Randy,

I take it that this is a new product. I developed some years back a phenolic
foam roof insulation and the quality assurance plan going with it (before ISO
9000). A lot boiled down to our understanding of the critical performance
parameters, including our ability to predict long term performance that changed
over time. We developed experimental and theoretical models of the expected
behaviour, as material and as roof system component, and worked back the
specific requirements that included special tests developed for that product.
Many of them were later adopted by ASTM as product standards.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
