Archondouli et al. (2003) studied blends of PC with polyester-type polyurethane using SEM, mechanical properties, DMA, DSC, TGA, ETIR, and NMR. Eormation of copolymer was shown by selective solvent extraction and spectroscopic analysis. 

Chapter 5 summarizes the investigation of lignocellulosic flax fiber-based reinforcement requirements to obtain structural and complex shape polymer composites. This chapter discusses in detail the possibility of forming complex shape structural composites which are highly desirable for advanced applications. Chapter 7 focuses on the structure and properties of cellulose-based starch polymer composites, while Chapter 8 focuses on the spectroscopic analysis of rice husk and wheat gluten husk-based polymer composites using computational chemistry. Chapter 9 summarizes the processing, characterization and properties of oil palm fiber-reinforced polymer composites. In this chapter, the use of oil palm as reinforcement in different polymer matrices such as natural rubber, polypropylene, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, phenol formaldehyde, polystyrene, epoxy and LLDPE is discussed. Chapter 10 also focuses on... 

The fillers can be isolated by ashing a quantity of polyurethane to yield the desired quantity of ash for spectroscopic (or wet chemical method) analysis. Often the filler can be identified by infrared without any elemental analyses. Usable spectra of inorganic compounds may be obtained by grinding with a mortar and pestle to a powder, spreading uniformly between two salt plates, and gently moving one plate over the other until good contact between plates and sample is achieved. A demountable cell is normally required to centre the plates in the spectrophotometer beam.
