%X A series of polyurethane elastomers (PUEs) were
synthesized from an aromatic diisocyanate (4,</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">4¡¯-diphenylmethane diisocyanate); a polyether polyol
(polytetramethylene glycol, molecular weight: 1000), polyester polyol (poly-caprolactonediol,
molecular weight: 1000, or polycarbonate diol, molecular weight:</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">1000); and </span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">¦Â</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">-cyclodextrin (</span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">¦Â</span></i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">-CD) as a cross-linker. The effect of the polyol on the
morphologies and chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the resultant</span></span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><i><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">¦Â</span></i><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">-CD-based PUEs were investigated in this study. The
obtained films were characterized via solubility and swellin</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"></span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">g tests (chemical properties),
differential scanning calorimetry (crystallinity degree), dynamic mechanical
analysi</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">s (thermal stability), thermogravimetric analysis (thermal stability),
tensile testing (mechanical properties), nuclear magnetic resonance
spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (morphology),
contact angle determination (morphology), and scanning electron microscopy
(morphology).
