Abstract

In this study, 2,6-diacetylpyridine dioxime was synthesized from 2,6-diacetylpyridine and hydroxylamine hydrochloride as raw materials and bonded into the molecular chain of waterborne polyurethane as an alcohol chain extender, Subsequent addition of Cu2+ interacted with the Schiff base structure in the WPU molecular chain to generate room-temperature self-healing polymeric materials with multiple dynamic bonds based on ligand bonds, oxime carbamates, and hydrogen bonds. Due to the synergistic effect of multiple dynamic bonds, DWPU-Cu0.25 exhibited excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength of 11.9 MPa and elongation at break of 1620%) and excellent room temperature self-healing ability (healing efficiencies of 89.1% and 95.8% for elongation at break and tensile strength, after 72 h of room temperature healing). Additionally, antibacterial experiments showed that DWPU-Cu films can release copper ions and create antibacterial zones around polyurethane films, demonstrating their use in the field of antibacterial coatings. By introducing covalent bonds and non-covalent dynamic bonds into the waterborne polyurethane to improve the healing ability of the material, and this internal self-healing method avoids the disadvantages of the external self-healing method, such as irreversibility, complex operation and poor compatibility. This self-healing mechanism based on the dynamic bond inside the material can not only realize repeated self-healing, but also have excellent basic properties, and can also expand other functions on the basis of self-repair, and realize the application of multifunctional materials.
