| Popis: |
Thermoset polymer foams are widely used for many technical insulation applications. They offer superior thermal insulation, a very favorable strength-to-weight ratio and durability in a broad range of service conditions. Furthermore, fabrication technology is eased by the processing of a liquid reaction mixture and the auto-adhesively bond of reacting foam to most of common substrates and facings materials. Polyurethane rigid foam is the material of choice for the whole cold-chain insulation industry, from food processing, storage, and transportation to retailers and fridges at home. Polyurethane products are also largely used for the thermal insulations of buildings and for heat management in pipelines and hot-water tanks. Phenolic foams rather find applications in some specific segments, thanks to the recognized excellent fire behavior characteristics. |
