Building insulation materials is used depends on a wide variety of factors. Some insulation materials have health risks, some so significant the materials are no longer allowed to be used but remain in use in some older buildings such as asbestos fibers and urea. Factors affecting the type and amount of insulation to use in a building include: Considerations regarding building and climate: Often a combination of materials is used to achieve an optimum solution and there are products which combine different types of insulation into a single form. Spray foam is a type of insulation that is sprayed in place through a
Chemical Agent Resistant Coating combined to produce a cured paint film. The materials were designed for resistance to windblown dust, sand and chemical agents. An improvement to solvent-borne polyurethanes, MCU materials offered both lower levels of volatile organic compounds and elimination of hazardous air pollutants. 2) Two-component, high-performance, water-reducible polyurethane: Waterbased CARCs, most commonly used by the military, were composed of water-reducible polyurethane resins, marking the first time a water-based two-component CARC was commercially available. This formulation eliminated several solvents, including methyl isobutyl ketone, toluene and xylene.
