Abstract: The structure of crosslinked poly(ether urethane)was characterized by ATR-IR,and its conductivity of the polymer complex with LiClO4 is in close relationship with free-volume of the polymer, In the temperature range from 110─350K, lifetime spectra of positron annihilation in PEUhave been measured.The result shows that positron lifetime is sensitive to the transitions and free-volume holes in the polymer.From lifetime spectra we get the informations of secondary transition, glass transition and crystal melting transition.The temperature dependences of the size of free-volume in PEUare calculated from the o-Ps annihilation lifetime.

Key words: Positron annihilation, Poly(ether urethane), Glass transition, Secondary transition, Free-volume
