Insulation

DuPont™ Styrofoam™ Brand Ag Board XPS Insulation

U.S. HFC Regulation Compliant Formulation

DuPont^™ Styrofoam^™ Brand Ag Board Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Insulation is durable XPS foam board that resists moisture infiltration, withstands high-pressure cleaning and reduces the potential for moisture condensation within the wall.

In addition to its exceptional insulating value, Styrofoam^™ Brand Ag Board XPS Insulation resists moisture infiltration, withstands high-pressure cleaning and reduces the potential for moisture condensation within the wall. The easy-to-install Styrofoam^™ Brand Ag Board XPS Insulation uses shiplapped edges to create a secure joint that does not require taping, saving considerable installation time.

ASTM D696	Standard Test Method for Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion of Plastics Between −30°C and + 30°C with a Vitreous Silica Dilatometer	Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion	3.5 x 10-5 in/in•°F
ASTM D2126	Standard Test Method for Response of Rigid Cellular Plastics to Thermal and Humid Aging	Change in Dimensions	2.0% change, max.
STRENGTH
ASTM D1621	Standard Test Method for Compressive Properties of Rigid Cellular Plastics	Compressive Strength²	25 psi, min.
ASTM C203	Standard Test Methods for Breaking Load and Flexural Properties of Block-Type Thermal Insulation	Flexural Strength	50 psi, min.

¹Values are consistent with the criteria of ASTM C578 and the requirements of the FTC R-value rule (16 CFR Part 460). R means resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power.

²Vertical compressive strength is measured at 10 percent deformation or at yield, whichever occurs first. Since Styrofoam^™ Brand Extruded Polystyrene Foam Insulations are visco-elastic materials, adequate design safety factors should be used to prevent long-term creep and fatigue deformation.

³Based on 1” thickness.
