摘要:
An insulation product includes an elongated batt of fibrous insulation material, and a facing adhered to a major surface of the batt, wherein the facing is a coextruded polymer film of barrier and bonding layers, with the bonding layer having a softening point lower than the softening point of the barrier layer, with the bonding layer being one or more materials of the group consisting of ethylene N-butyl acrylate, ethylene methyl acrylate and ethylene ethyl acrylate, and wherein the facing has been heated to a temperature above the softening point of the bonding layer, but below the softening point of the barrier layer, whereby the facing is adhered to the batt by the attachment of the bonding layer to the fibers in the batt due to the softening of the bonding layer.
摘要:
Fibrous insulation suitable for use in insulation cavities in buildings includes mineral fibers in an amount within the range of from about 90 to about 99 percent by weight, and organic material, in the form of organic fibers and organic particles, in an amount within the range of from about 1 to about 10 percent by weight. The mineral fibers and the organic material are integrated together so that the organic material is distributed generally uniformly among the mineral fibers. At least a majority, or about 50 percent by weight and, more preferably, a substantial amount, or about 75 percent by weight, of the organic material is in the form of organic fibers. The fibrous insulation is preferably binderless and encapsulated.
摘要:
A multiple conformable insulation assembly is provided and includes at least two mineral fiber batts of a binderless fibrous material of substantially long fibers interconnected to one another. Interconnection allows for the simultaneous installation of multiple batts. The insulation assembly is capable of conforming and expanding its shape to an area into which it is installed better than prior art insulation assemblies. The batts are preferably interconnected through the use of a support layer.
摘要:
A method for collecting long glass fibers produces substantial lattice uniformity, eliminates the need for binder, and results in a generally rectangular wool pack which displays significant compressibility and recovery desired for commercial products. Generally spiral flow of fibers in the veil is captured on collecting conveyors and conveyed through direct forming apparatus with generally minimal disturbance of the spiral relationship between glass fibers. Further, a system is disclosed for producing wool insulation products of long glass fibers in accordance with the method. The principles and practices of the method and system may further be employed with short fibers to produce a wool pack of generally oriented short fibers.
摘要:
An irregularly shaped glass fiber is provided which enjoys improved resiliency, and openness in pack structures. Wool packs and other wool portions having such irregularly shaped fibers may be processed directly through needling to form a non-woven material without intervening steps such as carding or blending of fibers which accompany conventional glass fiber processing operations. In a further aspect of the invention, a non-woven material including irregularly shaped fibers in a generally continuous wool tow is produced by "unwinding" a fiberglass wool pack collected by a direct forming method. Product applications include simplified, lower cost processing, and new uses of the irregularly shaped fibers produced by rotary fiberization in filtration elements, sorbants, gaskets, packings, shingles, composite structural elements, furnishings, textiles, yarns, and blown-in insulation systems.
摘要:
An insulation assembly and method of making is disclosed. A fiber pack is engaged along its side edges to tuck the fibers inwardly and also establish a desired width. The insulation assembly has the longitudinally extending tucks along each of its side edges and each of the side edges has a generally concave cross section.
摘要:
A method of forming an integrated pack of organic and mineral fibers includes centrifuging mineral fibers from molten mineral material using a mineral fiber spinner, directing the mineral fibers into a downwardly moving veil, generating an array of aligned organic fibers from a die and directing the organic fibers into contact with the mineral fibers to integrate the organic fibers with the mineral fibers, and collecting the integrated mineral fibers and organic fibers as a fibrous pack.
摘要:
A conformable insulation assembly is provided and includes a mineral fiber batt of a binderless fibrous material of substantially long fibers having low dimensional stability. The insulation assembly is capable of conforming and expanding its shape to an area into which it is installed better than prior art insulation assemblies.
