Eisenfuhr Speiser Berlin, April 27, 2012 Our reference: WB 1097-02W0 NUE/zim Applicant/
proprietor: W. QUANDT GMBH& CO. KG
Office file reference: New application W. Quandt GmbH & Co. KG Dachbahnen- und Dachstoff-Fabrik Glasower Str. 3-10, 12051 Berlin, Germany Recyclable bituminous roofing material The present innovation pertains to roofing material which is formed of or more bituminous layers and is also provided with a plastics liner and/or a reinforcement, more particularly of plastic and/or glass.
A roofing material of this kind is known.
In the case of known roofing material, the liner and/or reinforcement is formed, for example, by a nonwoven polyester web and/or glass web, respectively a woven fabric or cloth, or else of a combination of these materials. It is passed through a bath of melted bituminous material, with the bituminous material depositing on the opposite sides on and/or in the liner or reinforcement, and forming a coating.
In the case of known roofing material, the liner and/or reinforcement necessarily has a melting point which is considerably higher than the temperature of the bituminous coating bath, of around 180 C, through which it is conveyed with a corresponding expenditure of force.
In order to be able to process bitumen into a bituminous roofing membrane, it must be liquid. When bitumen is heated to melting temperature, to 50 C or 60 C, for example, it becomes soft. It is therefore not liquid and not yet suitable for processing in a roofing membrane.
In the case of the materials which are generally utilized for the liners, the situation is different. On reaching the melting temperature, these materials turn almost immediately into a liquid form. One of the reasons for this is that their mass is too low, which is for example at 100 g/m2.
The temperature at which the bitumen becomes liquid (in other words the processing temperature) is dependent on the nature of the bitumen. If filler and modifier are added to the bitumen and the bitumen is modified, a bituminous mass is formed, in other words a bitumen compound having a high viscosity. With a modified bitumen of this kind and hence a bitumen compound with numerous additions (fillers, modifier), it is necessary, in order ultimately to give the bitumen compound a liquid form, to hold the processing temperature higher - at 200 C, for example. If only a few additions are present, the bitumen compound may already be liquid at a lower temperature, such as at 100 C. The processing temperature of the corresponding bitumen grade is therefore 100 C.
The melting point of the plastics liner is usually about 250 C, as is the case for the nonwoven polyester web that is often utilized. The bituminous coating bath usually possesses a processing temperature of around 180 C.

If only a few additions are present, the bitumen compound may already be liquid at a lower temperature, such as at 100 C. The processing temperature of the corresponding bitumen grade is therefore 100 C.
The melting point of the plastics liner is usually about 250 C, as is the case for the nonwoven polyester web that is often utilized. The bituminous coating bath usually possesses a processing temperature of around 180 C.
The lifetime of the bituminous roofing material runs to about 25 to 30 years, after which, for example, cracking occurs or the roof covering must be taken down for other reasons. Within this period, the bituminous constituents remain almost intact and are outstandingly suitable, accordingly, for recycling. Since the roofing material wastes, however, contain not only bitumen and bitumen mixture but also the material of the liners and/or reinforcement, the material is often incinerated. This has very detrimental consequences for the environment, and leads to a high level of 002 emission. There is in fact a method known by which the roofing material wastes are recycled, by heating them and recovering the melted bitumen, although even with that method it remains necessary to incinerate the remaining wastes of the liners or reinforcement.
The sense and purpose of the present innovation is = therefore to counteract these disadvantages of the known roofing material.
In principle the liner and/or reinforcement may consist (almost) exclusively of a material having a melting temperature which corresponds to or is below that of the bituminous layer(s).
In a first aspect of the invention, the newly developed roofing material has the feature that the liner and/or reinforcement consists exclusively (or at least near-exclusively) of a material having a melting temperature which is higher than the melting temperature of the bituminous layer or layers and corresponds more or less to the processing temperature of the bituminous layer or layers.
A liner may consist, among other materials, of a plastics nonwoven (non-woven fabric, evidently nonwoven web), a woven fabric, or a cloth.

After attainment of the lifetime and after the associated taking-down, the bituminous roof covering is melted, with that part of the liner and/or reinforcement whose melting point is below that or below the processing temperature of the bitumen or bitumen mixture melting away in the hot liquid bitumen or bitumen mixture. Through a weight ratio of the liner or coating of 1/40, for example, it is possible to disregard the effect of the melted liner or of the support on the quality of the recycled bitumen. A
plastic such as polypropylene may even improve the bitumen quality.
Since the roofing material comprises (almost) exclusively liners having a melting and/or processing temperature which are substantially equal to or lower (or even possibly, to a small extent, higher - but not more than about 20 C) than those and/or than the processing temperature of the bitumen or bitumen mixture, it can be recycled. This takes place in a single step, without any need for mechanical separation of the solid parts from the melted liquid bitumen.
The roof lining in accordance with the invention, furthermore, in a second aspect of the invention, has the feature that a liner and/or reinforcement, more particularly strengthening, is formed exclusively or almost exclusively of wires or loose fibers embedded into the bituminous layer or layers.

In accordance with another feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the liner and/or reinforcement, more particularly strengthening, consists exclusively or almost exclusively of a material having a melting temperature above 200 C.
In accordance with a further feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the fibers and wires consist, among others, of aramide, polyester, or glass, or other fibers having a melting and processing temperature which is the same as or higher than that of the bituminous stratum or strata.
In accordance with yet a further feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the amount of fibers is 0.01 weight percent to 25 weight percent.
plastic such as polypropylene may even improve the bitumen quality.
Since the roofing material comprises (almost) exclusively liners having a melting and/or processing temperature which are substantially equal to or lower (or even possibly, to a small extent, higher - but not more than about 20 C) than those and/or than the processing temperature of the bitumen or bitumen mixture, it can be recycled.

In accordance with another feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the liner and/or reinforcement, more particularly strengthening, consists exclusively or almost exclusively of a material having a melting temperature above 200 C.
In accordance with a further feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the fibers and wires consist, among others, of aramide, polyester, or glass, or other fibers having a melting and processing temperature which is the same as or higher than that of the bituminous stratum or strata.
In accordance with yet a further feature of the roof lining according to the invention, the amount of fibers is 0.01 weight percent to 25 weight percent.

The influence of the fibers or wires on the quality of the recycled bitumen can be disregarded. Since exclusively or almost exclusively loose fibers or wires are incorporated in the roof lining material, said material can be recycled in one step, without any need to carry out mechanical deposition of the solid parts of the melted bitumen.
On the roofs, the quality of the bitumen mixture of the roof covering experiences virtually no change within a period of 25 years, and after recycling may be considered as new or as reusable for the new bituminous roof lining. The result, so to speak, is a sustainable "cradle to cradle" product with no 002 problem.
