Abstract
AbstractHard segment hydrogen bonding interactions in a particular polyurethane segmented copolymer have been analysed through a viscometric approach to determine the behaviour of polyurethane solutions with different solvent compositions. Analysis of log ηspversus log c[η] master curves (solely comprising dilute and semidilute regimes) showed that these systems could be differentiated by the slope of the first part of the curve (dilute regime), the characteristic reduced concentration c*[η], and the slope of the second part of the curve (semidilute regime), differences which were related to a possible occurrence of polymer aggregates. Experiments with solutions in the concentrated regime, at different temperatures, were used to relate non‐Newtonian behaviour to hydrogen bonding.© 2001 Society of Chemical Industry
