WHAT IS POLYURETHANE FOAM?

What is Polyurethane Foam?

Improved to provide sealing; It is a single component, fast curing , high quality assembly and filling foam used in water, sound and heat insulation . It is used in many fields such as fixing doors, window frames and similar joinery , filling the gaps , electrical installations , insulating flour of hot and cold water pipes , closing the holes and cracks .

Why Use Polyurethane Foam?

As a humanity, consumption has been a part of our lives for centuries, but in recent years we have started to increase the consumption level. And so the three critical issues that the planet we live in face. These; global warming, energy saving and the need for better quality living spaces.

What should we pay attention to in our living spaces to protect our nature?

How can we reduce carbon dioxide emissions and energy consumption in existing structures?

How can we meet the energy demand of the settlement plans that increase due to population growth?

In order to solve these problems, certain regulations need to be implemented in the long run. We need to take some precautions and make it a task both for sustainability and to protect the living spaces we will leave for future generations. Polyurethane with s sustainable energy savings that can minimize problems by providing. Because polyurethanes play an important role in preserving the natural resources of our planet . Use of polyurethane foam; water, sound and heat insulationthey help to conserve our natural resources while providing energy consumption. Durable polyurethane coatings allow many products to extend the life beyond what can be achieved without coating. In this respect, it is advantageous in many respects that polyurethane foam types are preferred in the materials to be used in the construction of residential areas. In a normal building insulated with polyurethane foam heat savings while providing fireproofing on the ability of fire precautions are taken. Polyurethane foams, which are B1 and B2 incombustible class, are fireproof and flame retardant and prevent the progression of fire.

Where and How to Use Polyurethane Foams?

Polyurethane foams; During the construction of buildings, doors, window frames assembly, filling the gaps , electrical installations , hot and cold water pipes are used in the insulation flour, holes, cavities and cracks are used to isolate.

In order to obtain maximum efficiency from Porto Polyurethane foam types, there are some elements that should be considered during the use of foam . The area where the foam will be applied needs to be purified from dust, dirt and oil. After shaking the tube vigorously for 30 seconds, turn it upside down and insert it into the gun or dosing trigger. Moistening the floor and squeezed foam after cleaning the application area will accelerate the reaction of the product and you can achieve more efficient results. When squeezing the foam, remember that its volume will grow and be careful to fill it in a cost-effective manner.

For subsequent use, the gun and valve must be free of dried foam. Foam that is contaminated by unwanted areas can be cleaned with Foam Cleaner .

In our next topic, we will examine how we can clean the contaminated and dried foam.
