Description
Summary:Because of the significant advantages of bone adhesives compared with traditional mechanical fixation, many scholars have studied polyurethane bone adhesives. However, polyurethane will release a lot of heat in the reaction process, producing high temperature. The high temperature does not only easily cause a human discomfort but also will destroy the tissue structure of human. In this paper, a new polyurethane composite based on phase transition materials and hydroxyapatite is prepared to reduce released heat for application in bone binder. The mechanical properties, adhesive strength, and released heat‐induced temperature of polyurethane composite are investigated in detail. It exhibits good viscoelastic performance with a large elastic deformation (>30%) and good adhesive strength (>0.2 MPa). Furthermore, the released heat of polyurethane composite is effectively reduced, in which the temperature drastically decreases from 110.4 to 41.8°C. The work does not only confirm formation of high‐performance bone binder but also provides a new method to reduce released heat of polyurethane for various applications. Phase transition materials induced temperature drop.
