11. The hydroxyl value represents the average weight fraction of hydroxyl groups in the polyol molecule. The hydroxyl value is obtained from the mass of potassium hydroxide (expressed in mg) necessary to neutralize the acetic anhydride that would react with 1 g of polyol.
12. The isocyanate index represents the excess of isocyanate with respect to the stoechiometric conditions that is necessary to obtain total reaction.
