β¦ Synopsis
Polyurethane rigid foam shows substantial changes in its photoacoustic absorption spectra (PAS) on heating in the presence of air. These spectral changes are due to conjugated structures and quinone-imide formation, formed during degradation. The mechanism of degradation appears to be free radical in nature.
