Abstract:One novel hydroxyl-terminated block copolyether(PTHF-PEO-PTHF)was synthesized by tetrahydrofuran cationic ring-opening polymerization and linkage of polytetrahydrofuran with two terminals of polyethylene glycol (PEG),using PEG as macroinitiator,boron-trifuoride ethylether complex (BF3·OEt2) as catalyst,and epoxy propane(PO)as assistant ring-opening . The obtained copolyether was characterized by IR and 1H NMR. Moreover,polyurethane elastomers were prepared with hydroxy terminated polyether (HTPE),and the elastomers have satisfactory mechanical properties,low glass transition temperature(Tg=-69.03 ℃),and good thermal stability. These can meet the requirements of binder for solid propellant.
