Oxime-Based and Catalyst-Free Dynamic Covalent Polyurethanes
Abstract
Polyurethanes (PUs) have many applications resulting from their preeminent properties, but being commonly used toxic catalysts, and the lack of processability for PU thermosets cause limitations. Herein, we report a new class of the PU-like dynamic covalent polymers, poly(oxime-urethanes) (POUs), which are prepared from the uncatalyzed polyaddition of multifunctional oximes and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) at ambient temperature. Kinetics studies reveal that almost complete polymerization (∼99% conversion) can be achieved in 3 h at 30 °C in dichloromethane (DCM), the most effective among the solvents evaluated, producing linear POUs with comparable molecular weights to the catalyzed PUs. We find that the oxime-carbamate structures are reversible at about 100 °C through oxime-enabled transcarbamoylation via a thermally dissociative mechanism. The cross-linked POUs based on oxime-carbamate bonds show efficient catalyst-free healable/recyclable properties. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that the fast oxime-urethanation and the mild thermoreversible nature are mediated by the characteristic nitrone tautomer of the oxime. Given widespread urethane-containing materials, POUs are of promising potential in applications because of the excellent mechanical performances, facile preparation, and dynamic property without using catalysts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
