Abstract

Polyurethane  is  polymer  synthetic  which  is  formed  by  reaction  between  polyols  and  polyisocyanates.polyols  are  compounds  which  contain  two or  more  hydroxyl  groups.  Polyurethane  can  be  applied  in  various forms,  such  as  foam,  elastomeric,  coating  and  adhesive.  In  this  work,  we  developed  pol yurethane  foams  by using polyols  based  on  palm  oil.  Palm  oil  based  polyols  as  soft  segments  in  the  polyurethane  backbone accelerate biodegradable process of the polyurethane. Biodegradability is the ability of material to be utilized as a carbon source by  microorganisms and converted safely into carbon dioxide, biomass and water. Commercially available  polyurethane  foams  are  usually  produced  from  petrochemical  based  polyols  that  they  are  not biodegradable. The biodegradability study was conducted by using  Aspergillus niger  (fungi) and  Pseudomonas aeruginosa(bacteria),  with  variation  of  method  and  media  for  biodegradation.  Rigid  polyurethane  foam  was synthesized by  using  one  shoot  process  method,  which  is  reaction  between  palm based polyol  mixture  and methylene diphenly diisocyanate (MDI) at room temperature. The effect of variation of ratio of polyisocyanates (NCO) as hard segment and polyols (OH) as soft segment to the properties of polyurethane foams were studied in detail. Study of the effect NCO/OH ratio   was conducted with variation ratio of 0.8,  1.0  and  1.2. Increasing hard segment (NCO) ratio to the soft segment (OH) affected in the decreasing of hydrophilicity of foam. Thus,the penetration of water into bulk of polymer decreased. The biodegradability  of foam was also affected by the soft segment ratio on the polymer backbone.   Keywords: biodegradable, polyurethane, palm oil, polyols, soft segment

Abstract

Abstract. The Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) process with chemical techniques carried out by injecting chemicals such as surfactants, can be an alternative to increase oil production, especially in old oil wells. This study investigated the best formulation of non-ionic surfactants based on the mole ratio of oleic acid and PEG-400 as well as catalyst types such as KOH and p-TSA 1%, which are used in surfactant synthesis to be able to increase oil production. The tests carried out are the value of acid, saponification, ester, and iodine, FTIR, NMR as well as a test of compatibility, phase behavior, and IFT. The results showed that the best formulation of ester polyethylene glycol oleate with reaction temperature conditions of 130oC was at a mole ratio of 1: 4 using a 1% p-TSA catalyst with a value of acid is 3,61 mg KOH/g, saponification is 144,12 mg KOH/g, ester is 140,51 mg KOH/g and iodine is 76,70 g I2/100 g. The compatibility tests and phase behavior show that this surfactant can be developed in chemical EOR with an IFT value of 2,6 x 10-1 mN/m.

Abstract

This study utilize vegetable oil derivatives as a polyol in polyurethane. A modification of epoxy using polyurethane was done using ester derivative of vegetable oils as polyols, which was polyethylene glycol monooleate (PEGMO). The PEGMO was synthesized via an esterification reaction. The synthesis of polyurethane-modified epoxy using polyethylene glycol monooleate ester (PME-PEGMO) was conducted by reacting epoxy, tolonate and PEGMO. Analysis results of FTIR and H-NMR showed a new absorption peak derived from the urethane bond. The mechanical and thermal properties were characterized by a universal testing machine (UTM) and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), respectively. According to the analysis results, it is shown that the addition of polyethylene glycol monooleate ester-based polyurethane on epoxy improved the mechanical properties of the epoxy, from 69.61 kgf/cm2 to139.80 kgf/cm2. However, it decreased the thermal stability of the epoxy. At 500°C, the mass of epoxy was remaining 28%, while the PME-PEGMO was only 13%.
