Polyurethane Polyamides

The minimum service temperature is determined primarily by the Tg of the soft phase component. Thus the SBS materials ctm be used down towards the Tg of the polybutadiene phase, approaching -100°C. Where polyethers have been used as the soft phase in polyurethane, polyamide or polyester, the soft phase Tg is about -60°C, whilst the polyester polyurethanes will typically be limited to a minimum temperature of about 0°C. The thermoplastic polyolefin rubbers, using ethylene-propylene materials for the soft phase, have similar minimum temperatures to the polyether-based polymers. Such minimum temperatures can also be affected by the presence of plasticisers, including mineral oils, and by resins if these become incorporated into the soft phase. It should, perhaps, be added that if the polymer component of the soft phase was crystallisable, then the higher would also affect the minimum service temperature, this depending on the level of crystallinity.

Kaminsky90,92 has reported the product distribution obtained in the fluidized bed pyrolysis of different condensation polymers (polyesters, polyurethanes, polyamides, etc.). Polyester degradation led to 51% of gases, with a high proportion of CO and C02, and 40% of oil rich in benzene, toluene and naphthalene, the formation of water also being detected. On the other hand, polyurethane and polyamide decomposition led to the formation of about 40% gases and 55% oil. In both cases, the gases obtained contained certain amounts of HCN.

Step-growth Polymerization The simplest scheme of this polymerization involves the reaction of a difunctional monomer AB, which contains both functional groups A and B in the molecule. For example, A can be an amine and B a carboxylic acid group. Another scheme involves the reaction between two difunctional monomers of the type AA and BB. In any case, each polymer linkage will have involved the reaction of the functional groups A and B coming from two molecules (monomers or chains). Some examples of polymers synthesized by this mechanism are polyurethane, polyamide, and polyester. 

Porous materials used in soft tissue applications include polyurethane, polyamide, and polyester velours used in percutaneous devices. Porous reconstituted coUagen has been used in artificial skin, and braided polypropylene has been used in artificial ligaments. As in the case of bone implants, the porosity encourages tissue ingrowth which anchors the device.

It is difficult to make a distinct classification of biodegradable polymers. Many authors have classified them according to their origin as natural or synthetic polymers. Both of these are subdivided into different classes based on the main linkages present in their structure. Thus completely biodegradable natural polymer subclasses include polysaccharides, polypeptides, polyesters, lipids, natural rubber and natural composites (wood). Partially biodegradable synthetic polymer subclasses include polyesters, polyur eas, polyurethanes, polyamides, poly( vinyl alcohol) and poly (ethylene glycol).

Variables in the bonding operation are the frequency generated, dielectric loss of the plastic, the power applied, pressure, and time. The materials most suitable for dielectric welding are those that have strong dipoles. These can often be identified by their high electrical dissipation factors. Materials most conunonly welded by this process include polyvinyl chloride, polyurethane, polyamide, and thermoplastic polyester. Because the field intensity decreases with distance from the source, this process is normally used with thin polymer films.
