Polyurethane Foam as a Fire  Hazard

The flashover leaves behind a char that protects the foam from further burning unless there is a massive amount of heat near it. Urethane either burns very hot or not at all. It will flash when it is exposed and lines a building. But on the exterior of a building where the heat can get away, fire is not much of a threat.
