Product Description
AGRISPRAY® OS is an HCFC AND CFC FREE two component,
1:1 ratio, rigid foam system which when processed through
suitable spray machinery (Graco, Gusmer, Glas-Craft) will
produce a rigid foam of approximate density 35kg/m3 with
exceptionally good compressive strength. Service Temp range
-15oC to 70oC. When tested to BS476 part 7 the foam achieves a
Class 1 surface spread of flame.
Uses
AGRISPRAY® OS is used for insulation in:
- Exterior or interior of agricultural buildings
- Ocean going yachts/canal barges
- Internal industrial roofing
- Domestic slate or tiled roofs
Standard AGRISPRAY® OS should not be used on substrates
below 5oC. When used externally the foam must be protected
from ultra-violet radiation and atmospheric degradation by a
suitable elastomeric coating, e.g. ISOTHANE EM.
Equipment
AGRISPRAY® OS can be processed through all standard foam
spray machines. The machine should be capable of maintaining
the mix ratio at ±2% accuracy and controlling the component
temperatures at 40-50oC (variable).

Spray Techniques
The guidelines in Isothane Limited’s standard specification should be followed but the
general requirements are as follows.
- The substrate should be clean, dry and free of dirt, grease, oil and loose particles.
- In certain cases primer may be necessary to maximise adhesion.
- Climatic conditions must be suitable for spraying with regard to humidity and wind velocities.
- The foam should be built up in passes of not less than 15mm and not more than 10 minutes should elapse between passes.
- The requirements of any relevant Agrément Certificates or British Standards should be followed.
Physical Properties
AGRISPRAY® OS is a two component, modified polyurethane rigid foam which, sprayed
through suitable foam machinery, gives a product of nominal density 35 kg/m³.
