Abstract
ABSTRACT Four polyether ester plasticizers containing both ester groups and ether bonds were synthesized using 1,4‐butanediol, adipic acid, and alkyl ether alcohols as raw materials. By varying the type of end‐capping alcohol ether, the following plasticizers were prepared: poly (butylene adipate dibutyl ether) (PBADBE), poly (butylene adipate butyl ether) (PBABE), poly (butylene adipate dimethyl ether) (PBADME), and poly (butylene adipate methyl ether) (PBAME). These plasticizers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 1 H‐NMR), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Furthermore, their differences in cold resistance, heat resistance, and physical‐mechanical properties in hydrogenated nitrile‐butadiene rubber (HNBR) were investigated. The results showed that among the rubber compounds containing the four polyether‐ester plasticizers, the compound with PBADME demonstrated superior heat resistance and low‐temperature performance. Specifically, the PBADME‐containing compound exhibited a TR 10 temperature of −39.9°C and a brittleness temperature of −54°C. This significantly broadened the operating temperature range of the plasticizer, making it suitable for applications requiring both high‐temperature and low‐temperature performance.
期刊介绍:
Polymers for Advanced Technologies is published in response to recent significant changes in the patterns of materials research and development. Worldwide attention has been focused on the critical importance of materials in the creation of new devices and systems. It is now recognized that materials are often the limiting factor in bringing a new technical concept to fruition and that polymers are often the materials of choice in these demanding applications. A significant portion of the polymer research ongoing in the world is directly or indirectly related to the solution of complex, interdisciplinary problems whose successful resolution is necessary for achievement of broad system objectives.
Polymers for Advanced Technologies is focused to the interest of scientists and engineers from academia and industry who are participating in these new areas of polymer research and development. It is the intent of this journal to impact the polymer related advanced technologies to meet the challenge of the twenty-first century.
Polymers for Advanced Technologies aims at encouraging innovation, invention, imagination and creativity by providing a broad interdisciplinary platform for the presentation of new research and development concepts, theories and results which reflect the changing image and pace of modern polymer science and technology.
Polymers for Advanced Technologies aims at becoming the central organ of the new multi-disciplinary polymer oriented materials science of the highest scientific standards. It will publish original research papers on finished studies; communications limited to five typewritten pages plus three illustrations, containing experimental details; review articles of up to 40 pages; letters to the editor and book reviews. Review articles will normally be published by invitation. The Editor-in-Chief welcomes suggestions for reviews.
