Individual Networks—Poly(urethane-urea). The polymers were self-crosslinking owing to the presence of triols already in the latex. Films were cast on glass with a doctor blade, dried for 15 min at room temperature, 15 min at 80 C (or until completely tack free), and cured for 30 min at 120°C. They were removed from the glass plate by immersion in hot, distilled water. They were dried further at 80°C under a vacuum of 2 Torr.

Polysulfones are self-extinguishing resin. Polysulfones with no flame retardant additives has been given 94V-0 under the UL Standards. The value of limited oxygen index (around 0.40) points out their excellent flame retardancy [109]. Furthermore, exposed to flame, polysulfones emit very little smoke or toxic volatiles. However, the high flameproof properties of polysulfones are scanty when they are used as electriccd parts or in an epoxy resins network. Poly(sulfone) (PSF) and p>oly(ether sulfone) (PES) are commonly used for high performance applications such as advanced...
