Thermal and anticorrosion properties of polyurethane coatings derived from recycled polyethylene terephthalate and palm olein-based polyols

Polyols of palm olein/polyethylene terephthalate (PET) were synthesized by means of incorporating recycled PET from waste drinking bottles in different proportions into palm olein alkyd in the presence of ethylene glycol. The polyols were characterized by FTIR, and theirs hydroxyl value (OHV), acid...
