Abstract
Waterborne polyurethane (WPU) is a waterborne coating with excellent physicochemical properties. Its deficiencies of water resistance, chemical resistance, staining, and hardness have limited the wide application of polyurethane in the wood lacquer market. In this study, polycarbonate diols (PCDL) were used as soft segments and WPCU was modified by cross-linking using Trimethylolpropane (TMP) to prepare polycarbonate type WPU (WPCU) with cross-linked network structure. The new wood lacquer was prepared by adding various additives and tested by applying it on wood board. The successful synthesis of WPCU was determined by FTIR testing, and the cross-linking degree of WPCU was probed by low-field NMR. The viscosity of the cross-linked WPCU emulsion showed a decreasing trend compared to the uncross-linked WPCU emulsion, and WPCU-2 had the smallest particle size. Compared with the uncrosslinked WPCU film, the crosslinked WPCU film had lower water absorption (2.2%), higher water contact angle (72.7°), excellent tensile strength (44.02 MPa), higher thermomechanical, and better water and alcohol resistance. The effect of crosslinker content on the microphase separation of WPCU chain segments on the surface roughness of the film was investigated by SEM. The wood paint prepared by WPCU emulsion has good dry heat resistance, chemical resistance, and adhesion, and the hardness of the wood paint when the TMP content is 3% reaches H. It also has good resistance to sticky stains, which can be used to develop new wood lacquer.

Abstract
Orthopedic insoles is the most commonly used nonsurgical treatment method for the flatfoot. Polyurethane (PU) plays a crucial role in the manufacturing of orthopedic insoles due to its high wear resistance and elastic recovery. However, preparing orthopedic insoles with adjustable hardness, high-accuracy, and matches the plantar morphology is challenging. Herein, a liquid crystal display (LCD) three-dimensional (3D) printer was used to prepare the customized arch-support insoles based on photo-curable and elastic polyurethane acrylate (PUA) composite resins. Two kinds of photo-curable polyurethanes (DL1000-PUA and DL2000-PUA) were successfully synthesized, and a series of fast-photocuring polyurethane acrylate (PUA) composite resins for photo-polymerization 3D printing were developed. The effects of different acrylate monomers on the Shore hardness, viscosity, and mechanical properties of the PUA composite resins were evaluated. The PUA-3-1 composite resin exhibited low viscosity, optimal hardness, and mechanical properties. A deviation analysis was conducted to assess the accuracy of printed insole. Furthermore, the stress conditions of the PUA composite resin and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) under the weight load of healthy adults were compared by finite element analysis (FEA) simulation. The results demonstrated that the stress of the PUA composite resin and EVA were 0.152 MPa and 0.285 MPa, and displacement were 0.051 mm and 3.449 mm, respectively. These results indicate that 3D-printed arch-support insole based on photocurable PUA composite resin are high-accuracy, and can reduce plantar pressure and prevent insoles premature deformation, which show great potential in the physiotherapeutic intervention for foot disorders.
