Building Codes provide guidelines representing minimum requirements. Further information is available at www.iccsafe.orq. Consult all Authorities having jurisdiction over an area for additional or specific requirements prior to beginning a project. *ASTM E -84 is a test designed for sample thickness up to 4 inches. NFPA 286 is a building code recognized altemative test that is conducted for greater thickness applications of spray foam. These two test reports can then be used by design professionals for their product selection process for projects.

SPF performance and actual physical properties will vary with differences in application (i.e. ambient conditions, process equipment and settings, material throughput, etc). As a result, these published properties should be used as guidelines solely for the purpose of evaluation. Physical property specifications should be determined from actual production material. The above data was collected from samples prepared using the following equipment configuration: Gusme,> H -20/35 proportioner set at 1:1 volume ratio with 50 ft of heated delivery hose Gusmer GX -7 spray -gun configured with a #1 mix module and #70 PCD and/or GAP spray -gun configured with a #1 mix chamber Process temperature settings: Isocyanate 130 °F; Resin 130 °F; Hose 130 °F Process pressure: 1000 psig minimum while spraying SPRAYTITE 178 has shown acceptable on -site performance with temperature settings 67 the range of 110 °F 130 °F for Isocyanate, Resin and Hose. Every job site and set of ambient /substrate conditions are different; therefore, one set of process settings may not work for every situation. It is the responsibility of the applicator to evaluate the on -site conditions and then determine the appropriate SPF reactivity and process settings. "The data chart shows the R -value of this insulation. "R" means resistance to heat flow. The higher the R- value, the greater the insulating power. Compare insulation R- values before you buy. There are other factors to consider. The amount of insulation will depend upon the climate, the type and size of your house, and the fuel use patterns and family size. If you buy too much insulation it will cost you more than what you will save on fuel. To achieve proper R- values, it is essential that this insulation be installed property. GENERAL INFORMATION: SPRAYTITE 178 is a spray polyurethane foam (SPF) system intended for installation by qualified contractors trained in the processing and application of SPF systems, as well as the plural- component polyurethane dispensing equipment required to do so. Contractors and applicators must comply with all applicable and appropriate storage, handling, processing and safety guidelines. BASF Polyurethane Foam Enterprises LLC technical service personnel should be consulted in all cases where application conditions are questionable. CAUTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: SPRAYTITE 178 is designed for an application rate of Y inch minimum to 2 inches maximum per pass. Once installed material has cooled it is possible to add additional applications in order to increase the overall installed thickness of SPF. This application procedure is in compliance with the Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance (SPFA). SPRAYTITE 178 is NOT designed for use as an EXTERIOR roofing system. BASF Polyurethane Foam Enterprises LLC offers a separate line of products for exterior roofing applications. For more information please contact your sales representative. Cold- storage structures such as coolers and freezers demand special design considerations with regard to thermal insulation and moisture -vapor drive. SPRAYTITE 178 should NOT be installed in these types of constructions unless the structure was designed by a design professional for specific use as cold storage. SPRAYTITE 178 is designed for installation in most standard construction configurations using common materials such as wood and wood products, metal and concrete. SPRAYTITE 178 has performed successfully when sprayed onto wood substrates down to 30 °F. SPRAYTITE 178 may be used for exterior below -grade applications in conjunction with code accepted protection by dampproof or waterproof coverings. Such installations in areas where the probability of termite infestation is "very heavy" must be in accordance with International Building Code (IBC) Section 2603.8 or International Residential Code (IRC) Section R320.5, as applicable. For other substrates, please consult your BASF Polyurethane Foam Enterprises LLC sales or technical service representative for specific recommendations. Foam plastic materials installed in walls or ceilings may present a fire hazard unless protected by an approved, fire- resistant thermal barrier with a finish rating of not less than 15 minutes as required by building codes. Rim joists /header areas, in accordance with the IRC and IBC may not require additional protection. Foam plastic must also be protected against ignition by code approved materials in attics and crawl spaces. See relevant Building Codes and www.iccsafe.orq for more information. The SPRAYTITE 178 foam systems are NOT recommended for medical uses; such as, splints or casts for broken bones nor other medical or pharmaceutical uses. In addition to reading and understanding the MSDS, all contractors and applicators must use appropriate respiratory, skin and eye Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when handling and processing polyurethane chemical systems. Personnel should review the following document published by Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance (SPFA): AX -171 Course 101 -R Chapter 1: Health, Safety and Environmental Aspects of Spray Polyurethane Foam and Coverings and the following document available from the Center for the Polyurethanes Industries (CPI): Model Respiratory Protection Program for Compliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's Respiratory Protection Program Standard 29 C.F.R. §1910.134 As with all SPF systems improper application techniques should be avoided. Examples of improper application techniques include, but are not limited to excessive thickness of SPF, off-ratio material and spraying into or under rising SPF. Potential results of improperly instated SPF include: dangerously high reaction temperatures that may result in fire and offensive odors that may or may not dissipate. Improperly installed SPF must be removed and replaced with properly installed materials. LARGE MASSES of SPF should be removed to an outside safe area, cut into smaller pieces and allowed to cool before discarding into any trash receptacle. SPF insulation is combustible. High- intensity heat sources such as welding or cutting torches must not be used in contact with or in close proximity to SPRAYTITE 178 or any polyurethane foam. SHELF LIFE AND STORAGE CONDITIONS: SPRAYTITE 178 Series has a shelf life of approximately three months from the date of manufacture when stored in original, unopened containers at 50 -80 °F. As with all industrial chemicals this material should be stored in a covered, secure location and never in direct sunlight. Storage temperatures above the recommended range will shorten shelf life. Storage temperatures above the recommended range may also result in elevated headspace pressure within packages.
