  2. File:Temperature-relative humidity chart - PMV method.pdf

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Temperature-relative...

    The representation is made on a temperature-relative humidity, instead of a standard psychrometric chart. The comfort zone in blue represents the 90% of acceptability, which means the conditions between -0.5 and +0.5 PMV, or PPD < 10%.

  3. Intensive animal farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_animal_farming

    Maintaining a more specific temperature within the pig-tolerance range also maximizes growth and growth to feed ratio. In an intensive operation pigs will lack access to a wallow (mud), which is their natural cooling mechanism. Intensive piggeries control temperature through ventilation or drip water systems (dropping water to cool the system ...

  4. Polyurethane foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane_foam

    An assortment of polyurethane foam products for cushioning and insulation. Polyurethane foam is a solid polymeric foam based on polyurethane chemistry. As a specialist synthetic material with highly diverse applications, polyurethane foams are primarily used for thermal insulation and as a cushioning material in mattresses, upholstered furniture or as seating in vehicles.

  5. Spray foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

    Spray foam insulation or spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is an alternative to traditional building insulation such as fiberglass. A two-component mixture composed of isocyanate and polyol resin comes together at the tip of a gun, and forms an expanding foam that is sprayed onto roof tiles, concrete slabs, into wall cavities, or through holes ...

  6. Polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyurethane

    The methods of manufacturing polyurethane finished goods range from small, hand pour piece-part operations to large, high-volume bunstock and boardstock production lines. Regardless of the end-product, the manufacturing principle is the same: to meter the liquid isocyanate and resin blend at a specified stoichiometric ratio, mix them together ...

  7. Intensive pig farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_pig_farming

    Pigs have a limited tolerance to high temperatures and heat stress can lead to death. Maintaining a more specific temperature within the pig-tolerance range also maximizes growth and growth-to-feed ratio. Indoor piggeries have allowed pig farming to be undertaken in countries or areas with unsuitable climate or soil for outdoor pig raising. [8]

  8. List of polyurethane applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polyurethane...

    Polyurethane chemicals are injected by a mixing head into the mold cavity. Then the mold is held at a preset reaction temperature until the chemical mixture has foamed, filled the mold, and formed a stable soft foam. The time required is two to three minutes, depending on the size of the seat and the precise formulation and operating conditions.

  9. Moisture cure polyurethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_cure_polyurethane

    A range of NCO/OH eq. ratios from 1.2 - 1.6 was used. Thermal and mechanical properties of moisture cured polyurethane-urea /clay nanocomposite coatings have been studied in relationship to clay dispersion and intercalation of clay platelets in the urethane-urea matrix. [ 4 ]
