Green and Bio Polyols Eco-friendly Alcoholic Solutions Used in Various End-Use Industries
Green and Bio Polyols |
Green and bio polyols are eco-friendly alcoholic solutions obtained from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyurethanes. These high quality bio-based polyols are used in a wide range of applications. Green polyols are used as an important raw material in the production of elastomers, thermoplastic, adhesives, coatings, and artificial leather. Bio polyols are soy-based ingredients used in upholstered furniture, mattress toppers, mattresses, carpet cushion, pillows, etc. Green and bio polyol are widely used in the automotive and construction industries due to their ecologically friendly characteristics.
According to Coherent Market Insights the Green
and Bio Polyols Market Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and
Opportunity Analysis, 2022-2028
Green and bio
polyols are used in seat backrests, armrests, headrests, insulation, interior, and
building applications such as commercial, residential, infrastructural, and
other industrial uses. Thus, there is an increasing demand for green and bio
polyol worldwide. BASF SE (Germany) and Dow Chemical Company (US) are the major
players in the green and bio polyol. Green polyols are derived from
polyethylene terephthalates and polyurethanes. Bio polyols are derived from a
variety of oils such as castor oil, canola oil, coconut oil, rapeseed oil, corn
oil, soya bean oil, and palm oil, among others.
The demand for
thermoplastic elastomers, adhesives, and coatings has been rising from various
end-user industries in recent years. Green and bio polyol are often used in the
production of thermoplastic elastomers, polyurethane, sealants, adhesives,
coatings, and artificial leather, etc. When used in engineering plastics, these
polyols are often copolymerized with other monomers to produce polyurethane and
polyester elastomers. Green and bio polyol are mainly used for the synthesis of
polyurethane, which is further used for making coatings and foam.
There is an
increasing demand for polyether polyols worldwide compared to polyester
polyols, as polyether polyols can be effectively used to produce plastic
products. While, there is a high demand for polyurethane foam as it is used to
make mattresses and spray–on foam for thermal insulation for buildings. Thus,
they are used in various end-use industries, such as automotive, construction,
packaging, bedding, and furniture.
