PIR ni urutonde rw’amakuru rufatanya ibikoresho vya bose vy’amakuru yerekeye ibikorwa vya poroteyine, bigamije gushigikira ubushakashatsi bw’ivy’imitsi y’umubiri. PIR ikorana n’iyindi miryango kugira ngo ikore urutonde rw’amakuru y’urutonde rw’amaproteine mpuzamakungu rwa PIR (PSD)-urutonde runini rw’amaproteine yari yaravuzwe, harimwo amaproteine 250.000. Ibikorwa vya PIR
PIR ni igikoresho gishasha co kwikingira, igikoresho c’ifu gikorwa mu kuvanga, gukorana, no gutera isocyanate na polyether nk’ibikoresho nyamukuru, hamwe n’ibikoresho bitera umuriro, ibizibira umuriro, n’ibikoresho bitera ifu bibungabunga ibidukikije, mu buryo bwihariye n’imirongo y’ubuhinga bukomeye. Kubera ko yigenga -imiterere y'utugingo ngengabuzima n'igipimo kinini c'utugingo ngengabuzima twifunze, iyo foam polymer ifise utugingo ngengabuzima twiza kandi duhuye, ubushobozi bwiza bwo gukingira ubushuhe, n'ubushobozi bwo gukingira urubeya, gutyo yerekana kamere nziza cane mu bijanye no gukingira ubushuhe, gukingira amazi, gukonja, gucika intege. Ico gikoresho c’ubuhinga bwa none gishobora guhangana n’umuriro, ubushuhe buke, ubushuhe bwiza bwo guhangana n’amazi, ubushobozi bwo guhangana n’imiti buhamye, n’ubushobozi bwiza bwo guhangana n’ugukura, bikaba bituma ari co gihitamwo ciza ku bikoresho vy’ubuhinga bwa none bishobora gukingira ubushuhe mu bidukikije vy’ubushuhe n’ubushuhe rusangi. Ubushuhe bwayo bwo kwikingira ni -196 degre gushika kuri +120 degre .
Polyisocyanate foam (PIR), nk’igikoresho gishasha co gukingira ubukonje n’ubushuhe kw’isi yose, caramaze gukoreshwa cane mu bihugu vy’i Buraya vyateye imbere mu bikorwa nk’ivy’ubuhinga bw’inguvu z’amavuta, ubwubatsi, n’ugukingira ibidukikije no kuzigama inguvu. Mu gihugu canje, PIR iracari mu ntango z’iterambere, ikoreshwa gusa mu bijanye n’ubuhinga bwa gazi n’ubuhinga bwa peteroli nka LNG (-165℃, gaze kavukire ihindutse amazi) na éthylène y’amazi (-104℃).
