Cross-linked polyurethaneurea films based on polyoxytetramethylene glycol and polyoxypropylene glycol with toluene diisocyanate and 3,3 -dichloro-4,4 -diaminodiphenylmethane were synthesized in a solutionwhere the solvent evaporates during the polymerization. FT-Raman and FTIR spectra were analysed and intermolecular force constants of hydrogen bonds were calculated. On the basis of the intensity of the Raman and IR spectral lines, which reflects hydrogen bond formation, the optimum structure of hydrogen bonds and the conformations of macromolecules of polyurethaneurea were observed for the solvent ethyl acetate.

A coating of polyurethaneurea was made from a solution on the surface of metal stents. The influence of cleaning, etching, chemical and ion beam modification (plasma immersion ion implantation) of the metal surface on the adhesion strength of the polyurethaneurea was analysed. Polyurethaneurea films imbedded with tantalum particles as a radiopaque filler maintained their strength and elasticity and produced clear X-ray contrast images of vascular stents.
