Nansulate® Coatings Testing Information:

Mold specific testing:

EMSL Analytical, Inc., one of the nation's leading testing laboratories, compared mold growth on wooden surfaces coated with Nansulate® HomeProtect, Nansulate® Bee Protect, Nansulate® GP, Nansulate® LDX and Nansulate® Top Coat products to surfaces with no coating. All were exposed to spore-producing bacteria, including Pencillium funiculosum, Aspergillus niger, Aureobasidium pullulans, Chaetomium globosum, and Trichoderma virens. After four weeks, the Nansulate® coatings exhibited zero or minimal mold growths, whereas the uncoated surfaces showed extreme to 100 percent mold coverage.

The test results demonstrate that the Nansulate® coatings are an effective solution against the growth of common and hazardous molds, in addition to providing outstanding corrosion protection and insulation in a single solution.

The testing was conducted by EMSL Analytical, Inc., an AIHA accredited laboratory, and conformed to guidelines defined by the Amercian Society for Testing and Materials in ASTM D 5590, "Standard Test Method for Determining the Resistance of Paint Films and Related Coatings to Fungal Defacement by Accelerated Four-Week Agar Plate Assay," and ASTM G21, "Standard Practice for Determining Resistance of Synthetic Polymeric Materials to Fungi."
