Polyoxyethylene Tridecyl Ether Used for the Emulsification of Waterborne Polyurethane with Biomedical Applications

Polyoxyethylene Tridecyl Ether Used for the Emulsification of Waterborne Polyurethane with Biomedical Applications Wang, Dean-Jay, and Shan-hui Hsu. Materials Today Communications 39 (2024): 109351.

Polyoxyethylene tridecyl ether plays a critical role in the stabilization of novel waterborne polyurethane (WBPU) systems, particularly those designed for biomedical applications. In a recent synthesis strategy, polyoxyethylene tridecyl ether was employed in conjunction with polyoxyethylene styrenated phenyl to form a nonionic surfactant system that effectively emulsifies high-solid-content polyurethane prepolymers.
The WBPU formulation is based on soft segments comprising polycarbonate diol (PCDL) and polytetramethylene ether glycol, with 4,4'-methylene dicyclohexyl diisocyanate as the diisocyanate component. Dimethylolbutanoic acid serves as the internal emulsifier, introducing carboxylic acid groups later neutralized by triethylamine. Upon emulsification with the nonionic surfactant system-where polyoxyethylene tridecyl ether constitutes 50%-the neutralized prepolymer forms a stable dispersion upon addition of deionized water and subsequent chain extension with ethylenediamine.
The surfactant system ensures uniform particle distribution, reduces viscosity, and enhances the long-term colloidal stability of the WBPU dispersion. The resulting polymer exhibited 45% solid content and demonstrated excellent hydrophilicity and hemocompatibility-attributes essential for biomedical use.
Thus, polyoxyethylene tridecyl ether is indispensable in synthesizing advanced WBPUs, offering not only emulsification efficiency but also compatibility with biomedical-grade materials. Its use exemplifies the integration of tailored surfactants into next-generation polymeric dispersions.
