A Microbial Resistance Evaluation Of Indoor Materials
airKrete Insulation Sample
Executive Summary / Project Description
Air Quality Sciences, Inc. (AQS) is pleased to present the results of its microbial
resistance evaluation of airKrete's indoor material identified as "airKrete Insulation
Sample. AQS conducted this study using a microbial test protocol following the
requirements of ASTM Guideline D 6329-98 (1). This ASTM method is established to
study indoor materials for their ability to support mould growth. Testing of the indoor
material was conducted using static environmental chambers operating at 75% humidity (considered a "high normal"for indoor commercial spaces) and 95% humidity
(considered an extreme moisture condition within buildings). airKrete's indoor material was inoculated with two representative indoor moulds, Stachvbotrvs chartarum and Eurotium amstelodami, and growth rates were measured over a three-week period as the materials were exposed in the two humidity environments. Mould growth is considered significant if it exceeds 20% of the initial baseline levels. Test methodology and results are given in the attached summary reports.
Results:
Results show that the "airKrete Insulation Sample" was resistant to mould growth at both 75% and 95% relative humidities. Neither moulds were found to amplify in the materials at either humidity.
