Results on the solubility parameters of chitin and chitosan presented in the paper DOI: 10.1016/S0144-8617(98)00020-4 were recalculated and data evaluation was redone. A number of misprints, erroneous calculations and data evaluations were found with respect to Hansen as well as total solubility parameters as derived according to group contribution methods by Hoftyzer-Van Krevelen and Hoy's system. Revised numerical data are presented.

This article contains data on the synthesis and mechanical characterization of polysiloxane-based urea-elastomers (PSUs) and is related to the research article entitled "Influence of PDMS molecular weight on transparency and mechanical properties of soft polysiloxane-urea-elastomers for intraocular lens application" (Riehle et al., 2018) [1]. These elastomers were prepared by a two-step polyaddition using the aliphatic diisocyanate 4,4'-Methylenbis(cyclohexylisocyanate) (HMDI), a siloxane-based chain extender 1,3-Bis(3-aminopropyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane (APTMDS) and amino-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) or polydimethyl-methyl-phenyl-siloxane-copolymers (PDMS-Me,Ph), respectively. (More details about the synthesis procedure and the reaction scheme can be found in the related research article (Riehle et al., 2018) [1]). Amino-terminated polydimethylsiloxanes with varying molecular weights and PDMS-Me,Ph-copolymers were prepared prior by a base-catalyzed ring-chain equilibration of a cyclic siloxane and the endblocker APTMDS. This DiB article contains a procedure for the synthesis of the base catalyst tetramethylammonium-3-aminopropyl-dimethylsilanolate and a generic synthesis procedure for the preparation of a PDMS having a targeted number average molecular weight  of 3000 g mol. Molecular weights and the amount of methyl-phenyl-siloxane within the polysiloxane-copolymers were determined by H NMR and Si NMR spectroscopy. The corresponding NMR spectra and data are described in this article. Additionally, this DiB article contains processed data on  and  FTIR-ATR spectroscopy, which was used to follow the reaction progress of the polyaddition by showing the conversion of the diisocyanate. All relevant IR band assignments of a polydimethylsiloxane-urea spectrum are described in this article. Finally, data on the tensile properties and the mechanical hysteresis-behaviour at 100% elongation of PDMS-based polyurea-elastomers are shown in dependence to the PDMS molecular weight.
