Mr Muniyasamy has given a very short and comprehensive answer. It is important to know first the purpose and application of PU, for which bio-degradation study is required. Environmental conditions around the polymer, such as, presence of water, microbes, enzymes etc with have to consider before deciding on the degradation study.
