Foam Typical Performance Characterisitcs
  Rise time Free rise core density* Bag surface temperature
Instapak Quick® RT 15-20 seconds nominal 0.55 lb/ft3 145-170° F
Instapak Quick Tuff® RT 25-35 seconds nominal 1.1 lb/ft3 140-165° F
Instapak Quick® 15-20 seconds nominal 0.4 lb/ft3 130-155° F

*In-Use Density: The density of foam obtained when rise is restricted is always higher than the free rise density for all commercial packaging foams. It is typically 1.5 to 2.0 times the free rise density.

Expanded Foam

Instapak Quick® RT components "A" and "B" are mixed inside an internal pouch. The material that expands is liquid polyurethane. This liquid quickly expands and solidifies to form a custom-fit protective packaging material for your product. Polyurethane foams are chemically inert and not considered hazardous materials. In fact, they are found in many aspects of our daily lives, e.g., bedding, chair cushions, carpet padding and automobiles.

The packaging area should be designated as a "no smoking" area. Smoking in the presence of polyurethane foams, as with most packaging materials, increases the risk of fire.
