Fully bio-derived CO<sub>2</sub> polymers for non-isocyanate based polyurethane synthesis
Sarah-Elisabeth Dechent, Arjan W. Kleij, Gerrit A. Luinstra
Abstract
The synthesis of partly carbonated polybutadienes (<bold>PC-PBDs</bold>) was developed starting from partly epoxidized polybutadienes (<bold>PE-PBDs</bold>) and CO<sub>2</sub> as renewable feedstock.
