Abstract:Firstly, vanillin oxime (VO) was synthesized from vanillin and hydroxylamine hydrochloride. Then anionic vanilla oxime self-repairing waterborne polyurethane (VO-SWPU) was prepared by polymerization with polytetrahydrofuran (PTMEG) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) using VO as alcohol extender and 2-dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA) as hydrophilic extender. VO-SWPU film was prepared. The structure of VO was characterized by FTIR and 1HNMR, and the thermal properties of VO-SWPU films were tested by DSC and TGA. Based on self-healing experiments and tensile tests, the effects of isocyanate index (R) and n (PTMEG) / n (VO) on the self-healing ability and mechanical properties of VO-SWPU films were investigated. The results show that the addition of VO has no significant effect on the thermal degradation process of VO-SWPU thin films, and the T5% (temperature of weight loss 5%) of all samples is above 210C. The scratches of SWPU-1 films prepared by R=1.2 ,n(PTMEG) / n (VO) = 2.5 disappear completely after being repaired at 45 ℃ for 40 min. After the SWPU-1 film and SWPU-3 film prepared by n (PTMEG) / n (VO) = 2.5 healed at 60 ℃ for 2 h, the tensile strength of the self-repaired SWPU-1 film and SWPU-3 film was 13.23 and 19.12 MPa, respectively, and the self-repair efficiency was 96.5% and 82.2%, respectively.
