Closed Cell Polyethylene Foam Insulation
Tundra closed cell polyethylene foam semi slit pipe insulation is used in residential and light commercial plumbing projects to prevent heat loss and protect pipes from freezing.
Closed cell polyethylene foam insulation. It is used as thermal insulation as shock absorption to dampen sound and as cushioning. The result is a smooth fine cell foam sheet suitable for many situations. The benefits of polyethylene foam include. Polyethylene sheeting is also easily laminated together to create thicker sections that can then be cut for furniture inserts personal flotation device inserts or specialized packaging.
Closed cell is a two component medium density one to one by volume spray applied polyurethane foam. To produce closed cell requires the use of an a component iso and a blended b component resin which contains zero ozone depleting blowing agents catalysts polyols and fire retarding materials. Polyethylene closed cell foam is available in sheets cylinders and tubes that are great for expansion joint filler backer rod insulation buoyancy components and packaging. Closed cell spray foam insulation is an air barrier water resistive and a vapor barrier.
It is very buoyant and is frequently found in flotation devices and other nautical equipment. Strong and resilient polyethylene foam is often sold as closed cell foam sheets. Pe foam is closed cell foam made from polyethylene and blended copolymers. Closed cell foam insulation is excellent at resisting moisture and polyethylene in particular is often used as thermal insulation materials.
It has a high level of chemical cross linking. Polyethylene foam s versatility can be seen across a wide range of applications from archery targets and long term storage to sill plate gaskets and bond breaker in masonry work. It is available in wall thicknesses of 3 8 to 1 in sizes ranging from 3 8 up to 4 ips id. Closed cell can be installed anywhere and the demilec product range provides outstanding high performance options for commercial residential and agricultural projects.
