What we do
Polymer Laboratory of the Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry is specialized in the development of polyurethane materials from renewable and recycled feedstock widely available in Europe. Experienced in working with vegetable oils, lignin, pulp production by-products and recycled PET stream.
Development of polyols from various sustainable feedstocks and complete characterization using analytical and instrumental analysis methods
Development of formulations for rigid polyurethane foams and foam characterization – physical, mechanical and thermal properties
Development of cryogenic rigid polyurethane foam insulation and foam characterization – cryotests and physical, mechanical, thermal properties
