POLYISOCYANURATE RIGID FOAM

GENERAL

RIGIFOAM offers Polyisocyanurate (PIC) foam with high performance in the following applications :

*Petro-chemical and Process Plant Insulation

*Industrial Insulation of Pipe and Tank - Work

*High fire risk application

*Shipping and Off-shore Installations

*Building panels for Agreement Approval

CHARACTERISTICS

    -RIGIFOAM PIC35 has excellent thermal conductivity and very high compressive strength.

    -Low flame spread ad smoke emission, hence reducing fire risk.

    -Exhibit very good dimensional stability between 140'C and -30'C and can therefore be recommended with confidence in this temperature range.

    -Highly chemical resistant, particularly to hydrocarbons and solvents.
