Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical materials, and in particular to a polyurethane material for a medical infusion set and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the development of materials science, some artificial synthetic polymer materials such as polyurethane, polyester fiber, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyetheretherketone, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl alcohol, polylactic acid, polyethylene, as well as natural biopolymer materials cellulose, hyaluronic acid, collagen, gelatin and sodium alginate, have been used in the medical field to manufacture pharmaceutical preparations, medical devices, in vitro organs, artificial organs, etc. In most cases, the chemical composition and properties of existing materials cannot meet the requirements and need to be processed to have good mechanical properties and processability as well as good biocompatibility.

[0003] Patent CN108276556B discloses a medical polyurethane material, a preparation method thereof and a repair stent. The medical polyurethane material includes gastrodin and has good biocompatibility, blood compatibility and biostability. When used in the body, it can effectively avoid side effects such as rejection reactions and is more stable and safe. The repair stent prepared with the material has excellent mechanical properties, is not easy to damage, has a wide range of applicability, and can be used for the repair of bones, blood vessels or nerves. Although gastrodin can be used to treat neurological diseases such as vertigo and convulsions, people who do not have such diseases may experience side effects such as drowsiness and mental depression when using such materials.

[0004] Patent CN105418953B discloses a method for modifying phosphorylcholine on the surface of a medical polyurethane material. A clean and dry medical polyurethane material is pretreated by ozone activation to obtain active reaction sites on the surface, and then surface grafting is performed in a phosphorylcholine reaction solution to obtain a medical polyurethane material with phosphorylcholine modified on the surface. By using this bionic functionalized medical polyurethane material, the surface hydrophilicity is significantly improved, and it has good tissue compatibility and blood compatibility. However, phosphorylcholine has strong water absorption and the material is not easy to store.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market for a medical polyurethane material that has no side effects and is easy to store. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to obtain a polyurethane material that can be used for medical infusion sets and has no side effects, is easy to store, and has good biocompatibility and mechanical properties.

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0008] On the one hand, the present invention provides a polyurethane material for a medical infusion set, which comprises the following raw materials, in parts by weight: 30-40 parts of polyol, 10-16 parts of polyisocyanate, 2-6 parts of modified polylactic acid, 0.5-1 parts of chain extender, 0.01-0.0.05 parts of catalyst, and 1-4 parts of toughening agent.

[0009] In some embodiments, the preparation method of the modified polylactic acid comprises the following steps: adding amino-terminated polylactic acid, vegetable oil, (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone and sodium ethoxide to anhydrous ethanol, reacting at 70-80° C. for 5-6 hours, and rotary evaporating to obtain modified polylactic acid.

[0010] Polylactic acid has good degradability and biocompatibility. It can be added to polyurethane to improve the problem of poor biocompatibility of polyurethane. However, due to the poor compatibility of polylactic acid and polyurethane, the mechanical properties of the material prepared by direct blending are uneven. The present invention modifies polylactic acid by reacting terminal amino polylactic acid, vegetable oil and (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone, and adds it to the chain segment of polyurethane to increase the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of polyurethane. The possible reason is that polylactic acid has good biocompatibility and the brittleness of the modified polylactic acid is reduced, so that the mechanical properties of the prepared polyurethane are increased and the comfort of contact with the human body is enhanced. In addition, the vegetable oil increases the lubrication effect and the processability, and the lactone ring further reduces the glass transition temperature of polylactic acid and increases the toughness.

[0011] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the amino-terminated polylactic acid, the vegetable oil and the (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone is 1:(2-3):(0.3-0.7).

[0012] The present invention improves the brittleness of polylactic acid and its compatibility with polyurethane by limiting the mass ratio of amino-terminated polylactic acid, vegetable oil and (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone, while increasing the processability, thereby avoiding the problem of easy adhesion of catheters obtained from polyurethane materials prepared by excessive vegetable oil.

[0013] In some embodiments, the vegetable oil is one or more of linseed oil, olive oil, and camellia oil.

[0014] In some embodiments, the toughening agent is modified silica and chitosan, and the mass ratio of the two is 1:(2-4).

[0015] In some embodiments, the method for preparing the modified silicon dioxide comprises the following steps:

[0016] (1) adding silica and silane coupling agent KH560 into ethanol and reacting at 70-80° C. for 5-6 hours to obtain silane-modified silica;

[0017] (2) Add the silane-modified silica, hyaluronic acid and phosphoric acid obtained in step (1) into DMF and react at 70-80° C. for 5-6 hours to obtain modified silica.

[0018] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the silane-modified silica to hyaluronic acid is 1:(0.4-0.8).

[0019] In order to further increase the mechanical properties of polyurethane, the applicant added modified silica and chitin in a specific ratio to polyurethane as toughening agents, but the dispersibility of silica was poor and the toughening effect was not good. The present invention modified silica with a specific silane coupling agent and then reacted it with hyaluronic acid, thereby increasing the dispersibility of silica, stabilizing the mechanical properties of the prepared polyurethane material and further increasing the biocompatibility. The possible reason is that the addition of hyaluronic acid makes the surface of silica have a large number of groups that can react with polyurethane, increasing the degree of cross-linking, further improving the mechanical properties of polyurethane while increasing biocompatibility, and being non-toxic and harmless to the human body.

[0020] In some embodiments, the chain extender is 1,6-hexanediol or 1,8-octanediol.

[0021] In some embodiments, the polyisocyanate is 4,4'-phenylmethane diisocyanate or L-lysine diisocyanate.

[0022] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a polyurethane material for a medical infusion set, comprising the following steps: reacting a polyol, a polyisocyanate, and a catalyst at 70-80°C for 3-4 hours, then adding modified polylactic acid, a chain extender, and a toughening agent to react at 50-60°C for 1-2 hours, and drying to obtain the obtained material.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] (1) The polyurethane material prepared by the present invention has good compatibility with humans and is not easily repelled. It also has good mechanical properties and a high sense of use.

[0025] (2) The present invention modifies polylactic acid by reacting terminal amino polylactic acid, vegetable oil and (S)-3-hydroxy-gamma-butyrolactone. The brittleness of the modified polylactic acid is reduced, the mechanical properties of the prepared polyurethane are improved, and the comfort of contact with the human body is enhanced. In addition, the vegetable oil increases the lubrication effect and the processability, and the lactone ring further reduces the glass transition temperature of the polylactic acid and increases the toughness.

[0026] (3) The present invention improves the dispersibility of silica by modifying silica with a specific silane coupling agent and then reacting it with hyaluronic acid. The addition of hyaluronic acid makes the surface of silica have a large number of groups that can react with polyurethane, which increases the degree of cross-linking, further improves the mechanical properties of polyurethane and increases biocompatibility, making it non-toxic and harmless to the human body.

The films were cut into dumbbell-shaped film strips according to GB1040-92 and tested using a universal testing machine. The tensile rate at room temperature was 200 mm / min.

[0067] 2. Hemolysis test

[0068] Take 20 mL of human blood, add 1 mL of 2 wt% K2C2O4 solution to prepare fresh anticoagulated blood, take 10 mL of anticoagulated blood and add 10 mL of 0.9 wt% NaCl solution to dilute to obtain diluted human blood; weigh 5 g of the polyurethane material obtained in each embodiment and comparative example, add 10 ml of normal saline, place in a 37°C constant temperature water bath for 30 min, add 0.5 mL of diluted human blood and continue to keep warm for 60 min, then centrifuge at 1000 r / min for 5 min, remove the supernatant and measure the absorbance at 545 nm, and measure 3 times in parallel for each group;

[0069] Positive control: no polyurethane material was added, and 10 ml of normal saline was replaced with 10 ml of distilled water;

[0070] Negative control: no polyurethane material was added, and 10 ml of normal saline was replaced with 10 ml of 0.9 wt% NaCl solution;
