Modyfikowanie HTPB (α,ω-dihydroksypolibutadienu) w reakcjach estryfikacji, silanizacji, epoksydacji i uwodornienia

Abstract

HTPB is a valuable comonomer for the preparation of polyurethanes. Thanks to its specific properties, it gives these materials frost resistance and excellent mechanical properties, especially at low temperatures. The polyurethanes thus obtained are used in the production of propellants used in space and military rocket propulsion, and are the basis for frost-resistant adhesives and insulating materials. Research on the selection of binder indicates the use of high energy polymers or modifications of previously used polymers improving their properties. The results of research on ways of changing the properties of HTPB through its modification and thus an increase of application possibilities will be presented.
