Abstract
A series of polyurethanes with different siloxane contents were synthesized, which were based on 4,4′-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), poly(tetramethylene oxide) (PTMO), aminoethylaminopropyl poly(dimethyl siloxane) (AEAPS), and butanediol (BD). The chemical compositions, structures, and bulk and surface properties were investigated using an infrared surface quantitative analysis technique (FTIR-ATR), surface contact angle, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), stress–strain analysis, and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). It was shown that siloxane concentration on the surface region of the elastormers was higher than that in the bulk for a resulting surface enrichment of the siloxane, and the tensile properties of these elastomers were not changed significantly with the AEAPS modification. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
