Description

FIRE-RESISTANT MULTI-LAYER MEMBRANE
Field of the Invention [0001] The invention pertains to multi-layer membranes, and in particular, multi-layer membranes with fire-resistant properties for use in various applications, including for example as roofing and flooring underlayments.
Background of the Invention
[0002] Multi-layer membranes are known in the art. One of the challenges surrounding the manufacture of multi-layer membranes is their stability upon exposure to severe weathering. For example, the layers within the membrane could delaminate from each other upon exposure to high temperatures. It is desirable for a multi-layer membrane to maintain stability under severe weathering. The present invention is directed to improved multi-layer membranes with fire-resistant properties.
Summary
[0003] One aspect of the invention provides a multi-layer membrane with high thermal stability, i.e., the membrane being capable of maintaining its structure when exposed to adverse weathering such as at temperatures of below -20 C and greater than about 60 C
for periods of greater than 12 months. A multi-layer membrane with high thermal stability allows its layers to remain bonded with each other without delamination after being exposed to adverse weathering.
[0004] The multi-layer membrane has at least a polymeric layer containing a water-resistant coating bonded to a fire resistant component. The fire resistant component has at least a first fire resistant coating bonded to a carrier layer. The water resistant polymeric layer may be bonded to the first fire resistant coating or the carrier layer.
Some embodiments of the invention include a second fire resistant coating bonded to the carrier layer on a surface opposite to the first resistant coating. An outer surface of the water Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 resistant polymeric layer which is arranged to be exposed to the environment may be mechanically and/or chemically modified to provide slip resistance. In some embodiments, a sacrificial anti-slip layer is arranged on the outer surface of the water resistant polymeric layer. In such embodiments, an outer surface of the anti-slip layer may be mechanically and/or chemically modified to provide slip resistance, while the outer surface of the water resistant polymeric layer remains smooth. The multi-layer membrane may be applied on a surface of a structural support member (e.g., a roof) by means of mechanical fasteners, or adhesive. In some embodiments, the multi-layer membrane further includes a back bonding layer bonded to the second fire resistant coating or the carrier layer to provide self-adhesive properties. In such embodiments, the back bonding layer is releasably attached to a release liner. Some embodiments of the invention include a support fabric bonded between the water resistant polymeric layer and the fire resistant component. A middle bonding layer may be bonded between the support fabric and the fire resistant component.
[0005] Further aspects of the invention and features of specific embodiments of the invention are described below.

Detailed Description
[0017] The invention provides multi-layer membranes with fire resistant properties. The multi-layer membranes of this invention achieve a Class A rating when tested according to UL 790 and/or ASTM E-108 Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Roof Coverings.
Referring to Figures 1 to 5, the multi-layer membrane 10 has a water resistant polymeric layer 12 positioned at a top layer arranged to be exposed to the environment and a fire resistant component 13 bonded to the water resistant polymeric layer 12. The fire resistant component 13 comprises a carrier layer 14 bonded to a first fire resistant coating 16. In some embodiments, the first fire resistant coating 16 is bonded between the water resistant polymeric layer 12 and the carrier layer 14 (as shown in Figure 1). In some embodiments, the carrier layer 14 is bonded between the water resistant polymeric layer 12 and the first fire resistant coating 16 (as shown in Figure 2). The water resistant polymeric layer 12 may Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 comprise one or more thermoplastic components to form a water resistant coating, and the coating optionally further includes organic and/or inorganic fillers, colorants, ultraviolet light absorbers, dyes, pigments and other suitable additives. The thermoplastic component may be any suitable plastic polymer material including for example polyolefin such as polypropylene and polyethylene, polyolefin elastomers such as thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) polymers, and/or acrylic polymers such as resins that include methyl-acrylate. The weight of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 may be in the range of from about 10 gsm to about 80 gsm. In an example embodiment, the water resistant polymeric layer 12 comprises about 50% to about 80% by weight of polypropylene, about 15% to about 30% by weight of low density polyethylene (LDPE), about 0.5% to about 8% by weight of UV additives, and about 0.5% to about 12% by weight of colorants.
[0018] An outer surface 18 of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 may be chemically and/or mechanically modified so as to provide slip resistance properties. For example, the outer surface 18 may be embossed with a texture. An embossed surface includes a plurality of depressed portions and elevated portions. The outer surface 18 may alternatively be coated with an anti-slip additive such as thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), Reptyle FXTM, foaming agents, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), sand, and lace coating.
[0019] The carrier layer 14 may be made of any thermally resistant materials, e.g., materials with low thermal diffusivity. Examples of materials with low thermal diffusivity include metal foil or film such as aluminum foil, woven (e.g., plain weave, twill weave, or satin weave) or non-woven fiberglass, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), silicone rubber, felt (e.g., carbonized felt), polymeric fleece (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fleece), other non-woven polymeric material including fabrics made by a needle-punch process, and fire retardant mats (e.g., an expandable graphite mat). The weight of the carrier layer 14 may be in the range of from about 100 gsm to about 1,000 gsm. In an example embodiment, the carrier layer 14 is made of woven fiberglass which contains 100% silicon dioxide.
[0020] The first fire resistant coating 16 includes a first filler 24 mixed with a first carrier 26. In some embodiments, the fire resistant component 13 includes two layers of fire resistant coating, with the first fire resistant coating 16 and a second fire resistant coating Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 28 bonded to opposing surfaces of the carrier layer 14 as illustrated in Figure 3. The second fire resistant coating 28 has a second filler 30 mixed with a second carrier 32. The second fire resistant coating 28 may have the same composition as or a different composition from the first fire resistant coating 16, i.e., the materials used for the first and second fillers 24, 30 and/or the first and second carriers 26, 32 and the amounts contained therein may be the same or different. The first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 apply onto opposing surfaces of the carrier layer 14 to form three separate layers. The first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 may be applied onto opposing surfaces of the carrier layer 14 when the coatings 16, 28 are in liquid or molten form. In some embodiments, the carrier layer 14 is free from any fire resistant coatings 16, 28, i.e., the carrier layer 14 is not impregnated with any fire resistant coatings 16, 28. In some embodiments, the carrier layer 14 contains less than about 20% of fire resistant coatings 16,28 impregnated therein.
[0021] The first and second fillers 24, 30 are made of substances that have fire resistant properties. In some embodiments, the first and second fillers 24, 30 are made of an intumescent substance, such as expandable graphite, ammonium polyphosphate (APP), melamine (MEL), boric acid, bisphenol A (BPA) and polyamide amine, or combinations thereof. Intumescent substances expand when they are heated beyond an onset temperature, thereby creating a foamed cellular charred layer on the surface.
This foamed layer has low thermal diffusivity and therefore retards the spread of fire. In some embodiments, the onset temperature of the first and/or second filler 24, 30 is at least 160 C, in the range of from about 180 C to about 200 C.
[0022] The first and second fillers 24, 30 can, however, be any inorganic and/or organic fillers. Examples of suitable inorganic fillers include titania, clay, silica, fumed silica, alumina (A1203), aluminum trihydrate-ATH (Al (OH)3) and combinations thereof. Examples of suitable organic fillers include halogenated flame retardant, non-halogenated flame retardant, other olefinic fillers and combinations thereof.
[0023] Any materials suitable for binding the first and second fillers 24, 30 can be used as the first and second carriers 26, 32. The first and second carriers 26, 32 may be an organic or inorganic material. Examples of suitable materials for use as the first and second carriers 26, 32 include polyvinyl chloride (PVC), silicone, acrylic, polyurethane, ethylene Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM rubber), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) or epoxy carriers or resins. In some embodiments, a filler content in the first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 is in the range of from about 20% to about 80% by weight, and a carrier content in the first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 is in the range of from about 20% to about 80%. The weights of the first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 may be in the range of from about 20 gsm to about 250 gsm. In an example embodiment, the first and second fire resistant coatings 16, 28 comprise 60% by weight of expandable graphite as the fillers 24, 30, and 40% by weight of an acrylic binder as the carriers 26, 32.
[0024] In some embodiments, the multi-layer membrane 10 further includes a support fabric 34 bonded between the water resistant polymeric layer 12 and the first fire resistant coating 16. The support fabric 34 may be bonded directly to the first fire resistant coating 16, or may be bonded to the first fire resistant coating 16 by a middle bonding layer 36, as illustrated in Figure 4. In the latter embodiment, the support fabric 34 stabilizes the adhesion of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 to the middle bonding layer 36, facilitating a strong lamination between the water resistant polymeric layer 12 and the first fire resistant coating 16, reducing the likelihood of delamination of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 from the first fire resistant coating 16.
[0025] The support fabric 34 can be any suitable materials that can provide reinforcement to the membrane 10, such as a woven (e.g., plain weave, twill weave, or satin weave) or non-woven scrim or mat. Examples of suitable materials that can be used to form the support fabric 34 include fiberglass, polyolefin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), and polyester such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The weight of the support fabric 34 may be in the range of from about 10 gsm to about 200 gsm. In an example embodiment, the support fabric 34 is made of woven fiberglass which contains 100% silicon dioxide. As another example, the support fabric 34 is a non-woven scrim such as a lay-up fabric.
[0026] Referring to Figures 6 to 10, the multi-layer membrane 10 optionally includes a sacrificial anti-slip layer 20 bonded to the outer surface 18 of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 such that the anti-slip layer 20 becomes the top layer that is arranged to be exposed to the environment. As used herein, a "sacrificial layer" means that the layer can Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 be removed or omitted without affecting the functionality of the membrane. The anti-slip layer 20 may include a non-woven polymeric layer, and optionally combined with colorants, ultraviolet light absorbers, dyes, pigments and other suitable additives such as other anti-slip additives (e.g., thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), Reptyle FXTM, foaming agents, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), sand, and lace coating) and fire resistant additives. The non-woven polymeric layer of the anti-slip layer 20 can be any suitable polymer, including for example polyolefin such as polypropylene and polyethylene, polyolefin elastomers such as thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), and polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). An outer surface 22 of the anti-slip layer 20 may be smooth, or may be chemically and/or mechanically modified to provide further slip resistance properties. In embodiments in which a multi-layer membrane 10 includes the anti-slip layer 20, the outer surface 18 of the water resistant polymeric layer 12 is not chemically and/or mechanically modified, i.e., the water resistant polymeric layer 12 does not provide anti-slip resistance. The weight of the anti-slip layer 20 may be in the range of from about 15 gsm to about 220 gsm. In an example embodiment, the anti-slip layer 20 comprises about 80% to about 99% by weight of polypropylene, about 0.5% to about 8% by weight of UV additives, and about 0.5% to about 12% by weight of colorants.
[0027] The multi-layer membrane 10 may be installed onto a surface of a structural support member (e.g., a roof) by mechanically attaching it to the surface by means of for example mechanical fasteners that penetrate the multi-layer membrane 10 to engage the structural support member.

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24
[0028] The middle and back bonding layers 36, 38 (if one or both are present in the multi-layer membrane 10) comprise an adhesive composition suitable for securing the support fabric 34 to the first fire resistant coating 16 and for securing the second fire resistant coating 28 to the structural support member respectively. In some embodiments, the middle and/or back bonding layers 36, 38 is made of a polymeric material such as a thermoset or a thermoplastic to form a pressure sensitive adhesive (i.e., an adhesive that forms a bond when pressure is applied to bond the adhesive with a surface) or a temperature sensitive adhesive (i.e., an adhesive which is activated by heat).
In some embodiments, the middle and/or back bonding layer 36, 38 is made from butyl rubber or rubber modified asphalt (bitumen). In some embodiments, the middle bonding layer 36 is made from a polymeric bonding layer such as ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), LotaderTM, thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), and/or thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO). In some embodiments, the middle and/or back bonding layers 36, 38 are free from inorganic fillers.
The weight of the middle bonding layer 36 may be in the range of from about 20 gsm to about 500 gsm.

[0029] In some embodiments, one or both of the middle and/or back bonding layers 36, 38 is free from rubber modified asphalt (bitumen). The presence of bitumen in the multi-layer membrane 10 can reduce the thermal stability of the overall membrane, and consequently lowering the shelf-life of the product.
[0030] A release liner 42 is releasably attached to the back bonding layer 38 for protecting the back bonding layer 38 until use. The release liner may be made of paper, polyolefins such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), or polyester such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). One or both sides of the release liner may be coated with a release coating composition containing for example silicone.
[0031] Additional layers can be added to the multi-layer membrane 10 for purposes such as for providing further reinforcement. For example, an additional support fabric can Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-24 be included in the multi-layer membrane 10, bonded between the middle bonding layer 36 and the first fire resistant coating 16. The additional support fabric increases the lamination strength between the water resistant polymeric layer 12 and the first fire resistant coating 16, and/or provides an interface between the anti-slip layer 20 and the first fire resistant coating 16. The additional support fabric may be made of a non-woven or woven polymeric layer, film, foil, non-woven, or woven mat.
[0032] The multi-layer membrane 10 can be applied on a variety of different surfaces such as plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), gypsum, thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM
rubber), metal and concrete, which makes it useful for various applications, such as flooring and roofing underlayments.
[0033] The multi-layer membrane of this invention passes each of the ASTM E 108 and UL 790 Standard Test Methods for Fire Tests of Roof Coverings, as well as one or more of ASTM D 1970 (Standard Specification for Self-Adhering Polymer Modified Bituminous Sheet Materials Used as Steep Roofing Underlayment for Ice Dam Protection), ICC ES AC
188 (Criteria for Roofing Underlayments), ICC ES AC 48 (Severe Climate), ASTM

(Standard Specification for Asphalt-Saturated Organic Felt Used in Roofing and Waterproofing), ASTM D4869 (Standard Specification for Asphalt-Saturated Organic Felt Underlayment Used in Steep Slope Roofing), CAN/CSA A123.3 (Asphalt saturated organic roofing felt), and TAS 103 (Test Procedure for Self-adhered Underlayments for use in Discontinuous Roof Systems).
[0034] The multi-layer membrane 10 has a total weight of greater than about 500 gsm, and ranging from about 500 gsm to about 2,000 gsm, and a thickness of greater than about 40 mils, and ranging from about 40 mils to about 70 mils.
