- each segment being produced by combining with repeat units of A,B,C and D of the formula: ##STR29## wherein R.sup.1 is a skeleton of a disocyanate and the three R.sup.1 's in each of the segments A-B, A-C and A-D can be the same or different;
- aza is a group of the formula: ##STR30## wherein Y.sup.1 and Y.sup.2 which can be the same or different, are oxygen, imino (--NH--) or a group of the formula:
- *R.sup.6 --O, *R.sup.6 --NH, O--R.sup.6 --O, *NHCO--R.sup.6 --NH or *CONH--R.sub.6 --NH;
- wherein
- R.sup.6 C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 is alkylene and an atom or the end of the group, marked by * is bonded to phenyl ring;
- R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 each are, independently, hydrogen, halogen, nitro or phenyl;
- R.sup.2 is polyoxyalkylene glycol or diamine residue;
- Z is oxygen or imino and the two Z's are the same;
- R.sup.3 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene or a group of the formula: ##STR31## wherein R.sup.7 and R.sup.8, which can be the same or different, are C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene; and
- R.sup.9 is alkyl; each segment of the polyurethane being contained in the aforementioned proportion, is combined by block-type, random-type or a combination thereof.
- 2. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is C.sub.4 -C.sub.8 alkylene, or a divalent group of a benzene or cyclohexyl, both of which may be unsubstituted or substituted by one to four methyl groups, and may be linked to the cyanate residues either directly or via one of the methyl groups.
- 3. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of (CH.sub.2).sub.4, (CH.sub.2).sub.6, CH.sub.2 C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH(CH.sub.3)CH.sub.2, (CH.sub.2).sub.8, ##STR32##
- 4. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of hexamethylene, xylylene and 3,5,5-trimethylcyclohexan-1-yl-3-ylmethyl.
- 5. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein aza is a group of the formula: ##STR33## wherein Y.sup.1 and Y.sup.2 which can be the same or different, are oxygen, imino or a group of the formula: *R.sup.6 --O or *R.sup.6 --NH (in which R.sup.6 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylene) and R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are hydrogen.
- 6. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.2 is a polymer residue of C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 oxyalkylene glycol or diamine.
- 7. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sub.3 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene or a group of the formula: R.sup.7 --O--R.sup.8 in which R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 can be the same or different, are C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene.
- 8. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein the proportion of segments, A-B:A-C is in the molar ratio less than 0.6:more than 0.4:A-B:A-D is in the molar ratio less than 0.2:more than 0.8; and A-B:A-C:A-D is in the molar ratio less than 0.2:less than 0.1:more than 0.7.
- 9. A polyurethane according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is a group of the formula: ##STR34## and the three R.sup.1 's in each of segments A-B, A-C and A-D are the same, aza is a group of the formula: ##STR35## R.sup.2 is polyoxyethylene glycol residue and R.sup.3 is 1,2-propylene.
- 10. A pharmaceutical adjuvant containing a polyurethane as claimed in claim 1 as a main component.
