Original Abstract

Polyurethane elastomers with potential in regenerative medicine were synthesized by solvent free method using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(caprolactone) (PCL) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI). Different diol hydrophilic (PEG) to hydrophobic (PCL) content ratios of 7:3, 1:1 and 3:7 were used. Samples made of one type of diol, either hydrophilic PEG or hydrophobic PCL, were synthesized as well. Influence of the composition on the mechanical and degradable properties was compared in this contribution.
