Grafted copolymers which consist of a polydimethylsiloxane backbone and polyethylene oxide-co-propylene oxide pendant groups are used as surfactants to stabilize the foam cells in the flexible polyurethane foaming process. The mechanical properties of the cured polyurethane foam such as air permeabi

## Abstract The effect of both asβproduced and functionalised CNTs on the polymerisation evolution of waterβblown PU foams containing up to 0.3βwt.β% CNTs was studied by in situ FTβIR spectroscopy. FTβIR revealed a decrease on the rate of isocyanate conversion as a function of loading fraction for
A series of flexible polyurethane slabstock foam samples were prepared with varying water content and studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), video-enhanced optical microscopy (VEM), and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). A new TEM sample preparation technique was developed in which
