Physico-mechanical characterization of polyurethane foam dressings containing natural polyols

摘要

Advanced wound dressings are replaced traditional dressings in order to provide appropriate environment for healing and also to promote cell migration[1].The key characteristics of wound dressings are non-toxic,highly absorbed,air permeable,biocompatible and have good mechanical properties[2].Due to providing moist environment and also protecting maceration at the wound edge area,foam dressings are used in various clinical applications[3].They are mostly prepared from polyurethane between polyols and isocyanate polymerization.
