Definitions
- Internal and “inside” refer to a side that is most proximate to a space defined by (hence, within) a building structure. In a home structure, the “inside” or “internal” side is the side facing the dwelling side of the structure that is typically heated in cold portions of the year.
- a foamable composition by mixing a thermoplastic polymer composition and, optionally, additives in an extruder at a temperature sufficiently high to soften the polymer composition, and then mixing in a blowing agent at an addition pressure sufficient to preclude appreciable expansion of the polymer composition. It is acceptable to either feed additives directly into the extruder or to pre-mix additives with a polymer prior to addition to an extruder (i.e., compound it or create a masterbatch) . It is desirable to then cool the foamable composition to a foaming temperature and then expel the foamable composition through a die into an environment of lower pressure than the addition pressure. As the foamable composition enters the environment of lower pressure it expands into a polymer foam.
- the polymer foam When the mu value is greater than 50 the polymer foam generally will have too low of a water vapor transmission capability and water condensate will likely build up proximate to a building structure on which the foam resides. At the same time, it is desirable not to have too low of a mu value or the thermal insulating value of the foam becomes too low to be of value and, typically, the compressive strength decreases. Hence, it is desirable for the foam to have a mu value of 10 or more.
- the polymer foam desirably has an open cell content of 40% or more, preferably 50% or more, more preferably 60% or more. Measure open cell content according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) method D2856.
- thermoplastic foam spanning the space between two neighboring support members and attached to the outside surface of two or more of the support members is unique and offers a desirable structure having a combination of high insulating ability, high compressive strength and vapor permeability.
- the thermoplastic foam is useful for insulating, particularly retro-insulating, pitched roofs on building structures such as houses by attaching to outside surfaces of roof structural elements. Roof structures typically comprise spaced apart structural elements such as rafters or furring strips spanning rafters.
