Grade S

Component S — economy grade, same technology package

For brands that win on volume in price-sensitive markets and still need a documented, repeatable can.

  • 18–21% isocyanate
  • 30–35 m per can
  • Non-load-bearing

In the drum

What arrives, and what it is

Component S is formulated for an 18–21% isocyanate share. That produces a lighter, higher-yield foam: 30–35 m per 750 ml can against 18–22 m for Component A. It is the right material for temporary sealing, AC holes, packaging and non-load-bearing joints — and the wrong material for a window frame you expect to stay sealed for ten years. We say so on this page, on the datasheet and in the SOP.

Packed in 200 L steel drums, five drums to the tonne. Every drum carries the batch number that matches the COA in your inbox.

Finished foam

What your line can reach with this grade

Typical values for the foam this component is formulated for, at the isocyanate share shown. Your numbers follow your can, your gas and your line — the sample is how we narrow them.

Fit and limits

A grade is defined as much by what it refuses to do

Where it fits

  • Can types: 750 ml economy cans, often with a straw actuator.
  • Best for high-volume retail brands and packaging applications.
  • Same drums, same documents, same technical package as A and C.

Where it does not

  • Not for window and door frame fixing — shrinkage shows up as leaks in year two.
  • Not for external or wet exposure; closed-cell content is 60–75%.
  • Not for joints with movement; it is a filler, not a seal.

On the line

Four things that decide the first run

  1. Fill the first two drums strictly by the parameter card and log every weight. That log is what lets you loosen later.
  2. Hold the drum at 18–25 °C. Warm it slowly if the store is cold — never with an open flame, never in one spot.
  3. Flush the line when you change grades: 20–30 minutes, then recalibrate the fill weight.
  4. Keep one can per batch, cut it the next day and photograph the section. Two years of those photos end most quality arguments.

Documents

What travels with the drums

SDS and COA

One safety data sheet per grade, one certificate of analysis per batch, batch number printed on the drum.

Form E and packing list

ASEAN origin documentation prepared before booking, so the customs broker is not chasing paper at the port.

Transport appraisal

Non-dangerous goods appraisal on request — the document a shipping line will ask for when the drum is a raw material.

Marks and traceability

Pallet marks in your format, retained samples kept two years, and a written answer if a batch ever needs investigating.

Questions

Three questions on this grade

Why does Component S foam so much more?

Higher blowing-agent share and lower isocyanate share. Yield per can goes up, density and closed-cell content go down. That is the trade, and it is why we print the limits on the datasheet.

Can I sell it as a window foam?

Please do not. Two winters later the frame leaks, and the conversation is about your brand, not about the grade. We will help you position it where it wins: temporary sealing, AC penetrations, packaging.

Is S the same technology package?

Yes — same SOP structure, same parameter cards, same troubleshooting table, same training videos. The grade changes; the support does not.
