The 4,4′-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and a mixture (about 80:20) of 2,4- and 2,6-toluene diisocyanates (TDI) were provided by Elantas Europe S.r.l. and stored at − 18 °C. Reagent grade triethylamine (TEA), benzylamine (BA) and dibutylamine (DBA) were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Acetone-d6 was purchased from Sigma Aldrich.
HPLC water was purified using the Milli-Q system. HPLC grade acetonitrile was purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Technical grade acetonitrile and n-hexane were purchased from Carlo Erba. Technical grade dry tetrahydrofuran (THF) was purchased from Sigma Aldrich.
Three batches of PA were provided by Elantas Europe S.r.l. Samples have a mean viscosity of 1100 mPa s and a mean dry content of 22.9% (solvent used is NMP). Three samples were chosen corresponding to three batches produced over a year (Table 1). One batch was marked as anomalous as slightly greater quantities of MDI and TDI were added during the condensation step of the synthesis process to achieve final specifications.

Fatty Acid Methyl Ester of Very High Oleic Sunflower Oil (FAMEVHOSO) with 3.32 mmol double bond/g was kindly supplied by the ITERG group (Canéjan, France). The FAMEVHOSO is composed of 83% of oleic acid. Table S1 presents the distribution of fatty methyl esters of unsaturated FAMEVHOSO. Glacial acetic acid (AA), toluene (99%), H2O2 30%, ethyl acetate (99%), and ethanol (99.9%) were obtained from Fisher Scientific (Illkirch-Graffenstaden, France). Amberlyst® 15H (strongly acidic cation exchanger dry), Amberlite® IR120H (strongly acidic hydrogen form), CDCl3, phenylisocyanate (98%), dibutylamine (DBA) (99.5%), HBr (48% in water), HCl (37% in water), and diethylamine (99%) (DEA) were provided by Sigma-Aldrich (Saint-Quentin-Fallavier, France). ethanol absolute (EtOH) was purchased from VWR (Briare, France). All of the chemicals were used without any purification.

HPLC Solvent Preparation and Reagent Sourcing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Acetonitrile (HPLC grade, 99.9%) and toluene (HPLC grade, 99.9%) was purchased from Fischer Scientific (Loughborough, UK). Mobile phase A was prepared using ultrapure water obtained from a Millipore Milli-Q Gradient A10 system (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA). Formic acid (≥95%), dibutylamine (DBA) (≥99.5%) and non-deuterated as well as deuterated labelled (d9-or d18-labelled) isocyanate standard mixtures, see Online Supplementary Material, were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Steinheim, Germany).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
