Abstract
Polarity determines the oil resistance property of elastomers. In this work, three bio-based polyester elastomers (BPEs) with different mass fraction of ester groups (E) are designed and synthesized aiming to study the relationship of E and oil resistance performance, and to obtain bio-based elastomer materials with tunable oil resistance. Through adjusting the chain length of monomers, E of poly(ethylene glycol/1,3-propanediol/succinate/adipate/itaconate)(PEPSAI), poly(1,3-propanediol/1,4-butanediol/succinate/adipate/itaconate)(PPBSAI), and poly(1,3-propanediol/1,4-butanediol/sebacate/adipate/itaconate)(PPBSeAI) are ≈50.39%, 48.55%, and 39.68%, respectively. Results show that E has great influence on the oil resistance of BPEs. After being immersed in IRM-903# oil for 72 h at room temperature, the changes in mass and volume of BPEs decrease along with the increasing mass fraction of ester groups, indicating improved oil resistance performance. PEPSAI with the highest mass fraction of ester groups presents better oil resistance and lower Tg (better low-temperature resistance) than one of the most used commercial oil-resistant rubber nitrile rubber (N230S). Thus, this work provides a promising strategy to obtain bio-based oil resistant elastomers with practical value.

Abstract
Bio-based polyester elastomers have been widely studied by researchers in recent years because of their comprehensive sources of monomers and environmentally friendly characteristics. However, compared with traditional petroleum-based elastomers, the thermal decomposition temperature of bio-based polyester elastomers is generally low, limiting the application of bio-based elastomers. An effective strategy to increase the intrinsic thermal decomposition temperature (Td) of bio-based elastomers is to increase the length of the monomer carbon chain in the bio-based elastomers. In this work, the content of dodecanedioic acid (DDA) in a bio-based polyester elastomer composed of butanediol (BDO) and succinic acid (SUA) was increased to improve the Td of the bio-based polyester elastomer through the reaction force-field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF-MD) simulations. And the thermal decomposition mechanism of the bio-based polyester was analyzed in detail. By calculating the change rate of the molecular chain mean square displacement (MSD), it was determined that when the content of DDA was 50%, the Td of the bio-based elastomer was up to 718 K. By calculating the activation energy of thermal decomposition and further analyzing the thermal decomposition process, it is found that the thermal decomposition of the bio-based polyester elastomer is mainly through breaking the C-O bond in the backbone. This work is expected to provide theoretical guidance for designing and fabricating highly heat-resistant bio-based elastomers by systematically exploring the thermal decomposition mechanism of bio-based polyester elastomers.
