This flexible polyurethane foam is perfect for seat cushions, props and more. This foam can be processed by hand (or machine) and can be poured into unheated cavities or molds.
This is a polyurethane casting system foam consisting of an A and B component. The result is a compressible foam.
- Brownish
- Can be processed by hand
- To be used in unheated molds
- Good fluidity
- Suitable as:
- end product in industrial applications
- filling of flexible objects
Technical data
- Mixing ratio by weight: A:B = 100:38
- Mixing time at 20°C*: 40 seconds
- Density cured: 280 kg/m³ (0.05 gram/cm³)
- Volume increase: 3.8 X
*For 100 grams. Larger quantities and higher temperatures result in a much shorter processing time. Do not process too much material at once!
Processing
Stir / shake both components in their original packaging well before use, to distribute the fillers well. Only process the PU when it is at room temperature (20 to 25°C). Work in a dry room at room temperature. Do not use wooden spatulas. Process the product at room temperature +/- 20°C.
Pour components A and B together and mix thoroughly. Mixing is best done with a drill at 1000 RPM. Pour the mixed product into the mold with a constant stream and be careful not to enclose any air. Excessive heat development in large castings can be prevented by pouring several successive layers (allow the layer to harden before pouring the next). Wait until the indicated time has elapsed before demoulding. The thermal and mechanical properties will develop rapidly. Final specifications will only be achieved after 7 days.
Important
The moisture absorbers in these products may settle, requiring remixing before use. This can be accomplished by vigorously shaking the packaging before use.
The less filler you add, the greater the heat development of the casting and the less thick you can pour in one go. Use a mixing bucket with a large surface area to maximize processing time.
The mixing ratio is very important. With a deviation of more than 3% you cannot achieve the given specifications. Therefore, especially with small quantities, use a very precise scale (gram scale accurate to 2 decimal places).
Shelf life
The polyurethane casting system should be stored in a dry place between 6–28°C the expiration date, which assumes storage within the specified conditions, is indicated on the packaging. Opened packages should be processed as soon as possible to ensure product quality. The normal shelf life is 6 months.
