Infrared spectroscopic investigation of propylene oxide-ethylene oxide polymers

Abstract

The surfactant properties of the title polymers depend on the total and relative number of the propylene oxide (PO) and ethylene oxide (EO) groups.

These numbers were determined by IR spectroscopy on the basis of the symmetrical bending vibration of the methyl group and the wagging vibration of the methylene group applying the Beer — Lambert law.

Some interesting absorption characteristics of the polymers have been revealed.
