DuPont™ Tuff-R™ Polyisocyanurate Insulation

High-Performance Polyiso Foam with Dual Reflective Foil Facers

<br><b>DuPont™ Tuff-R™ Polyisocyanurate Insulation</b> features high performance, high R-value, closed-cell polyisocyanurate foam core boards sandwiched between a choice of durable exterior foil facers. The polyisocyanurate insulation is created by an exclusive free-rise manufacturing process, which produces a uniform, closed-cell foam for better foam quality than conventional restrained rise process. <br><br> <b>Tuff-R™ Insulation</b> helps reduce air infiltration through the wall by covering cracks between the framing members and sealing tightly against the studs. One facer is a continuous sheet of aluminum foil; the other is a durable tri-laminate facer consisting of aluminum foil, kraft and metalized polyester film.

1Calculated flammability values for this or any other material are not intended to represent hazards that may be present under actual fire conditions.

2R-value of 1.0-inch of foam measured @ 75°F mean temperature, determined in accordance with ASTM C518 after aging for 90 days @ 140°F.

3Vertical compressive strength is measured at 10 percent deformation or at yield, whichever occurs first.
