Abstract: Aspects herein relate to biocompatible polyisobutylene-fiber composite materials and related methods. In one aspect a biocompatible composite material is included. The biocompatible composite material can include a network of fibers comprising one or more polymers to form a substrate and a continuous polyisobutylene matrix that is non-porous and completely surrounds the electrospun fibers. Other aspects are included herein.

Abstract: A method for making a polyisobutylene diol from a polyisobutylene diallyl. The method includes hydroborating the polyisobutylene diallyl to produce a polyisobutylene dialkyl borane, and oxidizing the polyisobutylene dialkyl borane to form the polyisobutylene diol. The polyisobutylene diallyl is hydroborated by combining in situ the polyisobutylene diallyl with a borane-coordinating solvent, an alkaline metal salt of borohydride, and an acid. The alkaline metal salt of borohydride is combined with the polyisobutylene diallyl before the acid is combined with the polyisobutylene diallyl.

Abstract: A method for making a device including a polyisobutylene-polyurethane block copolymer. The method includes polymerizing a polyisobutylene diol, a diisocyanate, and a chain extender within a solvent system to form a polyisobutylene-polyurethane block copolymer solution, depositing the polyisobutylene-polyurethane block copolymer solution onto at least a portion of the device, and evaporating the solvent system from the deposited polyisobutylene-polyurethane block copolymer solution.
