Preparation, Structure and Properties of Urethane-Containing Elastomers Based on Epoxy Terminal Oligomers

The effect of polyester oligoethylene adipate molecular weight, diisocyanate structure, and chain extender on the properties of epoxyurethane-based oligomer elastomers was studied in this research. Oligoethylene adipates were obtained via polycondensation of adipic acid and ethylene glycol. Epoxyurethane oligomers were synthesized according to a two-step route with an oligodiisocyanate as an intermediate product. The elastomers with hard urethane hydroxyl blocks were synthesized from oligodiisocyanates. The deformation and strength properties of the elastomers were studied.
