Abstract

Chain extenders including diethanol amine (DEA) and 2-cyano-N,N-bis-hydroxyethyl acetamide (CNBA) were utilized to enhance the adhesion and mechanical properties of a polyurethane (PU) adhesive. The adhesion and mechanical properties of the adhesives were studied by peel test, tensile test and dynamic thermal analysis (DMTA) respectively. Results revealed that both chain extenders (DEA and CNBA) increased peel test modulus. The cross-linking density and toughness of the adhesive were significantly increased using chain extenders. Results showed that chain extender without side chain (DEA) could improve the adhesion and mechanical properties of the adhesive greater than chain extender with aliphatic side group (CNBA).
