Tartaric acid derivative containing two free and two protected OH groups was introduced according to polycondensation, ring opening polymerization (in oligocarbonate synthesis step) and polyaddition (in prepolymer synthesis step as a chain extender) reactions. The prepared poly(carbonate-urethane)s were characterized by NMR and FT-IR spectroscopies, DSC and TGA thermal analyses, and mechanical properties measurements. The influence of the introduced tartaric acid derivative on properties of oligocarbonates and polyurethanes was investigated. ER -
