简介：Aseriesofuncharged,anionic,cationic,andheparinizedpolyetherurethanes(PEUs)wassynthesized.ThesoftsegmentsofthesePEUswererespectivelyobtainedbypolyte-tramethyleneoxideofmolecularweight1000(PTMO-1000),polythyleneglycolofmolecularweight1000(PEG-1000),PEG-4000,andthemixtureofPEG-4000withPTMO-1000orPEG-1000.Thehardsegmentsconsistedof4,4’-methylenediphenylenediisocyanate(MDI)whichwasextendedwithethylenediamie(ED),1,4Mbutanediol(BD),N-methyldiethanolamine(MDEA),orL-Sodiumα,ε-diaminocaproate(SDAC),respectively.ThechemicalstructureofdifferentPEUswasconfirmedbynuclearmagneticresonance.Waterabsorptionsweremeasured.Theresultsshowedthattheionic,heparinizedPEUs,andthePEUscontainedPEG-4000assoftsegmentshavehigherwaterabsorptionsthanordinaryPEUs.ThePEUsbasedmainlyonPEG-4000assoftsegmentsareakindofhighhydroscopicpolymermate-rials,andtheirhydroscopicityincreaseswithPEG-4000insoftsegment.
