Abstract:Biodegradable shape memory polymers are promising biomaterials for stents used in minimally invasive surgical procedures such as intestinal stents. Herein, a series of biodegradable shape memory polyurethanes (SMPUs) containing a novel phenylalanine‐derived chain extender (PHP) are synthesized. Inspired by the fact that the function of biomacromolecules such as proteins is rich and varied because of the multiple combinations of the amino acid in highly evolved biosystems, this study finds that the sequence dis… Show more
“…13). 43 The carbon black was introduced into the SMPU to provide photothermal-induced shape recovery properties to the PU. In order to enhance the compatibility between SMPU and carbon black, the surface of carbon black was oxidized to increase the carboxyl content, which was conducive to the dispersion of carbon black in SMPU solution in the DMF and SMPU membrane matrix.…”

“…81 Herein, Yang et al (2022) reported a biodegradable PU with NIR light-induced photothermal responsive shape memory property, as a potential implantable material for intestinal stents. 43 A novel chain extender phenylalanine (PHP) derivative with two chymotrypsin cleavage sites was first synthesized. 82 The SMPU was prepared by reacting HDI, PCL-4000 diol, PHP chain extender, and oxidized carbon black (OCB) as photothermal agent (Fig.…”

“…Meanwhile, OCB also acted as a filler distributed uniformly in SMPU, which restricted the movement of the chain segments and increased the T g of the soft segments. 43,83 The T g is a critical parameter that influences various aspects of material performances in biomedical devices, such as mechanical properties, shape memory performance, and processing conditions.…”

“…2 Due to the good biocompatibility and designability of their chemical structure, shape memory polyurethanes (SMPUs) have potential applications in biomedical devices, especially self-expanding vascular stents. [3][4][5][6][7][8] However, vascular stents made of SMPs or SMPUs are generally confronted with a significant reduction in radial support after shape recovery and are even insufficient to support the narrow parts. 9 When used in vivo, the switching phases of SMPUs are always stiff below the transition temperature (T trans ) but they become flexible to facilitate the shape recovery accompanied by the reduction of stiffness when heated to reach the T trans , 10 and the modulus is dramatically declined in a 37 1C aqueous environment due to the strong plasticization of water.…”
