Foam
Special phenolic resins in combination with the proper cure catalysts, surfactants and blowing agents produce foam products. Phenolic foam has a unique set of properties such as excellent fire and heat resistance and a low smoke and toxicity rating when burned. Proper surfactants produce closed cell foams with excellent insulating R-values. Other surfactants produce open cell foams demonstrating unique water absorption properties. Typical application fields are:
Floral foam (dry and wet foams)
Orthopedic foam (for making foot print casts)
Insulating Foams
