Isocyanates --suitable lubricant?
I live in Panama, Central America and we have limited (to no) access to the lubricant normally used with the spray polyurethane insulation equipment.
The recommended lubricant is called DOP (Di-Octyl Phthalate) or DEHP. The chemical name is Bis (2-ethylenexy) Phthalate.
Can anyone suggest an alternative. Suggestions providing something even close would be greatly appreciated.
Part 2 of my question is the using of Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether in place of ethylene monomethyl ether. Again we have the same problem. We can get the butly but not the methyl ether.
Help!
