Comparative Study on Optimization of Factors Affecting Epoxidation-Hydroxylation Reaction for The Production of Waste Cooking Oil Based-Polyol
Abstract:Raw materials for the production of polyurethane (PU), including polyols and isocyanate are derived from crude oils which pose multitude environmental impacts. While, the exploits of pure cooking oil, like palm oil used as a feedstock for polyol could cause bio-crisis, triggered by the imbalance of its demands and supplies. Hence, the utilization of vegetables or cooking oil from waste are mandatory to resolve the impacts. This study revolves around the comparative assessment of waste cooking oil (WCO) over pu… Show more
