Abstract
In this study, a two-element model consisting of a non-linear spring and a viscous dashpot was proposed to simulate tensile curve of polyurethane fibers. The results showed that the two-element model can simulate the tensile curve of the polyurethane fibers better with a simple and applicable feature compared to the existing three-element model and four-element model. The effects of isocyanate index (R) on the hydrogen bond (H-bond) and the micro-phase separation of polyurethane fibers were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and x-ray pyrometer, respectively. The degree of H-bond and micro-phase separation increased first and then decreased as the R value increased, and gain a maximum at the value of 1.76, which is in good agreement with parameters viscosity coefficient η and the initial modulus c in the model.
