Bio Based Foams

Bio based foams are the foams that are produced by using the natural and renewable resources such as plant based materials instead of petroleum based materials and they are similar in structure with polyols. There are various options available in shape of oils like Castor oil, Palm Oil, Soyabean oil etc. These are the most common ones which have been used by various industries all over the world. There are few manufacturing companies which are using these oils and synthesize them as per regular grade of polyols but their parameters are little higher than regular conventional polyols.

There are different blending ratios ranging from 5-25 PPH depending upon the derived formulation. These oils can be used in flexible foams, Viscoelastic foams & HR foams. Density range and percentage of addition is highly depend upon trials and derived formulation as per quality of foam.
