NC-2009 IEQc4.1: Low-Emitting Materials—Adhesives and Sealants
The adhesive used for cohering thermal insulation material of piping (like Armacell) should be included in which category of LEED? I think that shold be "Sheet Applied Rubber Lining Operations" but not sure.

Do products applied to the weather barrier need to comply with VOC thresholds?
How do I determine what application my product falls under?
How is VOC % less water determined for aerosol adhesives?
Do grout and caulking need to be included, and if so, what is the application category?

I googled " Sheet Applied Rubber Lining Operations" and found the following:
Rubber Linings are a premium form of corrosion protection for some of the most severe chemical and abrasive environments. Natural and butyl rubber linings withstand a variety of high-concentration acids and are the optimum choice for high heat and abrasive environments. Additionally, the elasticity of a rubber lining easily accommodates thermal expansion and contraction as well as vibration..."
I would think it would be more apt to list as "Special Purpose Contact Adhesive"
Good luck!
