Resumen

La espectroscopia de la transformación de Fourier en el infrarrojo (FTIR) revela los detalles de la cristalización del polietilenglicol (PEG). La absorbancia de triple pico en los espectros FTIR se asigna a las regiones de plegado de cadena, cadena extendida y amorfa de PEG.

Área de la Ciencia:

Ciencias de los Polímeros
Espectroscopia
Ciencias de los materiales

Sus antecedentes:

El polietileno glicol (PEG) es un polímero ampliamente utilizado en varias industrias.
La absorbancia de estiramiento de éter C-O-C en los espectros FTIR de PEG es una característica de diagnóstico clave.
Esta absorbancia aparece típicamente como un triple pico en el PEG semicristalino, pero sus componentes carecen de asignaciones claras.

Objetivo del estudio:

Asignar de manera concluyente los orígenes estructurales de la absorción de triple pico en el espectro FTIR de PEG.
Para correlacionar las características espectrales FTIR con los mecanismos de cristalización y las conformaciones de la cadena en PEG.
Facilitar el desarrollo de mejores métodos de procesamiento industrial para el PEG y sus copolímeros.

Principales métodos:

Síntesis de un copolímero de bloque de poliuretano fibrillar altamente orientado con segmentos blandos de PEG cristalizados de cadena extendida.
Aplicación de la conexión cruzada de segmentos duros densos bajo tensión de corte unidireccional durante la síntesis.
Análisis de los espectros FTIR para identificar y asignar picos de absorción específicos.

Principales resultados:

El componente del lado izquierdo del triple pico se asigna a las regiones de pliegue en cadena de PEG cristalizado.
El componente del lado derecho se asigna a regiones de cadena extendida de PEG cristalizado.
El componente central de ancho fuerte se asigna a cadenas orientadas al azar en la fase amorfa del PEG semicristalino.

Conclusiones:

El estudio asigna con éxito cada componente de la absorbancia de triple pico PEG FTIR a regiones estructurales y conformaciones de cadena específicas.
Esto proporciona un vínculo directo entre los espectros FTIR y el comportamiento de cristalización del PEG.
Los resultados permiten una mejor comprensión y control del procesamiento industrial de los materiales a base de PEG.

IR Frequency Region: X–H Stretching

IR Frequency Region: X–H Stretching

In IR spectroscopy, signals produced by the X−H bonds (such as C−H, O−H, or N−H) can be observed in the frequency range of 2700–4000 cm–1. The C−H stretching vibration forms sharp bands in the region 2850–3000 cm–1. The presence of the O−H stretching vibration leads to the forming of an absorption band in the frequency range 3650–3200 cm−1. At the same time, N−H stretching can be confirmed by absorption bands in...

IR Frequency Region: Alkene and Carbonyl Stretching

IR Frequency Region: Alkene and Carbonyl Stretching

Double bonds in alkenes and carbonyl compounds exhibit stretching frequencies in the diagnostic region of the IR spectrum. In addition, alkenes exhibit vinylic C–H stretching and C–H out-of-plane bending absorptions that are useful for identifying substitution patterns.
Stretching frequencies are affected by several factors, such as resonance, inductive effects, ring strain, dipole moment, and hydrogen bonding. Consequently, the stretching frequency of the carbonyl double bond...

IR Frequency Region: Alkyne and Nitrile Stretching

IR Frequency Region: Alkyne and Nitrile Stretching

Both alkyne (C≡C) and nitrile (C≡N) functional groups contain triple bonds and show stretching absorptions around the wavenumber range of 2100 to 2300 cm−1 in the diagnostic region of the IR spectra.
Comparing the stretching vibrational frequency of C≡C triple bonds with that of double and single bonds, it is evident that C≡C triple bonds exhibit a higher stretching frequency than C=C double and C–C single bonds. Similarly, the C≡N triple bond...

IR Spectrum Peak Splitting: Symmetric vs Asymmetric Vibrations

IR Spectrum Peak Splitting: Symmetric vs Asymmetric Vibrations

Identical bonds within a polyatomic group can stretch symmetrically (in-phase) or asymmetrically (out-of-phase). Similar to hydrogen bonding, these vibrations also influence the shape of the IR peak. Generally, asymmetric stretching frequencies are higher than symmetric stretching frequencies. For example, primary amines exhibit two distinct IR peaks between 3300–3500 cm−1 corresponding to the symmetric and asymmetric N-H stretching, while secondary amines exhibit a single...

IR Absorption Frequency: Hybridization

IR Absorption Frequency: Hybridization

Hydrocarbons such as alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes show characteristic C–H stretching absorption bands. These IR stretching frequencies depend on the hybridization of the involved carbon atom and can be explained in terms of the s character of each hybridized atomic orbital.
Among the sp, sp2, and sp3 hybridized orbitals, sp orbitals have the maximum s character (50%). Consequently, the electrons are held more closely to the nucleus, resulting in stronger and shorter C–H bonds that...

IR Spectrum Peak Intensity: Dipole Moment

IR Spectrum Peak Intensity: Dipole Moment

The dipole moment of a bond is the product of the partial charge on either atom and the distance between them. Dipole moments influence the efficiency of IR absorption and the peak intensity. When a bond with a dipole moment is placed in an electric field, the direction of the field determines if the bond is compressed or stretched. Electromagnetic radiation consists of an electric field component that rapidly reverses direction. It follows that polar bonds are alternately stretched and...
