Microcrystalline Cellulose/Polyurethane Wood Material Preparation and Properties Research

Abstract:

The microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was used as the filler to modify the properties of polyurethane (PU) woodlike material. As we can see from the experimental data, with the gradually increase the amount of MCC added, polyurethane fracture shape variable and the maximum tensile force also increase accordingly, but due to its large density effect on the performance of other, So MCC to improve the effect of polyurethane compression performance is not very big; Through before and after the modification of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the modification of polyurethane materials in amino carbonyl ester peak, so that MCC and polyurethane chemical reaction happened.
