Thermoanalytical investigations of polyurethanes for medical purposes
Two types of laboratory synthesized polyurethanes (PU), for medical application, were investigated using the DSC method. Each PU was tested with, and without, additional purification. Commercial polyurethanes were also studied for comparison. It was found that the applied purification process influences the morphology of the polyurethanes. Changes were especially observed in the short- and long-order regions of the polymer matrix.
