文摘
Oxidation and subsequent catalytic carbonation of limonene, gained from orange peels, afford high purity limonene dicarbonate (LC) as a versatile building block for tailoring linear and cross-linked non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPU) from renewable resources. Spectroscopic investigations reveal so far unknown highly colored carbonation byproducts which are successfully removed to yield crystalline LC. Melt-phase polyaddition of a dimer fatty acid based diamine and its diamine-terminated LC-prepolymers with carbonated 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDGC) produces 100% bio-based linear NIPU thermoplastics. Side-reactions occurring during polymerization account for decreasing molar mass with increasing LC content. Curing carbonated pentaerythritol glycidyl ether (PGC)/LC blends with 1,5-diaminopentane, gained from lysine, enables tailoring of 100% bio-based NIPU thermosets exhibiting unconventional property profiles. The incorporation of small amounts high purity LC substantially improves NIPU glass temperature, stiffness, and strength without sacrificing elongation at break. High purity LC prevents color formation of LC-based NIPU coatings.
