Abstract
AbstractAttempts to synthesize s‐triazine ring containing polyetherols from melamine and ethylene carbonate are described. The conditions of synthesis providing optimal yields of the polyetherols were 165°C, melamine to ethylene carbonate molar ratio 1 : 9 to 1 : 18, and 4 g of potassium carbonate or diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane catalyst per mole of melamine. The structure of the products was established by 1H‐NMR and IR spectroscopy. The kind and amount of side products [mostly poly(ethylene glycols)] was determined by GLC. The polyetherols have been found useful in the synthesis of polyurethanes of improved thermal stability. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 80: 1776–1784, 2001
