In situ experiments were performed with a portable RIM (reaction injection molding) minimachine interfaced to an FTIR spectrophotometer to follow the reaction chemistry and monitor phase separation of copoly(urethane urea)s during RIM polymerization. The PUU copolymers were based on ethylene oxide-c

## Abstract Phase separation in a segmented polyurethane has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry. The glass transition temperature of the soft phase decreases logarithmically with time to a limiting value at each annealing temperature. The magnitude of the decrease is larger at low an
The phase-separation process in segmented copolymers is treated by first-order kinetics which couples with the Fox equation to derive an expression for describing the change of soft segment T, with the annealing time. Kinetic data of five commercial polyurethanes have been analyzed. The studies conc
Segmented oligomers consisting of polyoctenylene hard segments and unsaturated polytetrahydrofuran soft segments were prepared using acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) copolymerization techniques. These are the first such segmented materials prepared via metathesis chemistry. Two different molecular w
## Abstract The phase separation and morphology in poly(urethane urea)s were investigated as soft segment length and chain extender structure were varied. Increases in soft segment length led to increased phase separation that resulted in greater mobility of the soft segment. This was shown by lowe
