Abstract:

In this study, 2,2-propargyl-1,3-propanediol(DPPD) was synthesized and used as the chain extender for getting a biodegradable polyurethane(PU) containing alkynyl. The structure of the PU containing alkynyl is confirmed by the characteristic 1H NMR chemical shift at δ 2.03 and Fourier transform infrared spectrum(FTIR) absorption band at 2138 cm-1. When the DPPD chain extender and PU prepolymer were polymerized with the molar ratio of 1, 0.7 and 1(70%DPPD+30%1,3-propanediol), the obtained alkynyl grafting ratio were 0.396, 0.235 and 0.197 mmol/g, respectively. The “click” coupling of the PU alkynyl group with the model molecular benzyl azide is proved by the chemical shift at δ 7.91 of the 1H NMR test result. Cell viability experiments reveal that alkynyl grafted on the PU has no influence on the cells viability. This method provides a convenient way for bioactive modification of biodegradable polyurethane.
