1. Properties shown are representative values for 1" thick material, unless otherwise speci ed.
2. Modi ed as required to meet ASTM C578.
3. R means the resistance to heat  ow; the higher the value, the greater the insulation power. This insulation must be
installed properly to get the marked R-value. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. If a manufacturer’s
fact sheet is not provided with the material shipment, request this and review it carefully. R-values vary depending
on many factors including the mean temperature at which the test is conducted, and the age of the sample at
the time of testing. Because rigid foam plastic insulation products are not all aged in accordance with the same
standards, it is useful to publish comparison R-value data. The R-value for FOAMULAR
®
XPS insulation is provided
from testing at two mean temperatures, 40ºF and 75ºF, and from two aging (conditioning) techniques, 180 day real-
time aged (as mandated by ASTM C578) and a method of accelerated aging sometimes called “Long Term Thermal
Resistance” (LTTR) per CAN/ULC S770-03. The R-value at 180 day real-time age and 75ºF mean temperature is
commonly used to compare products and is the value printed on the product.
4. Values at yield or 10% de ection, whichever occurs  rst.
5. Value at yield or 5%, whichever occurs  rst.
6. Data ranges from 0.00 to value shown due to the level of precision of the test method.
7. Water vapor permeance decreases as thickness increases.
8. These laboratory tests are not intended to describe the hazards presented by this material under actual  re conditions.

10. ASTM E84 is thickness-dependent, therefore a range of values is given.
