Influence of Hard Segment Content and Diisocyanate Structure on the Transparency and Mechanical Properties of Poly(dimethylsiloxane)-Based Urea Elastomers for Biomedical Applications

The effect of hard segment content and diisocyanate structure on the transparency and mechanical properties of soft poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based urea elastomers (PSUs) was investigated. A series of PSU elastomers were synthesized from an aminopropyl-terminated PDMS (Mn: 16,300 g·mol⁻<sup&g...
