Polyurethane (PUR and PU) is a polymer composed of a chain of organic units joined by carbamate (urethane) links. While most polyurethanes are thermosetting polymers that do not melt when heated, thermoplastic polyurethanes are also available. Polyurethanes plastic commonly used in the manufacture of flexible, high-resilience foam seating; rigid foam insulation panels; microcellular foam seals and gasket - in.kompass.com/a/bottles-plastic-for-the-pharmaceutical-and-cosmetic-industry/2071009/
adavantages include these among others: 1 synthesised polyurethane is unalloyed and homogeneous 2 raw materials can be analysed and modified before use but in recycled polyurethane, it is a reconstituted form of polyurethane where the constituents (formulation) of the major raw materials can not be easily determined 3 ease of production (one shot using automated machines) but the recycled polyurehanes involes sorting, grinding, bonding and some other complicated methods of processing 4 synthesised polyurethane has second hand value as it can be recycled but in recycled polyurethane, this may not be economically viable.

Adhesives can be made from a variety of materials, including natural substances like animal-based adhesives (e.g. bone glue) and plant-based adhesives (e.g. starch-based adhesives), as well as synthetic materials like acrylics, epoxies, and polyurethanes. The choice of materials depends on the desired properties of the adhesive such as strength, flexibility, and resistance to various environmental factors.
Polyol synthesis refers to the process of creating polyols, which are compounds containing multiple hydroxyl (–OH) groups. This synthesis can occur through various chemical methods, including the reduction of sugars, the hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds, or by polymerization techniques. Polyols are commonly used in the production of polyurethanes, as well as in the food and pharmaceutical industries as sweeteners and humectants. The versatility of polyols makes them important in a range of applications, from industrial to consumer products.
An example of a catalyst is platinum, which is used in catalytic converters to facilitate the conversion of harmful gases into less harmful emissions in vehicles. Catalysis allows chemical reactions to occur more quickly and efficiently, without being consumed in the process.
