Due to their versatile structure and excellent mechanical, physical and chemical properties, polyurethanes are widely used in various fields of applications mainly as foams, elastomers and coatings. However, the use of dangerous compounds (mainly isocyanates) for their synthesis associated with the recycling problems have encouraged researchers to develop new ways to synthesize more environmentally friendly and biodegradable polyurethanes.
So far, most of the conducted studies concerned the synthesis of nonisocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) by reacting cyclic carbonates and diamines. Moreover, in the last decade, intensive effort was devoted to the synthesis of isocyanate based polyurethanes (PUs) and nonisocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) from natural resources such as vegetable oils and natural fats. These compounds allow to obtain cheaper, biodegradable and environmentally friendly polymers, using the so called green–technology. The idea was to carry out processes using the solvent–free method in accordance with the principles of sustainable development.
