Abstract
Abstract Abstract of the Invention: Polyurethane diacrylate compositions are obtained by reacting a diacrylate in the presence of from about 30 to about 95 weight percent of a hydrophilic polyurethane resin. The resulting products will form a hydrogel upon immersion in water and are permeable to gases, ions and other low molecular weight species. The hydrophilic polyurethane diacrylate com-positions may be molded to form shaped products that are dimensionally stable after repeated exposure to boiling water and exhibit memory.
