## Abstract Several strategies have been used to increase the biostability of medical‐grade polyurethanes while maintaining biocompatibility and mechanical properties. One approach is to chemically modify or replace the susceptible soft segment. Currently, poly(carbonate urethanes) (PCUs) are being

## Abstract **Summary:** In this work, we synthesized two MDI‐based polyurethanes, including a poly(ether)urethane (PEU) and a poly(carbonate)urethane (PCU), by using different soft segments, poly(tetramethylene oxide) and poly(hexyl, ethyl)carbonate diol ($\overline M$ ∼ 2 000). We demonstrated th

## Abstract This study used an __in vitro__ environment that simulated the microenvironment at the adherent cell‐material interface to reproduce and accelerate the biodegradation of poly(ether urethane) (PEU) and poly(carbonate urethane) (PCU). Polyurethane films were treated __in vitro__ for 24 da
