uretraan
Uretraan is a term used in Dutch-language chemistry literature to refer to urethane compounds, also known as carbamate esters. These compounds share a carbamate functional group, generally represented by the general formula R-O-CO-NH-R', in which an alcohol-derived alkyl group is bound to a carbamate moiety attached to another organic fragment. Uretraan encompasses a broad family of substances ranging from simple urethanes such as ethyl carbamate to complex urethane polymers.
In practice, uretraan compounds are prepared by reacting alcohols with carbamoyl derivatives, or more commonly by
Nomenclature: The spelling uretraan appears in some Dutch sources as a variant; however, standard Dutch usage
Safety and regulation: Uretraan materials vary in hazard. Low-moiety urethanes are generally stable, but isocyanates used
