  2. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Rigid panel insulation, also known as continuous insulation [15] can be made from foam plastics such as polyisocyanurate or polystyrene, or from fibrous materials such as fiberglass, rock and slag wool. Rigid panel continuous insulation is often used to provide a thermal break in the building envelope, thus reducing thermal bridging.

  3. Polyisocyanurate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyisocyanurate

    The generalised chemical structure of polyisocyanurate showing the isocyanurate group. The polyols are abbreviated as R-groups.. Polyisocyanurate (/ ˌ p ɒ l ɪ ˌ aɪ s oʊ s aɪ ˈ æ nj ʊər eɪ t /), also referred to as PIR, polyol, or ISO, is a thermoset plastic [1] typically produced as a foam and used as rigid thermal insulation.

  4. Styrofoam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styrofoam

    Styrofoam has a variety of uses. Styrofoam is composed of 98% air, making it lightweight and buoyant. [6] DuPont produces styrofoam building materials, including varieties of building insulation sheathing and pipe insulation. The claimed R-value of styrofoam insulation is approximately 5 °F⋅ft 2 ⋅h/BTU for 1 inch thick sheet. [7]

    The third component in SIPs is the spline or connector piece between SIPs. Dimensional lumber is commonly used but creates thermal bridging and lowers insulation values. To maintain higher insulation values through the spline, manufacturers use Insulated Lumber, Composite Splines, Mechanical Locks, Overlapping OSB Panels, or other creative methods.

  6. Rigid panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_panel

    A multi-family residential building under construction with rigid panel exterior insulating sheathing. Rigid panel insulation, also referred to as continuous insulation, [1] can be made from foam plastics such as polyurethane (PUR), polyisocyanurate (PIR), and polystyrene, or from fibrous materials such as fiberglass, rock and slag wool.

  7. Exterior insulation finishing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exterior_insulation...

    Other types of insulation board can include polyisocyanurate. PM EIFS use extruded polystyrene insulation (XEPS) and a thick, cementitious base coat applied over mechanically attached glass fiber reinforcing mesh. The system has joints similar to traditional stucco. PM EIFS have evolved to include different insulation materials and base coats.
