Spectroscopic examinations, antimicrobial and anti-corrosive evaluations of polyurethanes synthesized from Thevetia peruviana seed oil
Seed oil based polyurethane resins were synthesized from underutilized plant seedlings of Thevetia peruviana (yellow oleanda). The seed oil was converted to partial glycerides (PG) polyol using calcium oxide as catalyst. The polyol was treated with varying ratios of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) in order to synthesize partial glyceride urethanes (PGU) films. The PG intermediate and PGU...
