In the present work, polyurethane membranes were prepared through sol-gel reaction of trimethoxysilane end-functionalized polyurethane prepolymer and aniline tetramer. The physical and mechanical properties of these membrane were fully investigated and related to their structure. Through evaluation of the interaction with fibroblast cells, the ability of these electroconductive membranes for enhancing wound healing process was confirmed.
