Abstract
This article describes synthesis of polyurethane (PU) elastomers based on DMC polyethers. The influence of the molecular weight of DMC polyethers on the strength characteristics and mechanical hysteresis of model PU composites based on them is studied. It is shown that, when the molecular weight of DMC polyethers changes in the range of 2000–4000, the strength of PU materials dramatically increases, while a considerable improvement of elastic properties is observed when using polyethers with MW = 8.000 or higher.
