Polyurethane is a type of polymer that is formed by the reaction between isocyanates and polyols. It is a versatile material that can be formulated to have a wide range of properties, including flexibility, durability, and resistance to wear and tear. Polyurethane is used in a variety of applications such as insulation, adhesives, coatings, and foams. It is also used in the medical industry for implants, wound dressings, and drug delivery systems. Polyurethane can be classified as either thermoplastic or thermosetting, depending on the type of reaction used to form it.
