In our last article in the series on the myths of polyurethane, we want to talk about its durability and insulating capacity. If you're wondering if polyurethane degrades and disappears over time, or if it maintains its capabilities over the years, read on.

In other articles, we have already analyzed how polyurethane is formed and used as an insulation system or to manufacture some parts, among other applications. The mixture of the two components, polyol and isocyanate, which are liquids at room temperature, produces a...

Sprayed polyurethane foam presents a magnificent adhesion on consistent, clean and dry substrates and, in general, to all the materials used in building. It should not be forgotten that polyurethane foam was discovered during research on a kind of glue.

Thermal conductivity is a physical property that appears in any material, including polyurethane, and it measures the heat conduction capacity through it, or in other words, the transport of heat energy through a body. This energy movement is produced by the difference...

Knowing the insulation needs of buildings is fundamental to improve their energy efficiency and so that they make a more intelligent use of energy. Therefore, designing their envelope with the optimum insulation thickness is the best strategy to get the most benefits...

Control of indoor air humidity is key to the healthiness of buildings. Even if at first glance we can not perceive the amount of water vapour that is present in the room, on average a person perspires between 3 and 5 litres of water vapour per day.
