1、Designation:C149716Standard Specification forCellulosic Fiber Stabilized Thermal Insulation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1497;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers the composition and physicalproperties of spray-applied cellulosic fiber stabilized thermalinsulation applied to open or
3、 closed ceiling spaces,regardlessof slope,where temperatures range from 49 to 194F(45 to90C).1.2 Stabilized cellulosic fiber thermal insulation is producedby the addition of adhesive(s)to loose-fill cellulosic fiberinsulation.The adhesive(s)are either added to the insulation attime of manufacture an
4、d,if necessary,activated by the additionof water when installed or the adhesive(s)are otherwise addedto the insulation at the time of installation.1.3 This is a material specification that is not intended todeal with methods of application that are supplied by themanufacturer.1.4 The values stated i
5、n inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The SI units given in parentheses are for informa-tion only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety an
