Description

(54) A FIBRE-REINFORCED, BUILDING BOARD AND ITS MANUFACTURE (71) We, PARAISTEN KALKKI OY - PARGAS KALK AB, a Finnish Joint Stock Company of 21600 Parainen, Finland, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement: The present invention relates to fibre-reinforced, building board and its manufacture.
It is known to manufacture fibre-reinforced building boards in which the bonding agent is cement or gypsum, the presence of resin or protein binders being undesirable for optimum fire resistance. When the manufacture takes place using asbestos-cement wet process machines, the fibres and the bonding agent are mixed with water to form a thin slurry, from which excess water must be removed during the manufacture of the board. This process has the advantage that large fibre quantities can be incorporated to form a product which is strong and tough. The alternative casting process commonly used for the manufacture of gypsum board has a drawback in that the incorporation of fibres into the product is difficult, and consequently its strength generally remains low.
The asbestos-cement processes require asbestos and cellulose, e.g., as waste paper, as fibre material. If, however, the cellulose content is increased substantially at the expense of the asbestos, or if only cellulose is used, the fire-resistant properties of the product obtained are considerably poorer than those of ordinary asbestos-cement-cellulose board. The board splits faster in a fire test.
In a board according to the present invention this disadvantage has been eliminated by adding gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) to the board in addition to clement. In a fire the water of crystallisation liberated from the CaSO.2H20 cools the board and its slow speed of liberation retards the splitting of the board and thereby improves its fire-resistance.
Further, the CaSO.2H20 reduces the weight of the product and improves its machining properties so that the board can be machined using normal woodworking tools. Compared with ordinary gypsum board, the present product has considerably greater strength, tenacity and wet strength.
The invention accordingly provides a fibre-reinforced. building board comprising by weight 5-30C/o of organic or inorganic fibres, 10-70% of calcium sulphate dehydrate ()-204j of a mineral filler, and 10-80G/c of resin- and protein - free cement binder. the percentages being based on the total weight of the board.
A board according to the invention has, as a bonding agent, cement in an amount of 10 to 80% by weight. The board contains calcium sulphate dihydrate in an amount of 10 to 70% by weight, at least half of which. at the start of the manufacturing process. is preferably in hemihydrate form. CaSO4 . 1/2H,'O (Plaster of Paris). The manufacturing process is in that case sufficiently long for substantially all of the hemihvdrate to change, water being present, into the dihydrate before the board is made. However, the dihvdrate can be used directly, e.g. in the form of uncalcinated waste gypsum. making expensive calcination plants unnecessary.
The mineral fillers that can be used include limestone. fly ash, ceyssatite. slag. and quartz. in an amount (when used) of 5 to 2()' by weight.
The fibres can be cellulose. e.g. as waste paper, or asbestos or other organic or inorganic fibres such as rockwool. glasswool or glassflbre. or various type of plastics fibre. In such boards, in a fire the calcium sulphate dihydrate retards the splitting of the board and improves its fire-resistance.
The board can be manufactured by known asbestos-cement machines. The calcium sulphate is fed either together with the cement or separately into the stock mixer, from which the stock is further fed through a storage container, into a machine in which it is assembled, by a method known per se, into board of the desired thickness which can, if desired, be posteompressed.
The properties of products according to the invention are illustrated by the following Examples.
Example I Boards according to the invention were manufactured using a screw drum machine (Hatschek) normally used for the manufacture of asbestos-cement board. The composition used was as follows: Cement 35% CaSO4 . l/2H2O 50% Cellulose 15% The properties of the product (in which the calcium sulphate hemihydrate had changed to the dihydrate) were: 28-day bending strength in feed direction 19.3 N/mm2 28-day bending strength in transverse direction 9.6 N/mm Density 1119 kg/m The boards could be machined using woodworking tools and the surface was ready for painting.
Example 2 The boards were manufactured as in Example 1. The composition was as follows: Cement 28% CaSO4 1/2H20 42% Cellulose 15% Mineral fillers 15% The product obtained (in which the calcium hemihydrate had changed to the dihydrate) had the following properties: Bending strength in fecd direction 26.1 N/mm Bending strength in transverse direction 12.2 N/mm2 Density 1113 kg/m' Example 3 Test boards of 10 x 1()(1 x 2()() mm were made in a laboratory by filtering and compressing.
Boards were made with both hemihvdrate and dihydrate. the hemihydrate changing to the dihydrate during the process. The composition of the board was as follows: Cement 60% CaSO4.H2O or CaSO ,.2H,0 20% Cellulose 16% Mineral fillers 4% The board obtained had the following properties: CaSO4 . l/2H2O CaSO4 . 2H2O Bending strength N/mm 12.2 13.2 Densitv 1()67 1()84 WHAT WE CLAIM IS: 1. A fibre-reinforced. building board comprising bv weight 5-3()'ic of organic or inorganic fibres. 10-70% of calcium sulphate dihydrate. 0-20% of a mineral filler. and ll)-8()/r of resin - and protein - free cement binder. the percentages being based on the total
