Polyurethanefor Energy Efficiency Solutions

Polyurethane is a versatile polymeric material used in a variety of applications, with a range of density and mechanical properties; among the others... • Rigid foams
• Building industry (boards, metal faced sandwich panels, in-situ spray applications) • Cold chain (refrigerated transport, refrigerated warehouses, supermarket display counters, domesticfridges/freezers) • Water heaters • Pre-insulated pipes (district heating/cooling and oil and gas).

• Elastomeric polyurethane
• Wet insulation for subsea pipelines • Adhesives for insulated panels

What is a Rigid Foam
From the Glossary of Urethane Industry Terms • Those foam products having a firm stiff behavior • Exceed their elasticlimits with deformations higher than 10% Rigid PU foam is a highly cross-linked, cellular insulating construction material of low density • Usually it is closed cell • The cell structure comes from expansion of a chemical or phisycal blowing agent Typically they are used for • Thermal insulation • Buoyancy • Packaging • Furniture • Equipment housing

Page 10 What is a Blowing Agents
• Definition:
• The substance that causes the polyurethane foam to expand lead to a cellular structure. This can be done by either chemical reaction and/or physical evaporation, facilitated by the heat of reaction

• e.g. Water is a chemical blowing agent:
• Physical blowing agents can be gases or low boiling point liquids (HC, CFC, HCFC, HFC,HFO ...)

• Theblowing agent in the cells has low thermal conductivity and plays a major role in determining the thermal conductivity of the foam.
