Odor: Odorless.
ANTICO ELEMENTS - Headquarters: 3520 NW 46Th Street Unit #4 33142 Miami, Florida United States
Stability and Reactivity Data
Stability: Stable at temperatures below 450F / 323C. Auto ignition can occur above these temperatures or slightly below. Avoid open flames. Hazards: High
temperatures may produce irritating gases like carbon monoxide & hydrogen cyanide. Above 190F / 88C the paint layer may be negatively effected.
Toxicological information
No particular precautions necessary in normal operations. Resin's manufacturer suggest limited presence of:
Main Resin Components: Polyol and Isocyanate
Pigment: Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide
Ecological information
Resin's manufacturer states that the product is not considered hazardous. No Significant environmental exposure in the air or water will arise.
Disposal Considerations
Refrain from dumping into sewer, ground or any body of water. Disposal must be compliant with local and federal laws and regulations.
This material is not a hazardous waste under RCRA 40 CFR 261. Recycle when possible.
Transport Information
The product is packaged in either cardboard boxes, palletized or a mix of both. For EU shipments a pallet of non-solid wood may be required. Plywood or plastic.
Not regulated by DOT, TDG, IPMO/IMDG, ICAO.IATA
Additional Tests And Considerations
Weather Testing - Water, UV, Temperatures
Purpose: Testing resistance toward degradation caused by ultraviolet radiation, moisture, high, low and fluctuating temperatures, oxidation. Tests run over
1 year. Results: Upon rigorous visual inspection minimal evidence of deterioration of the colors, no change in shape, no presence of peeling, shrinkage or
cracking or any degradation due to moisture or water were found. Under ISO11507.
Expansion and contraction thermal test
Expansion & Contraction: Test conducted with temperatures -190F to +130F (-88C to + 54.5C) show a linear thermal expansion of less than 3/32 of an inch.
The test was conducted on a sample of 48" in length. No cracking, pealing or other damage was found.
Installation
As a general practice the product is installed with construction adhesive and screws, nails, staples or other fasteners. Preparation of the substrate
is usually not necessary unless the substrate is lose or has lose parts that are cracking, peeling, which may prevent the adhesion of the panels.

Structural Performance
Great performance during positive and negative wind load, below hurricane-type wind speeds. Under ASTM E330-2. In areas subject to extraordinary weather
condition it is suggested the increase of the amount of adhesives and fasteners.
Tests run on the polyurethane resins used at these densities and product thickness have returned an R-Value of 4.5.
R-Value of insulation
