Preparation and Processing

  1. To ensure reactivity and viscosity of the components, it is necessary to bring the temperature of the A component to +30 to 35°C, B component to +40 to 50°C before processing.
  2. Use paddle stirrer to stir the polyol component for 10-15 minutes or horizontally roll the barrels for 20-30 minutes.
  3. The isocyanate component (component B) is not required to be mixed if it was stored at a temperature no lower than +15°C. If the isocyanate component was stored at a temperature below +15°C, then slowly heat it to a temperature not higher than +50°C. Then roll the barrel in a horizontal position to a homogeneous state of the component B.
  4. Himtrust SKN-40 G3 is equally suitable for working on machines of high and low pressures at the component temperature below 20°C

Surface requirements:

  1. Application surface should be strong, uniform, clean, dry, free of oils, fats, crumbling, exfoliating residues of the old coating, and dirt.
  2. Epoxy and polymethylmethacrylate surfaces should be pre-treated with abrasive equipment (belt or disc grinders) and cleared from the dust.
  3. Metal surfaces should be decreased and cleaned from rust.

Processing rules

  • The ambient temperature in a working zone should not be lower than +10°C
  • Surface moisture should not exceed the following values: concrete – no more than 4%; cement – sand – no more than 5%, wood – no more than 12%

General spraying instructions

When spraying the coating thickness is controlled and fixed by varying the speed of application or mixing chamber of the gun. The thickness of one layer should be up to 25 mm.

The higher characteristics of the foam, the fewer layers used to achieve the same thickness. However, we do not advise to put a layer of more than 25 mm in one pass due to the occurrence of bubbles and other problems associated with a high thermal effect of the reaction.

Time for the foam to form takes longer if the spraying surface cold. In addition to that, on such surface the thickness of the insulation cannot reach its maximum. Therefore, the first layer should be a warming layer to provide the necessary degree for next layers to foam.

Recommended temperature in hoses is from +30 to 35оС; component A from +40 to +50оС; component B depends on the weather conditions.

If the weather conditions are adverse (cold surfaces, low temperatures, high humidity, etc.), we suggest to implement an additional 0.5 to 1.5% activator into component A. In this case, it is necessary to thoroughly mix the content of the barrel to achieve the proper degree of homogenization.

Problem resolution

Problem Possible reason Resolution
Spraying instability The nozzle of the gun is not properly adjusted or there is contamination in the mixing chamber Adjust the position of the gun. Clean the mixing chamber.
Spraying result has colored spots Poor mixing quality due to difficulty in components moving (congestion) or difference in viscosity Check the pressure, eliminate the congestion. Adjust and increase the temperatures
Spraying flow is weak or nothing at all Component viscosity is high. Spraying is done in a cold atmosphere Raise pressure temperature
Spraying flow is too strong, and creates some mist The air supple to the nozzle of the gun is too strong. Overpressure during mixing Reduce air flow. Reduce the pressure
The material does not have reaction for a long amount of time, it flows down the surface. Cold surface.
Amount of activator is not enough.
Increase heating of the hoses. Add activator
The material reacts too quickly, unevenly lie on the surface due to the fog formation. Overpressure Reduce the air pressure in the gun and in the mixture.
The material crumples (turns into granules), and forms blockages in the equipment. The temperature is too high Decrease hoses temperature
Bubbles are formed The thickness of the surface is higher than 20mm in one pass of spraying Lowed the thickness amount during spraying
High consumption of the A component Difference in viscosity Change component ration if possible. Change hoses and container temperatures. Component B 40 – 45°C, Component A 20-25°C
Large shrinkage of the foam Not uniform flow Component B. Poor mixing quality due to difficulty in moving (congestion) components or difference in viscosity. Check the pressure, eliminate the congestion. Change the ratio of the components, if possible. Change the temperature in the hoses and in the tank: Component B 40-45°C, Component A 20-25°C.
Fragile foam Flow of the component A is uneven. Poor quality of mixing due to the component moving difficulties, or viscosity difference. Check the pressure, eliminate the congestion. Change the ratio of the components, if possible. Change the temperature in the hoses and in the tank: Component B 35-40°C, Component A 30-35°C
