3. INTRODUCTION Polyurethane is polymer made from monomer units of urethane (carbamate). Polyurethanes are versatile material which can convert in various forms such as thermosetting plastics, thermoplastics and synthetic rubber (elastomers). Most of polyurethanes are thermosetting plastics which do not melt when heated. Most commonly polyurethanes are made by the reaction of polyol and polyisocyanates. Commercially methylenediphenyldiisocyanate (MDI) and diisocyanate (TDI) are used for production of polyurethanes. OCCAMS BUSINESS RESEARCH & CONSULTING PVT. LTD.
