Polyimide foam is defined as a foam that is ideal and effective
for sound, heat, and cold insulation. Its properties include light weight and
resistance to fire. Moreover, it can be formed into diverse shapes. This foam
is the second-generation of materials that were originally developed as thermal
insulators for reusable launch vehicles. Other properties of polyimide foam
include thermal and acoustic insulation properties and non-toxicity
properties. Polyimide foam does not offer off-gassing and outgassing; however,
it is known to offer insulation against a wide operating temperature range from
-196ºC to +300ºC. Polyimide foam products are more cost-effective and are
easy to install than fibrous insulation. They are light, easy to cut and fit,
and readily adapt to fabrication with other materials. Polyimide foam exhibits
significantly greater resistance to damage than traditional insulating products.
It retains integrity after long-term usage in a vibrating environment and
exposure to extremes of cold and heat, which would degrade other products.
Polyimide foam also exhibits a high degree of chemical stability and is
resistant to hydrocarbons, non-concentrated acids, and alcohols. It is produced
at low densities, ranging from 3.2 to 17 kg/m3 (0.2 to 1.0 pounds per cubic
foot) and is inherently fire-retardant due to its chemical composition.
Polyimide foams are cured by microwave, which offers lower cost and faster
production than other manufacturing methods for polyimide foams. The foams can
be manufactured to be either rigid or flexible, depending upon their
applications.
