The goal is to develop a biobased non-isocyanate polyurethane (NIPU) with added functionality that enhances its performance and sustainability. This advanced material aims to incorporate flame-retardant properties to improve fire safety. Additionally, it will feature self-healing, self-cleaning, and anti-microbial coatings to increase durability and longevity, reducing the need for frequent maintenance or replacement. Furthermore, the biobased NIPU is designed with recycling in mind, promoting a circular economy approach and minimizing environmental impact. By combining these functional attributes, this innovative material offers a promising solution for various applications that require enhanced safety, durability, and eco-friendly characteristics.
