Abstract
The reaction of diols with isocyanates, leading to mono-functional and di-functional prepolymers may be investigated using various characterization methods which show the overall conversion of isocyanate monomers. On the other hand, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) polymer characterization can be employed to identify the monomer units, the end-group functionalities, molecular weight averages, and to determine the copolymer sequence. Herein, we focus on prepolymer synthesis using isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), a widely used diisocyanate for prepolymers preparation, especially in waterborne polyurethane materials. Thus, the reaction between polyethylene glycol diol and IPDI was in-depth investigated by mass spectrometry to determine the influence of the reaction parameters on the prepolymer's structure. The relative content of the different functional oligomer species at given reaction times was determined in the reaction mixture. More specifically, the offline analysis revealed the influence of reaction parameters such as reaction temperature, the concentration of reactants, and the amount of dibutyltin dilaurate catalyst. The established MALDI MS analysis involved measurements of samples, first, directly collected from the reaction mixture and secondly, following derivatization with methanol. The obtained results revealed the effects of reaction parameters on the functionalization reaction with isocyanates, allowing to achieve a better reaction control.

Abstract
This review covers the applications of mass spectrometry (MS) and its hyphenated techniques to characterize polyurethane (PU) synthetic polymers and their respective hard and soft segments. PUs are commonly composed of hard segments including methylene bisphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and toluene diisocyanate (TDI), and soft segments including polyester and polyether polyols. This literature review highlights MS techniques such as electrospray ionization (ESI), matrix assisted laser/desorption ionization (MALDI), ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS), and computational methods that have been used for the characterization of this polymer system. Here we review specific case studies where MS techniques have elucidated unique features pertaining to the makeup and structural integrity of complex PU materials and PU precursors.
