Development of bio-based foam from Ximenia americana seed oil polyol: Studies on the effect of toluene diisocyanate (TDI) on some properties of the foamBy S. I. Okoye, S. A. Osemeahon
Abstract: Polyurethane foam is a very important and valuable industrial product. In this study, polyol synthesized from Ximenia americana seed oil was used in the production of bio-based polyurethane foam. Different amounts (2mL, 4mL, 6mL, 8mL and 10mL) of toluene diisocyanate (TDI) were used in the formulation of the foams, and the effect of the varied amount of TDI was investigated by studying the foams’ properties such as the density, tensile …
