This refective, ow emissivity surface improves the therma resistance of any unventiated cavity adjacent to the board. The Core The core of Kootherm K12 is a premium performance rigid thermoset fiber-free phenoic insuant manufactured with a bowing agent that has zero Ozone Depetion Potentia (ODP) and ow Goba Warming Potentia (GWP). Standard Dimensions Kootherm K12 is avaiabe in the foowing standard size(s): Nomina Dimension (in) Avaiabiity (mm) Width 47.25 1200 Length 96 2438 Insuant Thickness Refer to Insuation for current stock and non stock sizes. Standards and Approvas Kootherm K12 is manufactured to the highest standards under a management system certified to ISO 9001: 2008 (Quaity Management Systems. Requirements), ISO 14001: 2004 (Environmenta Management Systems. Requirements), and OSHAS 18001:2007 (Occupationa Heath & Safety Management Systems. Requirements). Durabiity If correcty instaed, Kootherm K12 can have an indefinite ife. Its durabiity depends on the supporting structure and the conditions of its use.

Resistance to Sovents, Fungi & Pests The insuation core is resistant to short term contact with petro and with most diute acids, akais and minera ois. However, it is recommended that any spis be ceaned off fuy before the boards are instaed. Ensure that safe methods of ceaning are used, as recommended by the suppiers of the spied iquid. The insuation core is not resistant to some sovent based adhesive systems, particuary those containing methy ethy ketone. Adhesives containing such sovents shoud not be used in association with this product. Damaged boards or boards that have been in contact with harsh sovents or acids shoud not be used. The insuation core and facings used in the manufacture of Kootherm K12 resist attack by mod and microbia growth, and do not provide any food vaue to pests.
