Abstract
The structure is formed of a substrate having bonded to it a finished layer on one side, and on the other side a layer of plastics (which may be reinforced) is chemically bonded to form a laminated structure. The plastics layer has a thickness and a density such as to provide the product with resistance to high impact and/or thermal shock. The finished layer is resilient to delamination when subjected to relatively high impact applied directly to the finished and/or plastics layer surface and to delamination when the composite structure is subjected to a sudden temperature change. The substrate may be steel and the finish layer on one or each side may be enamelling. The composite structure is suitable for a sanitaryware product such as a bathtub.
Description
SPECIFICATION
A multi-layer composite structure
This invention relates to a multi-layer composite structure, and in particular, to a composite structure having a layer bonded to the substrate of the composite structure to impart resistance to delamination when subjected to impact and/or thermal shock.
Many attempts have been made by industry to make a multi-layer composite structure including at least a substrate of appreciable strength and stiffness, wherein the layers are resistant to delamination when subjected to high impact or when subjected to thermal shock.
When subjected to high impact from either side of the structure, one of the layers, the finish layer, may deform, crack, craze, or chip, and another layer may delaminate from the substrate.
Delamination may also occur when the composite structure is subjected to thermal shock.
According to the present invention, there is provided a multi-layer composite structure including at least a substrate of appreciable strength and stiffness, having at least one surface to which a layer of plastics is chemically bonded, whereby the composite structure is characterised by high resistance to impact and delamination of the plastics and finish layers from the substrate. The composite structure also has high resistance to thermal shock.
The invention is particularly useful where the substrate is a plumbing fixture such as an enamelled-steel bathtub, shower tray, washbasin, kitchen sink, or a wall panel. In such a structure, the impact and delamination properties are equal to or better than for cast iron, enamelled steel, or fibreglass-reinforced polyster with either an acrylic or gel-coat4inished product of the same configuration.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a plastics-backed enamelled-steel plumbing fixture that is resistant to chipping, cracking, crazing, delamination or deformation when subjected to high impact from either the finished or the reverse side, as compared to presently available porcelainized cast-iron or enamelled-steel plumbing products.
In another embodiment of the invention, a composite structure has a finished layer bonded to one side and on the other side a layer of plastics which is resistant to delamination when subjected to thermal shock.
In a further embodiment of the invention, there is provided a plastics having a silane coupling agent to bond it to an enamelled-steel surface.
In a further embodiment of the invention, an enamelled-steel composite structure has a reinforced-plastics layer chemically bonded to one side.
A relatively inexpensive method for bonding a resin layer to an enamelled-steel plumbing fixture is also provided.
The invention may be put into practice in many ways, but certain specific embodiments will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of an enamelled-steel bathtub constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 2 is an elevational view of one end of the bathtub of Fig. 1;
Figure 3 is a top plan view of an enamelled-steel washbasin constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 4 is an elevational view of the washbasin of Fig. 3;
Figure 5 is a top plan view of an enamelled-steel shower tray constructed in accordance with the invention;
Figure 6 is an elevational view of the shower tray of Fig. 5;
Figure 7 is an isometric view of an enamelled-streel panel constructed in accordance with the invention; and
Figure 8 is a greatly enlarged sectional view taken from within the broken line circles of Figs.
2,4,6 and 7 which illustrates the composite structure of the invention.
In Figs. 1 to 7, enamelled-steel plumbing fixtures and an enamelled-steel wall panel such as is used for bathtub surrounds or shower stalls, are constructed in accordance with the present invention. The bathtub 10, washbasin 12, shower tray 14, and wall panel 16, are all formed having the composite structure 20 shown in Fig. 8.
Composite structure 20 includes a substrate 22 of steel to which enamel layers 24, 26 are bonded on either side. In accordance with general practice in the manufacture of enamelledsteel plumbing fixtures, the enamel layers 24, 26 have a thickness in the range of about 1/64 to 1/32 of an inch (0.39 to 0.79 mm). The enamel consists of inorganic oxides with a high concentration of silicon dioxide, forming a glassy layer when fused to the steel substrate 22.
After the plumbing fixture or wall panel has been enamelled, a plastics layer 28 is bonded to the enamel layer 26. The plastics material may be applied for example, by spray-up, hand layup, reactive or resin injection or insert moulding, or such moulding with reinforcement, or resintransfer moulding (RIM, RRIM, or RTM). The thickness of plastics layer 28 may vary. For example, in the bathtub shown in Fig. 2, the side walls may have a thickness of plastics material as little as 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) and the base or sump as little as 1/4 inch (6.35 mm). Such thicknesses are adequate to provide an effective amount of plastics on the bathtub 10 so that it is resistant to chipping, cracking, crazing, deformation and delamination when subjected to impact forces of energy levels to which an unreinforced product would not be resistant.Also, the plastics layer resists delamination when subjected to thermal shock.
Various resins may be used in practising the present invention, for example: unsaturated polyester containing vinyl monomer, epoxy, polyurethane, isocyanurate, nylon and others. The resin may be either foamed or unfoamed, with or without a filler such as glass fibres and/or aluminium trihydrate when bonded to an enamelled-steel structure. When using unsaturated polyester resin containing a vinyl monomer, the bonding materials or couplers found suitable are the silane coupling agents such as a vinyl silane. for example 3[2(vinyl benzylamino) ethylamino] propyltrimethoxy silane.
The resin can be filled to provide reinforcement by any suitabie material, for example: glass spheres, fibres and weaves; ceramic spheres and fibres; boron; carbon fibres; graphite; wollastonite; an aromatic polyamide fibre, made. for example, by Dupont Co.
The enamelled-steel fixture is incorporated into the composite structure by means of insertmoulding techniques. The resin mixture is introduced into the mould to provide a packing factor of from about 20% to 100%. The packing factor is the ratio of the volume of resin mixture to the volume of the mould.
A typical resin mixture is formulated of the following compounds and materials:
Parts
Unsaturated Polyester Resin Containing 100
Vinyl Monomer (Pioneer 236)
Aluminium Trihydrate 100 1/4" (6.35mm) Chopped Fibreglass 5
(OCF 832-FC)
Cumene Hydroperoxide 0.5
Dimethylethanolamine 3.5
Polymethylene Polyphenylisocyanate 10
(Upjohn Papi 901)
Silicone Surfactant (Dow Corning 193) 0.3
Pigment 0.5
Water 0.25
In practising the invention, it is preferred that the RIM or RRIM process be employed although other means for applying the resin, whether it is foamed or unfoamed, may be used.
For example, an enamelled-steel plumbing fixture such as a bathtub is placed in a mould in which a resin, such as an unsaturated polyester containing a vinyl monomer, with or without a filler, a reinforcement, a surfactant, a catalyst, a blowing agent and a vinyl silane coupler which can be part of the mixture or can be applied to the fixture as a primer, are mixed under high pressure, injected into the mould, and allowed to cure. The mould cycle is at least 1 minute for particulate composite structures or about 3 minutes for a bathtub.
The enamelled-steel bathtub is removed from the mould. The resulting plastics-backed bathtub has bonded thereto a resin foam layer of an unsaturated polyester-polyurethane copolymer which is resistant to delamination when subjected either to high impact forces or thermal shock.
Further, the finished enamel surface 24 is resistant to chipping, cracking, or crazing when subjected to direct impact forces and resists deformation and pop-off of the finish layer when subjected to reverse forces such as are encountered during installation or shipping.
The physical properties and characteristics of the plastics-backed enamelled-steel composite structure are equal to or better than most of the physical properties or characteristics of existing state-of-the-art sanitaryware products. The improved product performance is exemplified by the impact test results shown in the following tables. The testing procedure followed is that of
American National Standard Z 124.1-1 980 4.3 Impact Loads except that the test area has a 3" (76.2 mm) unsupported diameter.
Table I shows the impact that is required to cause damage to the finished surface when the impact is applied to the finished surface of the sanitaryware and is the type of damage that may result after its installation. Table II shows the results of the reverse-impact test, that is, when the load is applied to the plastics-backed surface of the sanitaryware and is the type of damage caused by handling, trucking, and installation.

Another physical property of the plastics-backed enamelled-steel structure of the present invention is its ability to resist thermal shock. A product such as a wall panel is subjected to temperatures of approximately 180"F(82"C), and thereafter the panel is removed from the temperature source and placed in a temperature environment of 0F( - 1 8'C) or below, for example, a freezer. The sudden change in temperature through 1 80 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Centigrade) does not cause delamination of the plastics layer from the enamelled-steel panel.
In a further embodiment of the invention, a thermal-shock resistant composite structure comprises a metal substrate having enamel on at least one side thereof;
the substrate having bonded thereto a finished layer on one side thereof, and on one enamelled side a layer of plastics to form a reinforced laminate;
the plastics layer having a thickness of at least 1/8 in. (3.175 mm) and having a density between about 20 Ibs. per cu. ft. and about 125 Ibs. per cu. ft. (320 and 2000 kg m-3) whereby the composite structure is resistant to delamination when subjected to a sudden temperature change of at least about 180 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Centigrade).
In another embodiment, a high-impact composite comprises a metal substrate having enamel on at least one side thereof;
the substrate having bonded thereto a finished layer on one side thereof and on one enamelled side a layer of plastics material to form a high-impact-resistant laminate:
the plastics layer having a thickness of at least 1/8 in. (3.175 mm) and a density of between about 20 Ibs. per cu.ft. to about 125 Ibs. per cu. ft. (320 and 2000 kg m-3) whereby the finished layer of the composite structure is resistant to delamination when subjected to an impact of at least about 2.0 ft.-lbf. (2.71 Joules) applied to the finished layer and when an impact of at least about 3.0 ft.-lbf (4.07 Joules) is applied to the surface of the plastics layer.
The plastics layer in any of the above-described embodiments may be porous, or non-porous, or a combination of those, some parts being porous and some non-porous.
