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.
