Neat network polyurethane SMP samples were fabricated based on a variation

of a composition specified by Wilson et al.45 in 2007, using stoichiometric ratios

of polyol and diisocyanate monomers. Triethanolamine was added in a 2.0%
excess (by mass). N,N,N,N-Tetrakis(2-hydroxypropyl)ethylenediamine (HPED,
98%) (TCI America, Portland, OR), triethanolamine (TEA 99.5%) (SigmaAldrich Co., St. Louis, MO) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI, 98%) (TCI
America, Portland, OR) were decanted in a precise basic controlled
atmosphere glove box (LabConco Corporation, Kansas City, Missouri) under a
dry air atmosphere into glass jars and were subsequently sealed.
