The invention discloses a performance-adjustable
polyester-based multi-block thermotropic shape memory material and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of
high polymer materials. Adding a synthesized catalyst, a catalyst
promoter and a
chain transfer agent into a reaction kettle, then adding an
organic solvent, selectively and uniformly mixing cyclosiloxane and a third
monomer according to a certain proportion, then adding the mixture into the reaction kettle at a
constant speed to prepare a
biopolymer, then adding cyclic ester according to a certain proportion, and carrying out a first
polymerization reaction at a certain temperature for a certain time to obtain a second
polymer; a triblock
polymer is prepared; and adding a chain
extender into the
reaction system, and carrying out a second
polymerization reaction at a certain temperature for a certain time to prepare the multi-block
polymer. The shape
recovery of the multi-block polymer can be triggered by adjusting the temperature. By changing the
monomer type and the feeding proportion, the polymer structure can be directly regulated and controlled so as to regulate and control the material performance. In addition, the
polymerization reaction adopted by the invention is an atom economical
route, the post-treatment is simple, no waste is discharged, and the method has a good industrial application prospect.
