Abstract:Petrochemical costs,
limited fossil fuel reserves, and
concerns
about greenhouse gas emissions have raised interest in developing
renewable approaches for synthesizing biobased polyurethanes. This
study aims to solve these problems by making nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite
(HA) reinforcement from waste chicken eggshells and adding it to polyurethane
synthesis through in situ polymerization. The novelty of the research
lies in the utilization of HA as a reinforcement material and renewable
resources for polyuret… Show more
