Effects of di- and trifunctional chain extenders on the properties of flexible cold-cure polyurethane foams
Ali Sohrabi
Abstract:In this study, effects of di- and trifunctional chain extenders including ethylene glycol (MEG), ethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), and glycerin (GLY) were investigated. 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 php (parts per hundred parts of polyol mixture) of the chain extenders were added to the polyol formulation. Then, foam parts were produced by molding. The reaction profile, free rise density (FD), and mechanical properties of the specimens were tested regarding ASTM D7487 test methods. First of all, reaction profiles … Show more
