AGRISPRAY® OS Spray foam system

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.
