Rigid foams were prepared using quebracho tannins and their physical and thermal properties were determined experimentally. These properties were then compared to those of rigid foams derived from mimosa tannins and pine tannins to determine if the nature of the flavonoid affects the properties of the foams. It was found that the preparation of the quebracho tannin-based foams involved the same formulation as that of mimosa tannin-based foams, whereas the ...
