GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
SAPTEX-PIR A “POLYISOCYANURATE FOAM”
is manufactured in similar process, like poly-urathane. SAPTEX PIR has all the characteristics and advantages of rigid polyurethane foam, in ad-dition to its greatly enhanced resistance to burn-ing, least spread of flame and ability to withstand continuous temperature of 140’c. When subject-ed to fire the outer surface of the foam forms a strong carbonaceous fibrillar facsimile network which prevents further flame spread and penetra-tion.
For ease of identification, SAPTEX PIR blocks may be coloured (if required) either pink or green, during processing.
APPLICATION :
SAPTEX PIR has many diversified applications in A/C, technical, petrochemical and other general insulation installations. It is used for thermal insulation of pipes, tanks, vessels, in process plants and airconditioning systems. It can be adhered to rigid or flexible substrates to add up a wide variety of properties suitable for duct, pipe and tank insulation.
