Generally, spray foams are pretty expensive, and are used more frequently on surfaces within the space rather than on the ductwork itself. Sometimes you will see a fireproofing spray on I-beams and ductwork, but they don't do much for the efficiency of the system, or noise attenuation.

Nonetheless, the standard for spray-on type insulation for years has been K-13...

If you are interested in general plenum liner board, or duct wrapping (lagging) I would check out products by Knauf or Johns Manville

Here is some typical lagging that might be used for general HVAC applications.

edit note: I usually reference these products for commercial applications, but I would imagine you could find stuff very similar at the local HD.
