PERUBAHAN KARAKTERISTIK PEMBENTUKAN POLIURETAN BERBASIS HTPB DAN TDI BERDASARKAN KOMPOSISI REAKSI (CHANGES IN THE FORMATION CHARACTERISTICS OF POLYURETHANE BASED ON HTPB AND TDI REACTION COMPOSITION)

Effect of Hyperbranched Polyesters on HTPB Polyurethane Curing Kinetic

Effects of hyperbranched polyesters on kinetics of the reaction between hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) were investigated. HTPB and IPDI were in-situ cured in the presence of two different hyperbranched polyesters, stearic acid ester-terminated hyperbranched polyester (SHPE) and acetate-terminated hyperbranched polyester (AHPE). The curing processes w...

HTPB-Polyurethane: A Versatile Fuel Binder for Composite Solid Propellant

Biological monitoring of TDI-derived amines in polyurethane foam production.

BACKGROUND Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is used in industry in the production of flexible polyurethane foam, commonly a mixture of the 2,4- and 2,6- isomers. The production process may lead to exposure to diisocyanates which are associated with respiratory disease. A method has been available for the determination of TDI biomarkers in urine for some years. AIMS To explore the usefulness of urin...

Influences of NCO/OH and triol/diol Ratios on the Mechanical Properties of Nitro-HTPB Based Polyurethane Elastomers

The present study describes the effect of NCO/OH and triol/diol ratios on the mechanical properties of Nitro functionalized Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (Nitro-HTPB) elastomers. The progress of the cure reaction of Nitro-HTPB and toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is evaluated by following up the variations in the IR absorption bands of the NCO stretching and the CO ...

Investigating the Effect of Curing Agent and Casting Temperature on Pot Life of Binder System Based on HTPB

Effect of temperature and curing agent type parameters on rheological behavior of binder system based on Hydroxyl terminated Polybutadiene (HTPB) is important in the aspect of production for medium and large-size grains. In this research, the effect of casting temperature 40, 50 and 60 ºC) and chemical structure of curing agents (TDI, IPDI and HDI) on rheological behavior of a binder system bas...
