Definitions

• the present invention relates to a roof comprising a covering support on which a cover is laid, the cover comprising an assembly of sheets of zinc or galvanized steel having one side facing said support, said side being provided with a organic coating.
• Zinc covers are traditionally placed on ventilated fir supports. AT because of the high cost of this traditional support, we are looking to replace it with supports cheaper, in particular non-ventilated supports possibly not compatible with the zinc or galvanized steel such as particle board, plywood, concrete and rigid insulation. However, many corrosion phenomena of zinc coverings have been reported on these non-ventilated supports. To solve these problems it would be necessary, according to document EP-B-0410822, to improve the ventilation between the support of cover and zinc plates to avoid condensation and to isolate the zinc from the support non-ventilated, especially if the support is made of concrete.
• the object of the present invention is to provide a blanket as defined above, which avoids the disadvantages mentioned above.
• said support is non-ventilated and said covering has a thickness of 50 to 150 micrometers, is elastic, durable and waterproof to water vapor, the other side of the sheets being either uncoated or coated by any surface treatment process applied for purely aesthetic purposes.
• the coating quality it is highly recommended that it be applied continuously, in particular between a unwinding station and a winding station, at the zinc sheet producer or in a workshop specializing in application of coatings; the elasticity of the coating must therefore be such that the coated sheet can undergo, on the site or in the workshop of the roofer-zinc-worker, the shaping operations necessary for its installation without the coating being damaged. It is obvious that the coating must be hard enough so that the various manipulations, that the coated sheet must undergo until it is finally placed on the support, do not leave traces in the coating or in any case not deep traces. The thickness of at least 50 micrometers is essential to avoid for sure that possible small scratches undergone as a result of the above manipulations can not discover zinc.
• the coating cannot crack or flake, as it is essential that it remains waterproof to water vapor. It should be noted here that there is a perfect synergy between the zinc sheet and its coating in the sense that they protect each other against the worst of their respective enemies, namely ultraviolet radiation in the case coating and condensation in the case of zinc or galvanized steel.
• Document DE-A-3444669 describes strips of plastic covering of a thickness of about 5 mm, protected by a metallic film of about 0.05 mm on the face outside.
• the metallic film protects the synthetic material from atmospheric influences and also plays an aesthetic role.
• the document recommends a flexible synthetic material and foamy such as polyethylene or expanded polyurethane to promote insulation thermal and sonic; the metallic film can be copper, stainless steel or alloys based on aluminum. This document does not address the issue of ventilation of the media. roofing.
• Document FR-A-2471859 describes a metal sheet with composite coating for use in the production of exterior building materials.
• This sheet metal carries a coating of a composition containing a chloride resin polyvinyl, a powdered metal, a plasticizer and a stabilizing agent, this product having a excellent resistance to atmospheric factors, as shown by a test of accelerated aging entitled "Sunshine Weather Meter Test".
• galvanized sheets covered with either a layer of resin-based paint thermosetting, either a polyvinyl chloride film and / or polyacrylate do not not always suitable from an economic point of view and as regards their resistance for the production of exterior building materials.
• the coating may consist of a layer of paint based on polyester (standard symbol: SP), silicone polyester (SPSI), polyester polyamide (SPPA), epoxy (EP), polyurethane (PUR), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) organosol chloride vinyl (PVCO), vinyl chloride plastisol (PVCP), acrylic (AY) or silicone acrylic (AYS), the thickness of the layer in the dry state being advantageously from 50 to 70 micrometers.
• the painting is advantageously carried out continuously at the sheet producer or in a painting workshop by depositing the paint in liquid or powder form and baking subsequent by passage through an oven. Preference is given to polyester paint deposited in powder form. Such a paint is marketed under the name "Beckryspeed®" by the firm BICHON S.A.
• the coating can also consist of an adhesive film of polyvinyl chloride (PVCF), polyvinyl fluoride (PVFF), acrylic (PMMAF), polyethylene (PEF), polyurethane or polyester, the thickness of the film advantageously being from 80 to 150 micrometers.

• An example of such a film is the low polyethylene adhesive film. density with a thickness of 100 micrometers, which is sold under the reference 4118 by NOVACEL S.A. for economic reasons, adhesive film coating is prefer to paint coating.
• the coating can also consist of a layer of paint as defined above, which is itself covered with an adhesive film as defined above. Needless to say, such coating is even more effective than coating with paint or adhesive film.
• the other side of the sheet is either uncoated or coated with any surface treatment process applied for purely aesthetic purposes. This is how example that this face can be prepatinated.
• the present invention also relates to the use of zinc or steel sheets galvanized, one side of which is provided with a coating as defined and described above and of which the other side is either uncoated or coated for purely aesthetic purposes, for the realization of the cover according to the invention, this embodiment comprising the operations of shaping the sheets necessary for their laying and the laying proper of the shaped sheets.
• the shaping and laying of coated sheets, supplied by the sheet producer, can be do according to current practice.
• a roll of rolled zinc is unwound on a line of finishing together with a roll of plastic film of the same width which includes one side covered with adhesive.
• the film After unwinding, the film is plated on the rolled zinc by means of a set of rollers pressers and the whole is rewound into a reel. This coil will then be cut into width and length suitable for use on construction sites.
• the thickness of zinc is that commonly used for roofing, between 0.65 and 1 mm.
• the plastic film is made of low density polyethylene 100 micrometers thick.
• the adhesive is a mixture of rubber and resin 10 micrometers thick.
• Zinc samples coated with the film were placed in an oven, at 100 ° C. for 6 months, either at 70 ° C for 8 months, or at 40 ° C for 15 months, durations which correspond to more than 10 years of real site exposure on a cover.
• Zinc samples coated with the film were placed in an oven for 60 days, ie at 90 ° C. either at 100 ° C. Beforehand we made folds and stampings on the samples to simulate the deformations that the product will undergo on a site.
• Film coated zinc samples underwent temperature cycles from -20 ° C to + 90 ° C to simulate in real time what is actually happening on a blanket. After 300 cycles (1400 hours) it can be seen that the film has remained well adhered. After 5 days of Kestemich trial (5 cycles) it is noted after removal of the film that the protected face is not corroded then that the other is excessively.

The following tests confirm the good performance of the coating. They were carried out on flat test pieces with a coating of 60 micrometers, including an Erichsen stamping according to ISO 1520, an impact stamping according to ISO 6272, and an OT fold on a side.
• test pieces underwent the accelerated salt spray corrosion test according to the NFX standard. 41002 for 1000 hours. After the test, it is found that the appearance of the coating has not been modified, even on deformed areas, when the unprotected side has been excessively corroded.
