Influence of obtaining methods and kind of bio-monomer on course of synthesis and selected properties of novel thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers.

Project relates to the novel polyurethane materials as thermoplastic elastomers which will be obtained using bio-derived substrates. As a part of project the research stay is planned and including experimental works such: study on the synthesis of bio-TPU (kinetics and the influence of synthesis methods on the chemical structure of obtained bio-TPU) by using two methods: one-stage and prepolymer methods. Due to the fact that new substrates will be used to the synthesis of bio-TPU it is essential to investigate course of a reaction and an effect on the chemical and segmented structure of bio-TPU. In the case of polyurethane materials, the chemical structure determines the thermal and processing properties of these materials. The project will be realized in the University of the Basque Country in the prof. Arantxa Eceiza research group at the laboratory which is specialized in synthesis, analysis and recycling of polymers, especially polyurethane (thermoplastics and elastomers). This research stay lead to fully characteristic the prepolymer synthesis control by GPC measurements and also support during data analysis. Beside the new knowledge about kinetics of bio-TPU synthesis and deep analysis of their chemical structure, thermal and processing parameters, the research stay allows further continuation of cooperation with this University of the Basque Country, including the preparation of publications with the results obtained or research project.
