Technical BulletinCapturing the Thermal Performance ofFOAMULAR Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) vs. Polyisocyanurate Exploring the impact of temperature dependent R-values on rigid insulation and building performanceSummaryExtruded polystyrene (XPS) and Polyisocyanurate ( polyiso ) rigid foam insulation are both designed to provide Thermal resistance in residential and commercial building construction applications. For example, in exterior above-grade wall assemblies, a layer of rigid insulation is often specified to comply with the prescriptive R-value requirements outlined in energy codes and standards such as the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) and American Society of heating, Refrigeraton and Air-conditioning Engineer s (ASHR AE) However, despite being used in similar applications, XPS and polyiso have very distinct product compositions that can result in significant Thermal Performance technical bulletin describes how the R-value of rigid insulation changes based on the temperature it is exposed to.
