Abstract
Abstract2‐Nonyl‐2‐oxazoline and 2‐(9‐decenyl)‐2‐oxazoline have been copolymerized in different proportions by cationic ring‐opening polymerization to obtain a series of random linear copolymers with tailored molecular weight and double bond functionality in the side chains. Thiol‐ene addition of 2‐mercaptoethanol has been used to produce a set of polyoxazoline–polyols under mild conditions and with quantitative double bond transformation. The polyols obtained in this way were reacted with methylene‐bis(phenylisocyanate) to yield a series of amorphous and semicrystalline polyurethane networks. The thermal stability and the thermomechanical properties of these thermosets have been studied and related with the structure of the parent polyols. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
