Using Polyurethane Spray Foams (SPFs) as insulation in buildings provide durable and efficient thermal barriers. The industry is encouraging the SPF as an effective air barrier system in addition to its thermal insulation characteristics. In an effort to address these issues, a consortium of SPF manufacturers and contractors, jointly with the National Research Council of Canada?s Institute for Research in Construction, (NRC-IRC) conducted an extensive research project to assess the thermal and air leakage characteristics of SPF walls.L?utilisation de la mousse de polyur\ue9thane pulv\ue9ris\ue9e (MPP) comme isolant dans les b\ue2timents procure des \ue9crans thermiques \ue0 la fois durables et efficaces. L?industrie pr\ue9conise l?emploi de...
