The multiple‐furan monomer (PMPU–furan) was obtained from a functionalized prepolymer (polymeric MDI: PBA‐2000 = 2:1) by furfuryl amine. The structures of both the PMPU–furan and C‐PMPU–DA were characterized by attenuated total reflectance (ATR)–Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and 1H‐NMR. The Diels–Alder bonds enabled C‐PMPU–DA thermal reversibility, which was investigated by ATR–FTIR spectroscopy, 1H‐NMR, gel–solution–gel experiments, and viscosity tests. Meanwhile, the self‐healing properties of C‐PMPU–DA were also investigated by the recovery of the mechanical properties. The results showed that C‐PMPU–DA exhibited good thermal reversibility and self‐healing properties. C‐PMPU–DA exhibited thermosetting properties at room temperature, although it exhibited thermoplastic properties at higher temperatures and may find applications in self‐healing materials, recyclable materials, or removable materials. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
