with highly branched three-dimensional topological structures and outstanding mechanical properties
have recently received increasing attention in the modification of epoxy resins. Herein
HBPUs with different composition were synthesized and added into epoxy resins. Homogenous blending system and heterogeneous blending system were obtained by incorporating different HBPUs. The effect of micro-phase separation on toughening epoxy resins was removed by the homogeneous system
which proves the HBPU modifying epoxy resins. Aromatic hyperbranched polyurethane (M-HBPU) and aliphatic hyperbranched polyurethane (H-HBPU) were prepared through the reaction of diethanolamine with aromatic diisocyanate (MDI) and aliphatic diisocyanate (HDI) respectively
and the obtained polymers were added into epoxy resin as modifiers to make samples for test. The structures of the M-HBPU and H-HBPU were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The micro-phase structures were studied by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and the images showed that the blending of M-HBPU and epoxy resin was homogeneous after curing
while the blending of H-HBPU and epoxy resin was phase-separated. The mechanical properties
including flexural strength
impact strength
tensile strength and storage modulus
of the modified epoxy resins were improved after the treatment with both M-HBPU and H-HBPU. There was an optimal amount of the hyperbranched polyurethanes in the modified epoxy resin system. Meanwhile
differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) results revealed that the thermal performance of epoxy resins per-treated with the M-HBPU was enhanced markedly
as compared with the pure epoxy resins. The homogeneous phase system of epoxy resins was obtained successfully after the modification with M-HBPU. All these results indicated that the mechanical properties and thermal performances of the modified epoxy resin could be improved directly by M-HBPU without the effect of micro-phase separation.
