What is Polyurethane؟

Polyurethane, often abbreviated as PU, refers to a category of polymers typically produced through the reaction of an isocyanate with a polyol. Unlike other common polymers such as polyethylene and polystyrene, polyurethanes are derived from a wide range of raw materials. This chemical versatility allows polyurethanes to be used in various applications, including rigid foam, soft foam, semi-rigid foam, flexible foam, sound and thermal insulation, spray coatings, resins, and more. Approximately 67% of all polyurethane production is dedicated to foam manufacturing.
