AB  - In this work, the physicochemical and blood compatibility properties of prepared 
      PU/Bio oil nanocomposites were investigated. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) 
      studies revealed the reduction of mean fiber diameter (709 +/- 211 nm) compared to 
      the pristine PU (969 nm +/- 217 nm). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) 
      analysis exposed the characteristic peaks of pristine PU. Composite peak 
      intensities were decreased insinuating the interaction of the bio oilTM with the 
      PU. Contact angle analysis portrayed the hydrophobic nature of the fabricated 
      patch compared to pristine PU. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) depicted the 
      better thermal stability of the novel nanocomposite patch and its different 
      thermal behavior in contrast with the pristine PU. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) 
      analysis revealed the increase in the surface roughness of the composite patch. 
      Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) signified 
      the novel nanocomposite patch ability in reducing the thrombogenicity and 
      promoting the anticoagulant nature. Finally the hemolytic percentage of the 
      fabricated composite was in the acceptable range revealing its safety and 
      compatibility with the red blood cells. To reinstate, the fabricated patch 
      renders promising physicochemical and blood compatible nature making it a new 
      putative candidate for wound healing application.
