Insulation Materials in Context of Sustainability
This book gives information and guidance on important subjects. It presents the major and efficient applications for efficient insulation materials. The book is divided into two parts. Part I discusses ecological insulation materials. In this part, the three sub-subjects are drafting, Unconventional insulation materials, Jute-Based Insulation Material, and Possible Applications of Corn Cob as a Raw Insulation Material. Part II: discusses Practical Applying and Performance of Insulation Materials (case studies), where three sub-subjects are drafting seismic aspects of the application of thermal insulation boards beneath the building's foundations, flammability of bio-based rigid polyurethane foam thermal insulation, and the review of some commonly used methods and techniques to measure the thermal conductivity of insulation materials.

Functionalized Polymers
Functionalized polymers are macromolecules to which chemically bound functional groups are attached which can be used as catalysts, reagents, protective groups, etc. Functionalized polymers have low cost, ease of processing and attractive features for functional organic molecules. Chemical reactions for the introduction of functional groups in polymers and the conversion of functional groups in polymers depend on different properties. Such properties are of great importance for functionalization reactions for possible applications of reactive polymers. This book deals with the synthesis and design of various functional polymers, the modification of preformed polymer backbones and their various applications.
Functional Polyurethanes – In Memory of Prof. József Karger-Kocsis
This book is a collection of 22 per-reviewed scientific papers on the synthesis and characterization of polyurethanes with special chemical and physical properties. In our "plastic age", polyurethanes are one of the most versatile polymers with broad and excellent mechanical and chemical properties. These polyurethanes can be found in many areas of our every day`s life ranging from insulators through hard and soft foams to various biomedical devices. The huge number of possible variations in the types of reactants allows the scientists to design and tailor the properties of polyurethanes to specific needs. The fascinating chemistry and materials science of polyurethanes have attracted intere...

Flammability of Bio-Based Rigid Polyurethane Foam as Sustainable Thermal Insulation Material
One of the biggest disadvantages of rigid polyurethane foams is its low thermal resistance, high flammability, and high smoke production when burning. Greatest advantage of this thermal insulation material is its low thermal conductivity, which at 20-25 mW/(m·K) is superior to other commercially available insulation materials. In recent years polyurethane materials from renewable resources have been widely studied. But their use on industrial scale was limited due to inconstant performance and relatively high price of raw materials. Different bio-based raw materials, such as rapeseed oil and tall oil, could provide abundant feedstock for PU foam production. Decrease of flammability of PU ma...
