What is expanding rigid urethane foam?
This two-part liquid, expanding rigid urethane foam is a closed cell, pourable foam, which will resist the absorption of water. The densities shown refer to the weight per cubic foot of expanded foam (12" x 12" x 12").
What is the temperature critical for foam expansion?
All expansion rates and times given are temperature critical. Temperatures below 75 degrees F will lower the expansion rate therefore requiring more foam. Ideal working temperature is 75 to 80 degrees F or above. Accurate measuring of these products is extremely critical.
How much does pour foam expand?
approximately 30 timesfoam expands approximately 30 times its liquid volume before cure, and can fill any shape. Closed-cell structure does not react with oil or gasoline, and will not absorb water. Laminate directly onto foam using epoxy or polyester resin.
