Final Report - Characterization of Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Andrew K. Persily, Steven J. Nabinger
This report summarizes NIST activities under the FY2013 interagency agreement between the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The objective of that agreement is to develop testing and

Flame Retardant Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Angelica A. Connor, Matthew P. Schlegel, Adam P. Blickley
The desire to build more energy efficient homes in the United States has led to the expansion of the residential spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation industry. Upon application of SPF, reacting chemicals form expanding polyurethane foam that fills

Lessons Learned from Spray Polyurethane Foam Emission Testing using Micro-chambers

October 16, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck, Mengyan Gong, Lauren E. Lawson
Both governmental agencies and the SPF industry consortium have sought more information on potential chemical emissions from SPF to better understand any potential occupant exposures and health impacts. This research was designed to contribute to the

Formaldehyde Concentrations in a Net-Zero Energy House: Real-time Monitoring and Simulation

April 19, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck, Shahana S. Khurshid, William Stuart Dols, Lisa Ng, Brian Polidoro, Steven Emmerich
Measured real-time formaldehyde concentrations in a net-zero energy house were compared to simulated concentrations from a recently-developed, coupled building energy and airflow/indoor air quality model. Measured and simulated formaldehyde concentrations

Measuring Flame Retardant Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam in a Home

April 19, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck, Angelica Connor
The use of spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation in the United States is increasing. The primary flame retardant used in SPF, Tris (1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCPP), has been detected in micro-chamber emission experiments investigating SPF. However

Characterizing Uncertainty of a Formaldehyde Reference Standard

Dustin Poppendieck
High performance buildings need to be energy efficient and provide adequate ventilation for indoor air quality, which can be made easier with low emitting building materials. Based in part on these motivations, the United States Environmental Protection
