Clarification:

  • Polyols and Isocyanates are the basic raw materials to produce Polyurethanes
  • CAPU’s are Covalent Adaptable Polyurethanes. These are a new range of Polyurethanes with thermoset properties that can be recycled like thermoplastics
  • Chemolysis is a process in which polyurethanes are chemically broken down to their original raw materials (or their precursors)
  • Phosgenation is the process to make isocyanates from amines
