Dynamic Mechanical Analysis during polyurethane foaming: Relationship between modulus build-up and reaction kinetics

The modulus build-up and relative density evolution during the reactive foaming of four standard polyurethane formulations was monitored in-situ by Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) with a customised set-up in parallel plate geometry. The modulus increased from 0.01 MPa in the first minutes to over...
