Popis: Segmented polyurethanes (SPU) were synthesized with Pluronic F127 (PLU) as soft segment and 4,4′-methylene-bis(cyclohexyl) diisocyanate (HMDI) and Metformin (Met) as rigid segment (HMDI-Met) while antidiabetic content increased by using 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% of rigid segments. The Met incorporation was provided by FTIR, Raman, NMR, and XPS. By increasing the content of rigid segments, the first decomposition temperature tends to increase from 317 °C to 361 °C while Tg was modified from −80 °C to −50 °C. Mass loss was observed during accelerated degradation and therefore SPU-PLU-Met can deliver up to 40 µg/30 days of Met. Cytotoxicity test showed no deleterious effect.
