Abstract
A sheathing system that envelops a building structure combines lightweight structural layers and a high R-value insulation layer. The insulation layer includes a coated insulation product formed with a low GWP blowing agent composition that is capable of achieving a 180-day R/in insulation value of at least 5. The coated insulation product includes a foam product that is coated with a barrier coating. The collective layers of the sheathing system offer the benefits of decreased thickness, reduced weight, improved thermal insulation, improved structural strength, improved nailability, improved fire performance, and enhanced energy efficiency.
