New shape memory polymer compositions, methods for synthesizing new shape memory polymers, and apparatus comprising an actuator and a shape memory polymer wherein the shape memory polymer comprises at least a portion of the actuator. A shape memory polymer comprising a polymer composition which physically forms a network structure wherein the polymer composition has shape-memory behavior and can be formed into a permanent primary shape, re-formed into a stable secondary shape, and controllably actuated to recover the permanent primary shape. Polymers have optimal aliphatic network structures due to minimization of dangling Chains by using monomers that are symmetrical and that have matching amine and hydroxl groups providing polymers and polymer foams with clarity, tight (narrow temperature range) single transitions, and high shape recovery and recovery force that are especially useful for implanting in the human body.

The present invention relates to a composition for topically delivering SDF-1 into the brain, in which the composition comprises a dual ionic pH-sensitive copolymer and a nerve regeneration and protective factor. In the present invention, when a dual ionic pH-sensitive copolymer containing SDF-1 as a nerve regeneration and protective factor is applied to a patient suffering from ischemic stroke as a drug carrier, it induces the effective delivery of the treatment factor to a topical lesion site, and moreover, the risk factors for adverse effects may be cancelled out, so that it can be effectively used as a novel therapeutic agent for ischemic brain diseases.

An object of the present invention is to provide a polyurethane composition, in which reduction in the strength of the foam is suppressed when the foam has been greatly deformed. The present invention relates to a polyurethane composition comprising a base resin and a curing agent, wherein the base resin comprises a compound (A-1) comprising a polyalkylene skeleton comprising neither an aromatic skeleton nor an alicyclic skeleton, and having two or more functional groups having an active hydrogen atom, a compound (A-2) comprising an aromatic skeleton and/or alicyclic skeleton, and having two or more functional groups having an active hydrogen atom, a blowing agent (B), and an amine-based catalyst (C); a polyurethane foam therefrom; and a method for soundproofing and reinforcing a vehicle.
