• Elastopor The Ideal Solution for Residential
  and Industrial Insulation

2
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Polyurethane Spray Foam is the most widespread
  type of insulation in the Iberian Peninsula. It
  allows buildings to reach high levels of comfort
  and energy savings.

Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Main Properties that Characterize Polyurethane
• Rigid Foam
• Thermal Conductivity
• Reaction to Fire
• Water Absorption
• Vapour Permeability
• Compression Resistance
• Air permeability

4
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Thermal Conductivity (1)
• The foam undergoes a natural aging process due
  to the interchange of cell gas with air.

Gas interchange
Aged Value l lt 0,028 W/mK
Initial Value l lt 0,022 W/mK
In Spain, the aged lambda value is used for
calculations.

• Thermal Conductivity (2)
• The closed-cell structure and the presence of
  gases with a low thermal conductivity, give
  polyurethane its excellent thermal conductivity
  values.

6
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Reaction to Fire
• Standard spray foam has a reaction to fire
  classification of B2 according to the German
  standard or Class E according to the European
  standard UNE EN 13 501-1.
• It is possible to obtain higher or lower levels
  of fire protection, such as the Spanish M2 or M1
  classifications or the German B3.
• In order to select the correct foam, it is
  necessary to keep national regulations in mind.

Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Water Absorption
• Spray foam has a very low water absorption due
  to its closed-cell structure. As a result,
  absorption only takes place at the surface
• Long-term absorption by partial immersion lt 0,3
  kg/m2
• Long-term absorption by total immersion lt 2

• Water Tightness
• Spray Foam is watertight, and easily passes de
  European standard for water tightness EN 1928 at
  a pressure of 60 kPa (6 m column of water)
• Also, a brick façade, insulated with spray foam
  from the inside shows no water penetration when
  tested according to European standard EN 12865,
  which simulates rain combined with wind. The
  insulated façade withstands the maximum pressure
  of 1800 Pa, which corresponds to wind speed of
  approximately 200 Km/h.

Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Vapour Permeability
• Closed-cell foam is impermeable to liquid water,
  but does posses a certain permeability to water
  vapour. As a result, the foam possesses excellent
  hydrothermal properties.
• m 70 -140 (Depending on the density)

10
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Compression Resistance
• The rigid cell structure results in high
  compression resistance values, which make the
  foam ideal for floors and other applications
  bearing loads.

11
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• The Advantages of Spray Foam
• The best thermal conductivity
• Prevention of thermal bridges/insulation without
  joints
• Insulation installed by trained professionals
• Fast installation
• Adhesion to the substrate
• Adapts to the shape of the substrate, easy to
  insulate difficult areas such as columns, waved
  roofs
• Mobility
• Air tight
• Water Impermeability
• Moderate vapour permeability that reduces to risk
  of condensations

12
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Thermal Conductivity Coefficient
• Spray Foam has the best thermal conductivity
  coefficient of any insulation used in
  construction.

Insulation Material Thermal Conductivity Coefficient
Polyurethane Foam 0,028 W/mK
Expanded Polystyrene EPS 0,030 - 0,047 W/mK
Extruded Polystyrene XPS 0,029 - 0,037 W/mK
Mineral Wool 0,033 - 0,044 W/mK

Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• Thermal Conductivity Coefficient
• Same insulation with less thickness

14
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• 2. Insulation without joints
• Being a continuous insulation, it is possible to
  prevent thermal bridges. (eg. Leaving only 6 of
  the surface without insulation results in a 30
  increase in thermal conductivity.)

• 3. Professionally Installed Insulation
• Companies and employees normally dedicate
  themselves exclusively to the installation of
  spray foam, making them experts in the
  installation of insulation material.
• In Spain, it is the only insulation material
  whose installation can be certified through a
  quality certification. In Germany a technical
  approval is required. This includes that raw
  material suppliers and the installing companies
  need to perform internal and external quality
  checks. Furthermore the installing companies have
  to verify that they are qualified to carry out
  spray foam insulations.

• 4. Fast Installation
• It is possible to apply up to 600 m2 of foam per
  day. Other insulation materials generally do not
  exceed 200 m2 per day.
• 5. Adhesion to the substrate
• The product is self-adhesive and stays fixed to
  the substrate, preventing any possible
  detachment, common with other types of
  insulation.

17
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• 6. Adapts to the Shape of the Substrate
• Due to the nature of the application, the foam
  adapts itself and reproduces the shape of the
  substrate. As a result, it is easy to insulate
  difficult areas such as columns, waved roofs, or
  covers for blinds.

• 7. Mobility
• Since the product is liquid, it is easy to
  transport and store (It is not necessary to store
  the product on the construction site).

19

8. Air Tight The continues application of spray
foam, without joints, means that the product is
airtight. This gives important energy savings,
highly valued in countries such as USA and
Canada. According to some studies, up to 40 of
energy can be saved, creating an airtight wall.

• 9. Water Impermeability
• Due to its closed-cell structure and its
  continuous application, the product is
  impermeable to water. This results in the
  following advantages
• The possibility of insulating and waterproofing
  in one step (densities above 50 Kg/m3)
• It is not necessary to apply a cement coat to the
  wall.

21
Insulation with Elastopor Spray Foam

• 10. Moderate Vapour Permeability
• The balanced vapour permeability permits
• working without a vapour barrier, permitting the
  surface to breathe.
• only a small possibility of internal
  condensations.
