In view of this limitation, MPOB has put in efforts to prepare a suitable palm oil-based polyol for CASE. The new polyol is made from oleic acid and glycerol, which are co-products of the palm kernel oil refinery and biodiesel plant, respectively. this new palm oil based polyol is known as a fatty acid based polyol (PolyMo), and it has been found to be suitable for formulation into PU for adhesives application.
