Technical Description


    Apex Foam APOC 1.0P is a fast set, open-celled 100% water-blown polyurethane spray foam insulation system. APOC 1.0P contains no ozone depleting substances and creates a seamless monolithic coating. It expands to fill voids and prevents air movement. APOC 1.0P adds dimensional stability, and will not shrink even under adverse weather conditions. It is mold and mildew resistant, odorless, and only yields non-toxic vapors after application. APOC 1.0P exhibits far superior adhesion properties than any conventional or competitor’s foam insulation system.  This product makes an excellent sound barrier and shows extreme reduction in sound on wood and metal constructions. Interior Applications only.

Air Leakage:                                     0.003 SCFM/f2t                       ASTM E-283

All samples had an overall air leakage below the detectable limits of the equipment used 0.05 SCFM (0.02L/s).
This calculates out to be an air leakage rate of less than 0.003 SCFM/ft 2 (0.016 L/s/m2).

* Prior to designing and installing a spray polyurethane foam interior insulation system, code officials should be consulted for recommendation and approvals. Federal, local and state building codes vary. All require that spray applied polyurethane foam insulation be covered with an approved 15 minute fire rated thermal barrier. One typically approved material is ½” (1cm) gypsum wallboard applied over the spray polyurethane foam insulation. However, always check with local officials for recommendations and approvals. It is recommended that the approved thermal barrier be installed the same day the foam is applied.
