Biodegradable, Amorphous Copolyester‐Urethane Networks Having Shape‐Memory Properties
Open accessAbstract
In great shape: Star-shaped telechelic oligomers can be coupled with a junction unit to yield amorphous copolyester-urethane networks, which are not only biodegradable but can also be fixed in a new, temporary shape after they have been processed into a permanent shape. The permanent shape can be recovered by heating (see picture). Such polymer networks may find application in ophthalmology.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
