This Standard covers the graphite sheets made of graphite only, having the thickness of 100 µm or less.

This Standard specifies the quality of stock solution based on the specification of the quality of spray-applied rigid polyurethane foam obtained when it is spray-applied under definite conditions where the actual application is assumed.

This Standard is not applicable to the heat insulation materials used under atmospheric conditions of particular temperature and humidity such as a cold-storage warehouse, and the heat insulation materials used for facility equipment, piping, etc. for dwellings or buildings.

This Standard is applicable to the cellular plastic thermal insulation materials in which fluorocarbons 1) are not used as a foaming agent.

The comparison table between previous and current editions of this Standard on technically significant revisions is given in Annex 1.

Note 1) Generic term for hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC).

Hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) (HFO-1233zd, HFO-1336mzz and others) does not fall under this category.

In this Standard, the cellular plastics thermal insulation materials in which fluorocarbons1) are not used as a foaming agent are included in the scope.

This Standard is not applicable to the thermal insulation materials used under the condition at particular temperature and humidity such as a cold-storage warehouse, and the heat insulation materials used for facility equipment, piping, etc. for dwellings or buildings.

Note 1)Fluorocarbons refer to chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) and hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), but do not include hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) which is represented by HFO-1233zd and HFO-1336mzz.
