10 -024 ld-c-50-classic-max_tds PRODUCT SPECIFICATION 1. PRODUCT NAME LD-C-50-v2 ICYNENE Classic Max™ is a trademark for light density, open celled, flexible, 100% water-blown polyurethane foam insulation manufactured by Icynene Inc. ICYNENE Classic Max™ spray formula is a nominal 0.5 lbs/ft3 density, free rise material. 2. MANUFACTURER ICYNENE Classic Max™ (LD-C-50-v2) is made on-site from liquid components manufactured by Icynene Inc. Installation and on-site manufacturing is supplied by independent Icynene Licensed Dealers. 3. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION ICYNENE Classic Max™ is a light density formulation of spray foam insulation. Icynene is the pioneer of high yield, 100% water- blown polyurethane foam technology for air sealing and insulating buildings. ICYNENE Classic Max™ insulates and air- seals in one step for maximum energy conservation while minimizing the environmental impact during manufacturing and construction. Significantly reducing air leakage means ICYNENE Classic Max™ contributes to a healthier, quieter and more comfortable indoor environment, while reducing energy consumption and related greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 50%. ICYNENE Classic Max™ is an effective vapor permeable air barrier material that can move with the building to maintain the air barrier characteristic against energy-robbing air leakage for the life of the building. Convective air movement inside wall cavities is virtually eliminated, providing more uniform temperatures throughout the building. The result is superior quality construction, with higher comfort levels and lower heating and/or cooling costs. Energy savings will vary depending on building design, location, etc. ICYNENE Classic Max™ is applied by spraying liquid components onto an open wall, crawl space, ceiling surface or cathedral ceiling. There it expands approximately 100:1 in seconds to provide a flexible foam blanket of millions of tiny air cells, filling building cavities, cracks and crevices in the process. It adheres to most construction materials, sealing out air infiltration. Excess material is easily trimmed off, leaving a surface ready for drywall or other code-compliant finish. 4. TECHNICAL DATA (Based on Core Samples) Thermal Performance Thermal resistance (ASTM C518) - R/in = R3.7 hr. ft2 ºF/BTU Average insulation contribution in a full fill stud wall: - 2” x 4” = R13 - 2” x 6” = R20 ICYNENE Classic Max™ provides more effective performance than the equivalent R- value of air permeable insulation materials. ICYNENE Classic Max™ is not subject to loss of R-value due to aging, windy conditions, settling, convection or air infiltration; nor will it be prone to traditional moisture intrusion via air leakage. Air Permeance/Air Barrier /Air-Seal ICYNENE Classic Max™ fills any shaped cavity, and adheres to most construction materials, creating assemblies with very low air permeance. Additional interior or exterior air infiltration protection is subject to applicable codes. Air permeability of core foam: ASTM E283 - 0.009 L/s.m2 @ 75 Pa for 3.5“ Air permeability of a 2” x 6” wood framed wall assembly: ASTM E2178 - 0.01 L/ s.m2 @ 75 Pa for 5.5” All buildings insulated and air-sealed with ICYNENE Classic Max™ must be designed to include adequate mechanical ventilation/ outdoor air supply. See ASHRAE Standard 62 – Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality. Water Vapor Permeance ICYNENE Classic Max™ is water vapor permeable and allows moisture to diffuse through the insulation and dissipate from the building envelope. Water vapor transmission properties: (ASTM E96 Desiccant Method) - 11 perms @ 5.5” In those situations that warrant a vapor retarder, a supplemental layer of polyethylene may be used. Alternately, low vapor permeance paint either directly on the foam or as a primer for the interior drywall may be used. Water Absorption Properties Water can be forced into the foam under pressure because it is open celled. Water will drain by gravity, given favorable drying potential, and upon drying all chemical and physical properties are fully restored. Acoustical Properties Performance in a 2” x 4” wood stud wall: STC Sound Transmission Class – 37 Hz. Freq. 125 250 500 1000 2000 4000 ASTM E90 19 30 31 42 38 46 NRC Noise Reduction Coefficient – 70 Hz.

SL-213-01 – November 2012 HEALTH AND SAFETY STATEMENT FOR CERTIFIED ICYNENE SPRAYERS Icynene products have an excellent health and safety record spanning more than 350,000 insulation projects over more than 25 years. Nonetheless, safe handling practices during and immediately following installation are required to eliminate the possibility of health effects from exposure to isocyanates. Asthma, other lung problems, and irritation of the nose and throat can result from inhalation of isocyanates. Direct contact with the skin and eyes can result in irritation. Different individuals will react differently to the same exposures; some will be more sensitive than others. Severe asthma attacks have been reported in some sensitized workers exposed repeatedly to isocyanates while not wearing proper protective equipment. Some reports indicate a reaction and sensitization can occur following a single, sustained occupational exposure to isocyanates without proper protective equipment above the OSHA permissible exposure limit. But sensitization might not occur immediately in some individuals. Consistent use of personal proper protective equipment to prevent exposure during spraying and within the 24 hour-period after spraying is completed is critical to eliminating the health hazard. Once sensitization has occurred, a worker might not be able work safely with spray foam insulation again. Sprayers, sprayer helpers, and anyone else present during spraying or within 24 hours after spraying is complete: You must wear proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times during spray, including full-body-coverage, chemical-protective clothing and a NIOSH-certified respirator with fresh air supply. While spraying and for 24 hours after spraying is completed, no one must be allowed within 50 feet of the sprayed foam without wearing this type of PPE at all times. Adequate active, negative pressure ventilation (exhaust fans) of the job site must be in place during spray and for 24 hours after spray is complete. Independent studies indicate that with 24 hours’ active ventilation after spraying is completed, Icynene spray foam insulation is safely cured. HEALTH AND SAFETY STATEMENT FOR HOMEOWNERS Icynene products have an excellent health and safety record spanning more than 350,000 insulation projects over more than 25 years. Nonetheless, safe handling practices during and immediately following installation are required to eliminate the possibility of health effects from exposure to isocyanates. Asthma, other lung problems, and irritation of the nose and throat can result from inhalation of isocyanates. Direct contact with the skin and eyes can result in irritation. Different individuals will react differently to the same exposures; some will be more sensitive than others. Everyone (other than Icynene-certified spray technicians) must vacate the job site, remaining completely out of the building and at least 50 feet away, while the spray is applied and for at least 24 hours after spraying is completed to allow active ventilation of the job site and to ensure the foam chemicals are completely cured. No exceptions. Independent studies indicate that with 24 hours’ active ventilation after spraying is completed, Icynene spray foam insulation is safely cured.
