Description
Themecoat® 5# polyurethane foam systems are designed for molding and void filling application. Themecoat® 5# can be designed to meet a variety of reactivity requirement without sacrificing product quality and can be formulated to a wide range of densities from 4 to 25 lbs/ft3 (64-401 kg/m3 ).
Material Use
Themecoat 5 lb is designed primarily for molding and void filling applications. It is commonly used in the manufacturing of molded picture frames, furniture parts, structure floats, and other design elements where a rigid polyurethane foam is suitable.
System Components
The system consists of two parts:
· Side-A (Isocyanate) – Low-viscosity liquid with specific gravity of 1.23
· Side-B (Polyol Blend) – Viscous liquid with specific gravity of 1.04
These are mixed in a 1:1 ratio by volume for application.
Applications
This material is intended for use in casting, molding, and structural filling. It is suitable for artistic, decorative, and functional foam structures due to its ability to form a uniform cell structure.
Application Details
· Mix Ratio: 1:1 by volume (Side A : Side B)
· Cream Time: 8–10 seconds at 74°F (23°C), indicating rapid reactivity
· Density: 5 lb/ft³
· Compressive Strength: 250 psi (ASTM 1621)
· Tensile Strength: 190 psi (ASTM 1623)
· Shear Strength: 105 psi (ASTM C-273)
· Mixing Method: Can be mixed by hand or machine
Special Notes
· Storage Temperature: 77°F to 95°F (25°C to 35°C); should not freeze
· Reheating: If solidified, can be re-liquefied at max 140°F (60°C)
· Do Not Exceed: 400°F (204°C) to prevent container rupture due to pressure buildup
· Handling: Avoid inhaling vapors, especially heated MDI. Use with proper ventilation
· Environmental: Does not contain CFCs or ozone-depleting chemicals
· UV Stability: Not specified—assume non-UV stable for outdoor applications unless top-coated
· Application Thickness: Not specified in mils or inches—determined by density and mold volume
· Pot Life & Full Cure Time: Not explicitly stated; likely rapid set based on short cream time
