4 Test methods
4.1 Method 1 – Dimensional stability
4.1.1 Principle
The foam is dispensed in the gap between two particle boards. When foam is fully cured, the
dimensional stability of the foam is determined by measurement of the distance between the panels
over several days and weeks.
NOTE Typically OCFs tend to shrink within the first few days after curing due to gas release from the closed
cells. The vanishing propellant leaves an under-pressure in the cells resulting in a shrinking of cell size, therefore
the whole foam shrinks. This effect is usually compensated over several days by the slower permeation of air.
Shrinking foam can affect the sealing of joints by separation from the surfaces or deformation of the
joints. The degree of shrinkage depends not only on the OCF formulation, but also on the environmental
conditions e.g. humidity and/or temperature.
