  3. Polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane

    The most common application of polyurethane is as solid foams, which requires the presence of a gas, or blowing agent, during the polymerization step. This is commonly achieved by adding small amounts of water, which reacts with isocyanates to form CO 2 gas and an amine, via an unstable carbamic acid group.
