulted in more effectively crosslinked between WPU and nano-fillers of nanocellulose particles in the dispersion than Acetone and Water-dispersed steps, thereby attributing to novel interactions formed between RCNs and WPU.
