Insulating foam. Fact Sheet 13.
Author(s) : ONU Environnement (ex-PNUE)
Summary
This market sector includes foam used for insulation of building fabric, domestic appliances, pipes and vessels. Closed cell insulating foams are manufactured using a blowing agent that creates a cell structure in a polymer matrix. Some of the blowing agents in current use are HFCs.
