IFS has a range of PU (polyurethane) foam systems for laminated boardstock applications as well as high-performance PIR (polyisocyanurate) foams for more highly fire-retardant grades.
The fully formulated systems utilise HFA blowing agents and consequently produce foams with very low lambda values and very fast build-up of modulus.
The Company provides both polyether and polyester-based materials, either part or fully blended. Polyester-based systems are formulated from DMT polyesters and exhibit fast cure times and high levels of fire properties. Additionally, the new Enviropol polyol derived from renewable oil (rapeseed) can be added to conventional aromatic polyester polyols as a means of improving the environmental credentials of the foam. This addition of an environmentally attractive polyol also leads to improvements in processing latitude and to cost reductions.
