Polyurethane Foams: Past, Present, and Future (2018, background): “PUs are polymers that are formed by the reaction between the OH (hydroxyl) groups of a polyol with the NCO (isocyanate functional group) groups of an isocyanate, and the name is associated with the resulting urethane linkage [7,11,12,14].”

Microwave-assisted polymer synthesis (MAPS) as a tool in biomaterials science: How new and how powerful (2011, background): “Another limitation of PUs is their difficult solubilization due to the large amount of strong inter-chain hydrogen bonds generated [143].”
Recent trends in environmentally friendly water-borne polyurethane coatings: A review (2016, background): “Although nanoparticles have been widely employed to prepare polymer composite materials with advanced properties due to the synergistic advantage of nanoscale dimensions, they tend to form agglomerates after incorporation into the polymeric matrix, leading to segregation of the inorganic particles o”
Morphology control of segmented polyurethanes by crystallization of hard and soft segments (2010, methodology): “All SPU samples were synthesized using the two step polymerization process using DBTL as a catalyst to facilitate the reaction of the aliphatic diisocyanates [1,35,36].”
