Synthesis and Investigation of Properties of Biocompatible Polyurethane Acrylate Based Nanocomposites/Cellulose Nanocrystals, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Shojaei, Akbar (Supervisor) ; Salkhi, Samaneh (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Bio-based shape memory polymers with fast-response have high potential for use in medical applications. In this study, biocompatible and biodegradable nanocomposites based on shape memory polyurethane acrylates (SMPUA)/cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), were synthesized by in-situ polymerization. CNC is a natural and renewable nanoparticle that has been considered for medical applications due to its excellent mechanical and biological properties and surface chemistry. At the first phase of this study, in order to synthesize UV-curable shape memory polyurethane acrylate, polycaprolactone diol (PCL-Diol), hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) were used as an reactive...
