Abstract

Green polymer foam was prepared by the reaction of green monomer based on vegetable oil with commercial Polymethane Polyphenyl Isocyanate (Modified Polymeric-MDI) and distilled water (H2O). The morphological study of green polymer foam was examined by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and acoustic property by means of H2O composition ratio equivalent to weight of polyol. It was found that the cell size of green polymer foam has significantly increment as well as H2O loading increased. Increasing of H2O more than 50% equivalent to weight of polyol shows nonuniform pore distribution, large average pore size and smallest number of pore. Furthermore, the cell size of neat green polymer foam gives 400μm up to 1833.3μm with high loading of H2O. In addition, the cell size of green polymer foam influences by the increasing amount of H2O loading and enhanced the sound absorption property at low frequency level.
