Polyurethanes consisting of tri-functional homopolymer of hexamethylene diisocyanate (tri-HDI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) are synthesized, in which photo-reversible coumarin moieties act as pendant groups. Accordingly, the polyurethanes can be repeatedly self-healed under UV lights at room temperature by taking advantages of the photodimerization and photocleavage habits of coumarin. Molecular weight of the soft segment, PEG, is found to be closely related to the healing performance of the polyurethanes. Lower molecular weight PEG that corresponds to higher initial coumarin concentration in the polymer is critical for obtaining higher healing efficiency in the case of the first healing action. Nevertheless, it does not guarantee high reversibility of the photo-remendability during the repeated healing events. In contrast, the polyurethane with moderate molecular weight PEG has achieved balanced performance. Reaction kinetics is less important for the healing effect.
