2. Rigid panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_panel

   Rigid cellular polystyrene (RCPS). This includes extruded polystyrene foam XPS (such as Styrofoam and commonly referred to as "blue board," expanded polystyrene foam EPS (commonly referred to as "beadboard"), and MEPS. Polyisocyanurate (also known as polyiso). More stable at high temperatures and less flammable than polyurethane.

3. Insulated siding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_siding

   Insulated vinyl siding with added fan fold foam board insulation raises the R-value to 3.5 - 7.5. Fan fold insulation is installed under the final siding product. The expanded polystyrene foam (EPS) insulation allows for more impact resistance than traditional vinyl siding. The rigid foam-backed siding creates straighter sight lines, and ...

4. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   The board can be sheet metal, fibre cement, magnesium oxide board (MgO), plywood or oriented strand board (OSB), and the core can either be expanded polystyrene foam (EPS), extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), polyisocyanurate foam, polyurethane foam, or be composite honeycomb (HSC).

5. Exterior insulation finishing system - Wikipedia

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

   PB EIFS is the most common type in North America. It uses expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation adhered to the substrate with fiberglass mesh embedded in a nominal 1 ⁄ 16 inch (1.6 mm) base coat which can receive additional layers of mesh for stronger impact resistance. Other types of insulation board can include polyisocyanurate.

6. Polystyrene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polystyrene

   Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is a rigid and tough, closed-cell foam with a normal density range of 11 to 32 kg/m 3. [47] It is usually white and made of pre-expanded polystyrene beads. The manufacturing process for EPS conventionally begins with the creation of small polystyrene beads.

7. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Open-cell foam is porous, allowing water vapor and liquid water to penetrate the insulation. Closed-cell foam is non-porous, and not moisture-penetrable, thereby effectively forming a semi-permeable vapor barrier. (N.B., vapor barriers are usually required by the Building Codes, regardless of the type of insulation used.

8. Styrofoam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styrofoam

   Styrofoam insulation extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), owned and manufactured by DuPont. Styrofoam is a genericized trademarked brand of closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), manufactured to provide continuous building insulation board used in walls, roofs, and foundations as thermal insulation and as a water barrier.
