Styrenic thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) consist of styrenic blocks. They are connected with other soft segments by a covalent linkage and are widely used in human life. However, in biomedical applications, TPEs need to be chemically hydrogenated in advance to enhance their properties such as strong UV/ozone resistance and thermal-oxidative stability. In this study, films composed of sulfonated hydrogenated TPEs were evaluated. Hydrogenated tert-butyl styrene–styrene–isoprene block copolymers were synthesized and selectively sulfonated to different degrees by reaction with acetyl sulfate. By controlling the ratio of the hydrogenated tert-butyl styrene–styrene–isoprene block copolymer and acetyl sulfate, sulfonated films were optimized to demonstrate sufficient mechanical integrity in water as well as good biocompatibility. The thermal plastic sulfonated films were found to be free of cytotoxicity and platelet-compatible and could be potential candidates in biomedical film applications such as wound dressings.

Hydrophilic Polyurethane

Multiphase, segmented polyurethanes with mixed soft segment phase were prepared from 4,4’- diphenylmethane diisocyanate (Pure MDI), polybutylene adipate (glycol) 2000 (PBA2000) and polyethylene glycol 1000 (PEG1000) with 1,4-butanediol (BDO) as the chain extender. Further more, the relationships between domain separation structure, crystallizability of soft segment and moisture permeability, hydrophilic property, phase inversion temperature (PIT) of the polyurethanes were investigated. The studies show that the chemical structure, concentration of hydrophilic soft monomers and the microphase separation degree of the mixed soft segments from hard segment domain have remarkable effects on the application properties of polyurethane.

Abstract Three series of segmented polyurethanes with different soft segment lengths and concentrations were examined by TMA, DMA, and mechanical methods. Maximum tensile strengths were obtained when ssc was 40–50%, which was explained by a specific interlocking morphology. No significant effect of soft-segment chain length on maximum strength was found, but higher values were found in the C series when ssc was 60%. Elongation at break increases linearly with ssc but indications that shorter soft segments produce higher extensions was attributed to plastic flow. TMA showed that Tg was independent of ssc in the C and, to a degree, in the B series, while temperature of α-transition in DMA was independent of ssc only in the C series at ssc above 50%.

Three series of segmented polyurethane block copolymers were synthesized using 4,4′-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) or 1,3-bis(4-hydroxybutyl)tetramethyl disiloxane (BHTD) as the hard segments, and soft segments composed of poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS)-based and poly(hexamethylene oxide) (PHMO) macrodiols. Copolymers synthesized with the PDMS macrodiol and PDMS and PHMO macrodiol mixtures consist of three microphases: a PDMS phase, hard domains, and a mixed phase of PHMO (when present), PDMS ether end-group segments and some dissolved hard segments. Degrees of phase separation were characterized using small-angle X-ray scattering by applying a pseudo two-phase model, and the morphology resulting from unlike segment demixing was found to be closely related to the in vitro oxidative biostability of these segmented polyurethanes.

Long Chain

New segmented polyurethanes containing phospholipid moieties in the main chains and long-chain alkyl groups in the side chains were synthesized. The soft segments used in this study were poly(butadiene), poly(isoprene), hydrogenated poly(isoprene), and poly(1,6-hexyl-1,2-ethylcarbonate) diol. The hard segments of these polyurethanes were 4,4′-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate, bis[2-(2-hydroxyethyldimethylammonio)ethyl]2-cetyl- 1,3-propanediphosphate, and 1,4-butanediol. The blood compatibilities of the new polymers were evaluated by platelet-rich plasma contact studies and viewed by scanning electron microscopy using medical grade BioSpan® and nonphospholipid polyurethane as references. These new materials have good surfaces in terms of platelet adhesion, and the morphology of adhered platelets undergoes a relatively low degree of variation.
