About this file
The document is a technical data sheet for Tremco's ExoAir® 230, a fluid-applied synthetic air and vapor permeable membrane, submitted as part of the KSU Clendenin Building Envelope Repairs project by F.H. Paschen. The submittal cover sheet, dated 9/27/24, is for a Fluid Applied Permeable Membrane manufactured by Tremco, specifically intended for the Kennesaw State University project. The technical data sheet provides comprehensive details about the membrane's characteristics, including its application methods, coverage rates, and physical properties.
The ExoAir® 230 membrane is designed for exterior wall applications, offering features such as UV stability, seamless installation, and the ability to mitigate air infiltration while allowing water vapor transmission. The product is compatible with various substrates including exterior sheathing, concrete block, and insulated concrete forms. It meets multiple industry standards, including ASTM and NFPA 285 fire resistance tests, and can be applied by spray or roller with specific thickness requirements. The membrane comes in standard colors (black and limestone) with custom color options available, packaged in 5-gallon pails and 52-gallon drums, and has a one-year shelf life when stored properly between 40-100°F.

ExoAir® 230 Fluid-Applied, Synthetic Air and Vapor
Permeable Membrane
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ExoAir® 230 Fluid-Applied Synthetic Permeable Air Barrier Membrane is a monolithic, elastomeric membrane designed to be rolled or sprayed onto exterior above-grade wall assemblies to mitigate air infiltration/exfiltration and water penetration while remaining permeable to the passage of water vapor. It may also be used as a liquid-applied flashing, enabling the contractor to address both the membrane and flashing needs with a single material.
BASIC USES
ExoAir 230 is typically applied to exterior sheathing panels, concrete block, poured concrete, wood substrates, Nudura Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF), or insulated concrete forms, as an air and vapor permeable membrane. ExoAir 230 can be used with ExoAir 110, ExoAir 110AT, ExoAir 230 (and mesh) or Dymonic® 100 as liquid applied flashing to detail into the rough opening.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
• ExoAir 230 is a UV stable, seamless, monolithic membrane that creates a fully adhered air barrier when properly installed.
• The ability to roller or spray apply the material affords the contractor the ability to accelerate installation times compared to traditional self-adhered membrane systems.
• The high-performance properties of the ExoAir 230 membrane retard the migration of air and bulk water but allow water vapor to pass through the membrane. As a result, vapor permeable systems like ExoAir 230 allow for more flexibility in the placement of the air barrier membrane in the wall design.
• ExoAir 230 is formulated for UV resistance providing the flexibility to install rainscreen systems with open joints or to allow the membrane to be exposed longer during the construction process.
• ExoAir 230 can be custom colored to meet all of your design needs.
• ExoAir 230 is specifically formulated for design options requiring assemblies that have been evaluated for NFPA 285.
• ExoAir 230 is an approved Water Resistive Barrier when applied to Nudura Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF), or insulated concrete forms.
AVAILABILITY
ExoAir 230 is immediately available from your local Tremco Sales Representative or Distributor. For Distributor locations, visit www.tremcosealants.com
COVERAGE RATES
Exterior Sheathing or Insulated Concrete Forms: Minimum 48 wet mils (25 dry mils); 33 ft²/gal (3.07 M²/US gal)
