Hydrogen bonding and mechanical properties of thin films of polyether-based polyurethane-silica nanocomposites
Two series of thin films of polyether-based polyurethane-silica nanocomposites having hard segment content of 51 and 34 % and different concentrations of SiO2 nanoparticles (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0 vol%) have been prepared. Infrared linear dichroic (LDIR) ratio, mechanical and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements were performed in order to determine the influence of hydrogen bonding on their mechanical and thermal properties. The degree of phase separation (DPS) and orientational functions in dependence on strain were calculated from the polarized IR spectra. The presence of silica nanoparticles gives rise to significant differences in the mechanical (stress-strain) properties of the nanocomposites with regard to the pure polymer. The nanocomposite thin films with lower hard segment content (HSC) displayed decreased stiffness and tensile strenght and increased elongation at break in comparison to the nanocomposites with higher HSC. There was no distinctive influence of nanoparticles on the glass transition temperatures of soft segments. Nanosilica significantly affected the melting behavior of the hard phase only in samples with higher HSC.
