Polyurethane (PUR) foams are used to make automotive seats, upholstered furniture, mattresses, and refrigerator and freezer insulation. Polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams differ from PURs in that they have the desirable properties of being thermally stable and fire retardant. Both PURs and PIRs are now encountering a technical revolution as new blowing agents are developed and new processing methods are analyzed. This book addresses these advancements. It provides fundamental chemistry and discussion of materials. Then the author takes each category of foams and discusses new technologies applicable to preparation and processing. Finally the book addresses latest developments in environmental issues, including safety and pollution.
