Abstract:
Effects of the chemical nature, structure and molecular weight of oligoether and diisocyanate blocks of crosslinked polyurethanes on the spectral-luminescent properties of the xanthene dye Rhodamine 6G in polyurethanes, based on ether and ester oligodiols, aromatic and aliphatic diisocyanates have been studied. A number of polyurethanes were synthesized and investigated: polyurethane, based on oligooxypropylene glycol with a molecular weight of 1000, toluene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane; polyurethane, based on oligodiethylene glycol adipate with a molecular weight of 1500, toluene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane; and polyurethane, based on oligodiethylene glycol adipate with a molecular weight 1500, hexamethylene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane. The analysis of absorption spectra showed that the monomer-dimer ratio of the dye in these polymers (the degree of dye association), as well as, the Stokes shift depended on the value of dielectric permeability – one of the main factors of the polymer polarity. Despite the overall efficient use of polyurethane matrices as active laser media in the development of dye lasers, the value of dielectric constant was found out to be taken into account at the polyurethane choosing. This parameter depends on the number of polar groups in the polymer, and it is determined by the molecular weight, nature and chemical structure of the polymer components. Among a number of selected polyurethanes, the best optical properties of Rhodamine 6G were observed in the polyurethane, based on oligooxypropylene glycol with a molecular weight of 1000, toluene diisocyanate and trimethylolpropane.
Keywords: dye, polyurethane, polarity, dielectric permeability.
