Abstract:

:Comb-branched waterborne polyurethane/poly ( isobornyl acrylate ) ( CWPU/PIA ) copolymerization emulsion was prepared, with isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) as the monomer and with CWPU as the dispersant. Then, the effect of IBOA content on the properties of CWPU/PIA copolymerization emulsion was analyzed by means of FT-IR, TEM, particle size distribution and contact angle measurements. The results show that ( 1 ) the particles in CWPU/PIA copolymerization emulsion possess a core-shell structure with CWPU as the shell and with PIA as the core; (2) the particle size increases with the IBOA content; (3) at a IBOA content of less than 40%, the average particle size of CWPU/PIA copolymerization emulsion is below 150nm; (4) IBOA content has no obvious influence on the contact angle of CWPU/IBOA film, but it greatly affects the water absorptivity ; and (5) with the increase in IBOA content, the water absorptivity of the films decreases while the water resistance improves.
