Özet
Aim of study: The use of composites obtained from wood and similar lignocellulosic plants has increased all over the world. Because of the rapid depletion of forest natural resources, the rational use of declining wood raw materials and to evaluate environmental alternatives has gained importance. For this purpose, many alternative lignocellulosic raw materials are used as heat insulation material by producing foams. Material and method: This research compared the properties of liquefied using cotton burr after liquefaction under different acid concentrations, PEG 400-Glycerin/Cotton burr ratios, pore sizes, and PEG 400/Glycerin ratios. The cotton burrs were put in a reaction chamber at 160 degrees C for 2 h with the PEG 400-Glycerin/cotton burr and sulfuric acid in a glass balloon. Main results: The maximum yield in the liquefaction of cotton burrs was found in the polyethylene glycol/glycerin ratio of 1:1. It has been found that the amount of unliquefied cotton burrs decreased with increasing of the acid concentration, reaction temperature and time. Research highlights: Consequently, the liquefaction of cotton burrs could be seamlessly used in the production of polyurethane-type foam.
