摘要:
A method for producing foam insulation board, the method comprising forming a foam product as part of a continuous process, where said foam product includes at least one side edge, monitoring on-line the compressive strength of the foam product, along said at least one side edge, and adjusting said step of forming a foam product in view of data obtained from said step of monitoring.
摘要:
An insulation board (10) insulation board comprising a foam core (11) selected from the group consisting of polyisocyanurate and polyurethane materials and mixtures thereof; the board being devoid of facers. A method of covering roofs comprises applying insulation boards to a roof deck, the insulation boards comprising a foam core selected from the group consisting of polyisocyanurate and polyurethane materials and mixtures thereof, the boards being devoid of facers; and, applying a weather protective layer over the insulation boards. A continuous method of making a facerless insulation board comprising the steps of feeding a first sheet (24) of temporary facer material into a laminator (25); depositing a foamable polymer liquid (40) onto the first sheet; feeding a second sheet (23) of temporary facer material into the laminator above the foamable polymer liquid; allowing the polymer liquid to rise between the first and second sheets forming polymer foam (44) of a pre-determined thickness; curing the polymer foam under heat (45) to create the insulation board; removing the first and second sheets from the board prior to final curing and cooling; and cutting the board to desired lengths.

A composite recovery board (10) includes a foam core (11) selected from the group consisting of polyisocyanurate and polyurethane materials and mixtures thereof; a facer (15), applied to one major surface (13) of the foam core and formed from a sheet selected from the group consisting of reinforced polymer material and reinforced cellulosic material, wherein the polymer material and cellulosic material are reinforced with a material selected from the group consisting of glass strands, glass fibers, and mixtures thereof and, gypsum board (14), applied to the opposite major surface (12) of the foam core. A method of reroofing a roof includes applying composite recovery boards of the present invention to a roof deck; and, applying a weather protective layer over the recovery boards. A continuous method of making a composite recovery board includes feeding gypsum board (14) into a laminator assembly (21); depositing a foamable polymer liquid (36) onto the gypsum board; feeding a facer material (15) into the laminator assembly above the foamable polymer liquid; allowing the polymer liquid to rise between the gypsum board and facer material forming polymer foam of a pre-determined thickness; curing the polymer foam under heat (44) to create the composite board; and cutting the composite board to desired lengths.
摘要:
A roofing system includes a construction board positioned over a roof deck and a plurality of fastening plates positioned on a top surface of the construction board. At least one connector extends between two of the plurality of fastening plates and is positioned on the top surface of the construction board. The construction boards may be insulation or cover boards, and in certain embodiments may be polyisocyanurate boards. Fasteners are driven through the fastening plates and the construction boards and into an underlying roof deck to secure the construction boards in place.

摘要:
A covered roof includes a roof deck, an insulation board, and a coverboard. The insulation board includes a polyurethane, a polyisocyanurate, or a mix of polyurethane and polyisocyanurate cellular structure, has a density that is less than 2.5 pounds per cubic foot, and has a first planar surface and a second planar surface, each having a facer positioned adjacent thereto. The coverboard includes a polyurethane, a polyisocyanurate, or a mix of polyurethane and polyisocyanurate cellular structure, has a density greater than about 2.5 pounds per cubic foot and less than 6 pounds per cubic foot, an iso index of at least 175, and a first planar surface and a second planar surface, each having a facer positioned adjacent thereto.
