Product Description
Baydur 661 IBS is a gray-pigmented, rigid polyurethane structural foam system used in the reaction injection molding (RIM) process. This system incorporates a specially engineered interactive blowing system (IBS) and is supplied as two reactive liquid components. Component A is a polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (PMDI), and Component B is a formulated polyol system containing no CFC- or HCFC-blowing additives. Note: Component B should be agitated thoroughly prior to delivery of drum contents to day tank due to possible pigment settling.

The Baydur 661 IBS system is used in transportation, industrial, and recreational markets. The applications typically take advantage of the material's strength, excellent surface finish, and large-part capability. As with any product, use of the Baydur 661 IBS system in a given application must be tested (including field testing, etc.) in advance by the user to determine suitability.
