2.5 hours, most preferably for about 2 hours. The expanded
PUR may be dried by standing in air or by forcing air past
it. The air may be heated. The expanded PUR may be dried
under pressure.

[0050] PUR foam briquettes are produced When, for
example, refrigeration units containing PUR foam are dis
mantled. The briquettes are formed from recycled PUR foam
and contain impurities, for example, plastic and aluminium
fragments. A method for converting PUR briquettes into
PUR suitable for use in the methods and materials according
to the invention is outlined in FIG. 1.
