A number of polyurethanes were synthesized by reacting castor oil with hexamethylene diisocyanate, varying the NCO/OH ratio. The polyurethanes were reacted with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) to prepare the interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) using benzoyl peroxide as the initiator and ethy
