Kim, J.H., T.J. Kang and W.R. Yu (2010), Simulation of mechanical behavior of temperature-responsive braided stents made of shape memory polyurethanes. Journal of Biomechanics, 43(4) pp. 632-643. [Pg.231]

Polyurethanes have been widely used in drug delivery systems. Kim et al. investigated the feasibility of developing a temperature-responsive braided stent using shape memory polyurethane (SMPU) through finite element analysis.The deployment process of the braided stents inside narrowed... [Pg.379]

These high energy species are extremely reactive, with themselves and with nucleophiles, and can generate runaway exotherms. With water, rapid evolution of carbon dioxide results. Some instances are reported [1]. A compound of this class was responsible for Bhopal, the worst chemical industry accident to date. Di-isocyanates are extensively employed, with polyols, to generate polyurethane polymers. The polymerisation temperature should be held below 180°C or decomposition may occur which, in the case of foams, may induce later autoignition. [Pg.2492]

Goo et al. investigated the actuation durability of a conducting shape memory polyurethane/MWNT (CSMPU) actuator and concluded that the number of cycles at breaking decreased, as the actuation temperature increased (108). The possible reason is that more material degradation of CSMPU can be induced due to rapid and large movement of polymer chains as the actuation temperature increases. For a CSMPU actuator, the authors confirmed that an actuation temperature that is higher than the transition temperature produces a rapid response but low durability. [Pg.165]

It is well known that conventional polyester-based urethane elastomers extended with butanediol can withstand continuous use temperatures of about 80 °C. At higher temperatures, a reduction in the physical and mechanical properties is seen due to degradation of the material. The thermal stability of the polyurethanes is related to the nature of the starting materials such as the aromatic diisocyanate and diol chain extender. The hard segment of the urethane elastomer is primarily responsible for temperature resistance, and the soft segment determines the material s performance at low temperature. [Pg.405]
