Water-blown rigid urethane foam for thermal insulation.

Summary

Water blown foams are being used in production today in Japan (Sharp) in concert with powder-filled vacuum panels (to maintain energy efficiency). Long-term application of water blown foams will be limited to "niche" applications such as pipe insulation. Thermal, aging and structural stability characteristics will prevent this technology from becoming acceptable in household refrigerators and freezers.
