Infrared temperature studies of a polyurea formed from 2-methylpentane
-1,5-diamine and 4,4'-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate) are presented, t
ogether with those of two model diureas, 2-methylpentane-1,5-diphenylu
rea and ethylene diphenylurea. The main thrust of the work concerns th
e interpretation of the infrared changes that are observed in ordered
and disordered hydrogen bonded ureas.
