Hi Bees,

Everything you need to know about

Phenolic Insulation
What is Phenolic insulation?
Phenolic insulation is manufactured by a process in which a plastic foam forms an insulating core between two flexible tissue faced layers. It has a high closed cell content and fine cell structure. Rigid phenolic insulation is produced by mixing high solids and phenolic resin with a surface acting agent.

Is Phenolic insulation combustible?
The first indicative test looked at the behaviour of 25mm Xtratherm Safe-R SR Phenolic PIR, a phenolic, fibre-free rigid thermoset material, recognised as "combustible". The second test looked at the behaviour of a rock mineral fibre insulation with a density of 40kg/m3 + 100kg/m3, recognised as "non-combustible".

What is the difference between PIR and Phenolic insulation?
As with the PIR/PUR boards above, phenolic insulation boards also have a closed cell structure. Phenolic board has a slightly higher r-value (higher is better, unlike u-values) and a slightly thinner profile than PIR/PUR boards due to the manufacturing process.
