JFoam™ BX-650
- Chemical Family
- Polyurethanes (PU)
JFoam™ BX-650 is a two component rigid polyurethane foam system designed for structural void filling applications. This system is well suited for RTM applications where high compressive and tensile strength properties are required during post curing of composite part. BX-650 has a recommended service temperature of 225°F.

- Processing Parameters
Condition both components to 25°C. Blend T component into R component. Mix for approximately 15 seconds, larger quantities will require extended mix times, using a high sheer mixer that is driven by a 3500 rpm drill motor. Pour mixed components into mold that is preheated to 100° to 115°F. Maintain a minimum pack factor of 15% over free rise density. For optimum performance post cure part at 25°F above maximum service temperature for one hour. Allow mold to cool to room temperature prior to demolding part. Material will cure at 100°F with maximum physical properties being obtained in 24 hours.
