Is CFC-free the same as acid free foamboard? I need it for photo application.

All I really know is that we print off pictures and glue it to this foam board, and it works perfectly.

A quick Google search will tell you no, it is not the same thing. Acid-free foam board is available; if it doesn't say "acid-free", it likely isn't. CFC-free is something else entirely (it means that they didn't harm any polar bears during the manufacturing process).

We have not tested the fun foam for this use. Fun foam is not as stiff as cardstock and it is thicker. It is a craft foam and we do not see any reason why you could not use it.

Yes this is Acid free. It should work with scrap books. However it may bleed.

The box does not mention being acid free, nor does the manufacturers web side (www.smead.com) mention acid free. It does contain 10% post consumer recycled material. The 4x6" card guides product number is 56030, if you want to contact Smead Manufacturing directly. I was impressed by the quality of the index cards. They are heavyweight, most items like this keep getting thinner and thinner. These are sturdy and I will be ordering them again. If it doesn't say acid free, it probably isn't. I am using them as dividers for old family photos, even though I know acid free is always the way to go with photos.

I have no idea if it is acid free, but i do think this item is good for long term storage of Cd's or DVDs. It isn't the sturdiest case you will find, but should do a OK job for long term storage of items. Hope this helps you!!

I don't know about the acid-free thing, but I have been using them for my vacation photos for over 10 years and have not noticed any yellowing. I still use them today and just bought another album last year for our trip to Turkey. I hope I have helped some. So far, I think they they are a pretty good product and I particularly like the large size. H.S. Johnston

Hi. I'm not sure if the paper is acid free. I use it to wrap items that I sell.

I have not heard anyone claim that only the gold tape is acid free. The package says that it is acid free and I have no reason to believe otherwise. I have used this tape for some time now and have not seen any ill effects from it use. In fact, it is my favorite tape for all of my scrapbooking and papercraft projects. Other brands have not held my projects well and have needed to go back and retape or glue after some time has passed. Have not had to retape or glue anything that I have used this on. Hope this helps.

I didn't see anywhere in the package that said acid free. I would NOT store pics in them bc they don't seal. I bought it for storing my large laminated recipe cards in. I personally use the Sterilite nesting boxes from Walmart for my pictures. You can probably find them on here too!

Box indicates NO PVC - ACID FREE - also safe storage for Holograms and UV Protection - I am very happy with them and even though they were a bit expensive - the value is worth it. Hope this helps you

Okay, I did a test on some foam board. It doesn't work very well at all, it still cuts, but starts the paper on fire and is real slow process..and will most likely deform your blade. With plain foam, it cuts just unbelievably well. So, in my opinion, not good on foam board. Use a sharp razor blade.

The recommended backer board is gypsum from Schluter but I am using combination of both Hardie backer and gypsum. Both are mold and water resistance. I used four feet high of cement board and then four feet of mold resistance gypsum board

Yes, the only restriction is that you can't work with CFC's or HCFC's without being EPA 608 or 609 certified.Currently, the EPA allows anyone to work with all HFC's without being certified since their Non-Ozone Depleting (they do have a Global Warming Potential value attached to them so it's still illegal to knowingly vent these refrigerants into the atmosphere).List of common HFC refrigerants that you are likely to run into are as follows...- R-134a- R-410a- R-422d- R-438a- R-407c- R-404a- R-507a

I do not know, I am sorry. I used mine to make "Chalkboard" Paint for use in the house. If the mold is dry, I would expect that you could do so. The carbon fibers and fiberglass should not stick to the mold. If you are worried about it, as previously done with Fiberglass, just put on a light coat of wax to avoid sticking.

No way, man. If you're just starting out and want a foamy, you're going to want a much longer board with better buoyancy:weight. They are expensive, so I suggest renting for a few days and get smart on the characteristics of the board, what length works for you, what's best for your wave conditions, etc.

The foam board you're enquiring about is not weather proof. I would recommend using this product indoors and in a dry environment only.
