Potassium octoate is also recovered as polyols in other processes such as hydrolysis.

Potassium octoate is recovered in a liquid product mixture containing active hydroxyl groups.

the potassium octoate molecular weight, better quality products can be obtained from flexible foams using two-phase glycolysis.

The choice of catalyst, among other reaction variables, is an important factor affecting the properties of the recovered products and the time to reach complete degradation of the foam.
The importance of the catalyst is that, unlike direct esterification, trans -reactions with alcohol groups proceed very slowly in the absence of catalysts under mild conditions.
Catalysts used in polyurethane glycolysis include bases such as amines, hydroxides and alkoxides, as well as Lewis acids, leading to secondary reactions (i.e. hydrolysis) in different extents.
