Polyurethane (PU) is widely used as a cardiovascular biomaterial due to its good mechanical properties and hemocompatibility, but it is not adhesive to endothelial cells (ECs). Cell adhesive peptides, GRGDS and YIGSR, were found to promote adhesion and spreading of ECs and showed a synergistic effect when both of them were used. In this study, a surface modification was designed to fabricate an EC-active PU surface capable of promoting endothelialization using the peptides and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) spacer, The modified PU surfaces were characterized in vitro. The density of the grafted PEG on the PU surface was measured by acid-base back titration to the terminal-free isocyanate groups. The successful immobilization of pep tides was confirmed by amino acid analysis, following hydrolysis, and contact angle measurement. The uniform distribution of peptides on the surface was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). To evaluate the EC adhesive property, cell viability test using human umbilical vein EC (HUVEC) was investigated in vitro and enhanced endothelialization was characterized by the introduction of cell adhesive peptides, GRGDS and YIGSR, and PEG spacer. Therefore, GRGDS and YIGSR co-immobilized PU surfaces can be applied to an EC-specific vascular graft with long-term patency by endothelialization.

In this study, 2-hedroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) was graft synthesized on water-dispersed polyurethane using polytetramethylene ether glycoll (PTMG), and then the film of resin was prepared and the physical properties of polyurethane resin were measured. The mechanical properties of the synthesized polyurethane resin were measured by using FT-IR, UTM, adhesion performance measuring instrument. As a result of tensile strength measurement, the tensile strength of HPUD4 with high 2-HEMA content was increased to $5.05kgf/mm^2$, the elongation was measured as 285% of the HPUD1 sample not containing 2-HEMA and adhesive strength of HPUD4 sample was measured at 9.1 sec to 635 psi.

Silver nanowires (AgNWs) intrinsically possess high conductivity, ductility, and network structure percolated in a low density, which have led to many advanced applications of transparent and flexible electronics. Most of these applications require patterning of AgNWs, for which photolithographic and printing-based techniques have been widely used. However, several drawbacks such as high cost and complexity of the process disturb its practical application with patterning AgNWs. Herein, we propose a novel method for the patterning of AgNWs by employing UV-curable adhesive tape with a structure of liner/adhesive layer/polyolefin (PO) film and UV irradiation to simplify the process. First, the UV-curable adhesive tape was attached to AgNWs/polyurethane (PU), and then selectively exposed to UV irradiation by using a photomask. Subsequently, the UV-curable adhesive tape was peeled off and consequently AgNWs were patterned on PU substrate. This facile method is expected to be applicable to the fabrication of a variety of low-cost, shape-deformable transparent and wearable devices.

In this study, we investigated the adhesive strength by molecular weight, mixture ratio, coating thickness, lamination temperature and aging condition of adhesive in manufacture process of Nylon-Aluminum for secondary aluminum pouch. It found that as the molecular weight of adhesive gets lower, the adhesive strength increases. In the mixture ratio, as the content of hardener get higher and as the content of solvent get lower, the adhesive strength increases. Also, as the coating thickness of adhesive get thicker, the adhesive strength increase. In addition, the adhesive strength is higher at 90 degrees of lamination temperature. So, it found that 90 degrees of lamination temperature is appropriate. In the aging condition when aged for 5 days, it found that the reaction and curing of adhesive is sufficient by measuring the adhesive strength.

To investigate the adhesion effect of various kinds and contents of polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanates (pMDIs) on adhesion performance, wood adhesives (A-1~5) were synthesized and characterized. As results, when the amount of pMDI increased in adhesives, the dry tensile strength was found to be proportionally increased sustaining at around $16.0{\sim}21.6kgf/cm^2$. The polyurethane (PU) resin, which used M11S as a source of pMDI showed the best wet tensile strength at $11.9kgf/cm^2$ and cyclic boil tensile strength at $8.1kgf/cm^2$, which satisfied the requirement of over $7kgf/cm^2$. Thermal properties of the rice powder (RP) based polyurethane resins were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Thermal stability of polyurethane resins increased to $250^{\circ}C$ with adding pMDIs. The more pMDI (M5S) was added to adhesive, the higher thermal stability of the resin was observed by TGA.

In this study, the polyurethane acrylates (PUA) resin with good adhesive and flexibility for adhesive for shoes and clothing were synthesized using that poly(tetramethylene adiphate glycol) (PTAd), poly(tetramethylene ether glycol) (PTMG) as polyester polyol and polyether polyol respectively, including 4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), 1,4-butandiol (1,4-BD), 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) and dibutyl amine (DBA). The effect of polyol blend in the polyurethane acrylate on thermal and mechanical properties, adhesion strength and flexural strength were studied. The glass transition temperature (T_g) of PUA was confirmed in range of -70~-40 ℃. In addition, the glass transition temperature (T_g), decomposition temperature (T_d), tensile strength adhesion strength and heat resistance were increased as increasing of PTAd amount while the elongation, water resistance and flexural properties were decreased. The synthesized polyurethane acrylate with 5:5 ratio of PTAd and PTMG indicated the highest adhesion strength and flexural properties.

In order to improve the water resistance, we synthesized waterborne polyurethane by using polyester polyol, poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC), 4,4'-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate ($H_{12}MDI$), and dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA). The properties of the synthesized waterborne polyurethane using poly(propylene carbonate) (WPUP) were evaluated by FT-IR, $^1H-NMR$, GPC, DSC, TGA, and UTM. The mechanical properties increased while the adhesion properties decreased with the increase in the amount of PPC. The highest water resistance was shown when the ratio of polyester polyol to PPC was 9:1.

Polyurethane resin was especially mixed with polybutadiene rubbers which had each other different molecular structures and functional groups. Liquid and cure properties were tested experimentally for mixtures. Viscosity of mixtures and drying time were influenced by solubility of thinner and reactivity of rubber. Adhesive strength represented maxium at rubber content $15{\times}22%$ (Wt. % ), and rapidly decreased over 25%. DBTDL(di-n-butyltindilaurate) showed the longest stroage stability.
