Abstract:

In recent years، waterborne polyurethanes as in coatings and adhesives formulations have attracted considerable attention because they are non-toxic، non-flammable and friendly to environment. Besides environmental management، the flexibility، low temperature property، high tensile strength، good adhesion and improved rheological property are specific properties of waterborne polyurethanes. Also low production cost of water borne polyurethanes over solvent-borne polyurethanes is also a reason for their applications. However، these materials have some defects such as weak water resistance and low adhesion in the moisture environment due to sensitivity of their hydrophilic ionic bonds، ether groups، urethane and ester groups to hydrolysis which need to be improved. Also، low heat resistance of these materials is due to a relatively low crystalline melting point or glass transition temperature of hard segments. One of the ways to solve this problem and improve its properties for different applications is the addition of inorganic fillers especially nano-sized layered silicates within polyurethane matrix. In this way water resistance، heat resistance، mechanical properties and modulus increase simultaneously. In this research، waterborne polyurethane nanocomposites with PTMG polyol، IPDI، DMPA (internal emulsifier)، TEA (neutralizer) and 1، 3 and 5weight % of Cloisite 30B as reinforcement were synthesized and characterized. Polarity of the samples was investigated by contact angle test and dispersion of nano particles in the samples was characterized by X-Ray and TEM، Thermal properties and dynamic mechanical properties were measured by TGA and DMTA، respectively. The results showed that incorporation of clay into polyurethanes did reduce water absorption and increased heat resistance، modulus، particle size and contact angle.
