I'm going to perform FT-IR analysis of polyurethanes with different softsegments. Because polyurethanes have a wide spectrum of possible components I'm looking for literature featuring polyurethane IR / FT-IR spectra with the goal to have an overview over possible peaks. I would appriciate any literature recommendation!
Some literatures:
David Fournier, Filip Du Prez, Macromolecules 2008, 41, 4622-4630
Chien-Kung Lina, Jen-Feng Kuoa, Chuh-Yung Chena, Jing-Jing Fang, Polymer, 53, 254-258.
There is an old saying that the best way to help others is not giving them the fish, but teaching them how to go fishing.
You can also search "polyurethane FTIR" in scopus, and over 1500 papers are related to the FTIR spectra of various polyurethane.
Thank you very mutch! The reason for this inquiry is not the reason that I didn't find anything - more likely the opposite. However, there are a lot of papers out there which use IR for analysis but do not print the spectra or only print them very small/bad definition. By asking other people I hope to collect a higher number of good quality spectra in a shorter period of time in comparison to searching alone.
Yes, this is in agreement with my findings. However, I think that different monomers will lead to slight changes in the peak position or different peaks may even overlap - therefore I also like to see spectra from polyurethanes produced from different monomer/chainextender combinations.
