What is Icynene Foam Insulation?
(for additional information see; http://www.icynene.on.ca/) Icynene Foam (see photos)is a two part system consisting of Polyicynene MDI and Polyicynene Resin. The two are supplied to a 1:1 proportioning unit, which hydraulically supplies a mixing gun with equal amounts of each material. Triggering the gun allows the material to be released to the substrate, where it reacts from the mixture and expands to 100 times liquid size, turning into a foam material (Icynene Insulation) which fills all cracks and open cavities in seconds. Icynene foam insulation is an open celled foam insulation which helps to seal the building envelope. This allows the owner to manage the interior air, using controlled ventilation and eliminates 99% of the unwanted outside air-pollutants. Icynene foam insulation has no CFCs, HCFCs or formaldehydes and is incapable of supporting bacteria or fungus. In fact, Icynene foam insulation is endorsed by the Envirodesic® Building Program, which is sanctioned by the
