Polyurethane Production from Waste Bale Fibers
Abstract
Nowadays, the methods of eliminating the pollution from wastes of the materials produced as much as the production methods are important. This requires efficiently use of sources economical and ecologically. Polyester based polymers, which is one of the most important consumed plastic materials in the world, have lots of number of recycling methods. Basically it is called chemical and physical recycling. Chemical recycle methods include glycolysis, aminolysis, methanolysis, hydrolysis and etc..
In this study aromatic polyester polyols produced from
bale fiber wastes via glycolysis method. Zinc Acetate used as a catalysts and
diethylene glycol used for the glycolysis reaction and moiety of glycol
investigated as an experimental parameter. Polyurethane material produced via
obtained polyol and TDI (Toluene di Isocyanate) reaction. Obtained polyurethane
material investigated via FTIR and TGA and compared with the commercial
polyurethane. As a result, it has been
decided that glycolysis is usable and applicable method for the waste bale
fibers.
