A flexible polyurethane elastomer (PUE) is studied, and the improved impact-resistant
performance is revealed. Compressive stress–strain curves over a wide loading rate range …

Polyurethanes are a well-established part of adhesive markets. However due to the toxicity
of di-isocyanates used in the synthesis, finding an alternative route to synthetize …

Cardiovascular diseases are a severe threat to human health. Implantation of small‐
diameter vascular substitutes is a promising therapy in clinical operations. Polyurethane …

A series of thermosensitive polyethylene glycol (PEG)-polylactic-acid (PLA)-based
hydrogels were synthesized, through the Diels–Alder reaction, with tunable hydrophilicity …

The emergence of expanded thermoplastic polyurethane foam beads (ETPU) has expanded
the application range of polymer foam materials. However, most of the prepared bead foam …

Recent studies show good osteoinductive properties of polyurethanes modified with
polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS). In this work, three types of POSS; …

We present new side‐chain quaternized polyurethanes as antibacterial adhesives made by
polyaddition polymerization followed by quaternization for different time intervals. The …

The material design of vascular grafts is required for their application in the health sector.
The use of polyurethanes (PUs) in vascular grafts intended for application in the body …
