| Abstract | The present work reports the development of a novel nitrogen rich hyperbranched polyurethane-urea nanocomposite using bio-sourced graphitic nanoparticles as an effective filler. Initially, a nitrogen rich hyperbranched polyol is obtained by a two step polycondensation reaction between castor oil derived sebacic acid and triethanolamine. The formation of the hyperbranched polyol was confirmed by using various spectroscopic techniques like FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and ESI-MS. The resulting hyperbranched polyol with 80% degree of branching was further reacted with carboxyl terminated graphitic nanoparticles in different weight percentages (0, 0.1 and 0.5% with respect to polyol weight) along with a diisocyanate (maintaining an OH : NCO ratio of 1 : 1.2) in order to get polyurethane-urea graphitic nanoparticle hybrid nanocomposites. The results suggest that the incorporation of graphitic nanoparticles improves the thermo-mechanical properties, hydrophobic nature, and bacterial and corrosion resistance of the polyurethane nanocomposite. It is seen that a minuscule incorporation of 0.5% graphitic nanoparticles into the polyurethane matrix improves the storage modulus from 365 to 996 MPa, the glass transition temperature from 67 °C to 95 °C, the water contact angle from 50° to 80° and reduces the corrosion rate from 9.2 × 10−3 to 5.29 × 10−5 mm per year in comparison with neat polyurethane. All these improvements in properties are accredited to the covalent linkage, geometry and uniform distribution of graphitic nanoparticles with the polyurethane matrix. In addition, all the polyurethane hybrids show good stability against various bacterial stains. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
