Innovating Science™ Polyurethane Foam Chemical Kit

Description

Includes

Two premixed chemicals and instructions

Requires

Plastic or paper cups and safety equipment

Excellent demonstration of thermoplastic polymers.

• Produce polyurethane foam with the condensation reaction of a polyisocyanate and a hydroxyl-containing material (i.e., a polyol derived from propylene oxide).
• Mix two viscous liquids to initiate a reaction.
• Lightweight foam expands to 30 times the original volume of the liquids.
• After about 10 minutes, the foam hardens.
• Perform in a fume hood and wear chemical splash goggles, apron and gloves as the chemical components are eye and skin irritants.
