Abstract

1528414 Solution welding composition BE BE GE GES F R BODEN BAUTEN-UND UMWELTSCHUTZ mbH & CO KG 13 Feb 1976 [18 Feb 1975] 5685/76 Heading C3M [Also in Division B5] A solution welding paste for joining surfaces together, see Divisions B4-B5, comprises a solvent or solvent mixture, polyisobutylene, polyethylene, chalk, carbon black and/or graphite, calcium stearate, and an age resistor. In an Example, two strips of a composition of polyisobutylene, polyethylene, chalk, carbon black and/or graphite, calcium stearate and an age resistor are joined together along overlapping longitudinal edges using a solution of 20-40 parts by weight of the strip material in 60-80 parts by weight of petroleum hydrocarbon having a boiling range 80-110 C. Other specified solvents are benzene, toluene, decahydronaphthalene, iso-octane, cyclo-hexane, methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride, ethyl acetate, or mixtures with each other or with petroleum hydrocarbon. The solution welding material is applied along an edge of one strip with a brush or spray pistol and the overlapping edge of the other strip is pressed thereagainst by a roller.

Description

The present invention relates to methods of solution welding together of plastics bodies and/or plastics sheet materials, of the same composition, especially of films or strips, and also suitable solution welding agents.
In the laying of strips of polyisobutylene-based material on roofs, it is known to employ a solvent mixture of low viscosity of petroleum hydrocarbon and decahydronaphthalene. The solvent mixture in this case is applied with a paint brush on the surfaces of the two strips to be joined, with continuous uniform rubbing, so that dissolving of the surfaces takes place. After this treatment, the strips are then squeezed or pressed together at the places to be joined. In this method, the following factors especially are regarded as disadvantageous : (a) The solvent mixture must in practice be applied twice, that is to say on both the surfaces which are to be joined. ' ' (b) The rubbing process for dissolving the two surfaces · lis'· time-consuming, and requires extreme care on the part of the layer. (cj. The solution welded seam must, after laying, additionally be sealed with a filler. 4248 - 3 (d) By a non-uniform distribution of the dissolved material during rubbing, reductions in cross section take place at the seam.
Therefore the object of the present invention is to 5 provide a method, which does not exhibit the disadvantages mentioned above. It should produce a real simplification in practice, and leads to welded joints of high quality The essential features of a method according to the present invention are that it is a method of solution welding together of surfaces of two articles of the same composition, each including a plastics material, a filler, and an additive, in which a solution welding material is prepared by mixing a solvent or solvent mixture and a composition identical to that of the articles, so . as to form a paste, applying the paste to one or both of the surfaces to be joined, and pressing the surfaces together.
The invention will be explained below with reference to a particularly preferred embodiment, without being limited to it.
Two similar polyisobutylene-based strips, about 1.5 mm thick, 1 metre broad, and 10 metres long are to be joined together along their longitudinal edges over a seam width of 5 cms, in a homogeneous , strong and water-tight manner. The strips are of strip material which consists of:20 to 30 parts by weight polyisobutylene with a molecular weight between 100,000 and 120,000 (according to Staudinger), 2 4 8 3 - 4 5 to 10 parts by weight polyethylene of medium density, to 70 parts by weight chalk, to 7 parts by weight carbon black, 1 tp 2 parts by weight calcium stearate, and an age resister.
For this purpose, one first mixes 20 to 40 parts by weight of the same polyisobutylene-based strip material and 60 to 80 parts by weight of petroleum hydrocarbon (boiling range 80 to 110°C). Xn place of petroleum hydrocarbon one can also use benzene hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons (for non-inflammable solution welding agents) and other suitable organic solvents. Examples for this are benzene, toluene, decahydronaphthalene, iso-octane, cyclo-hexane, methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride, ethyl acetate, or their mixtures. Of course, if this is desired and possible, one can also mix the solvents mentioned above with petroleum hydrocarbon » The pasty solution welding agent obtained in this way is applied in a single operation with a paint brush or spray pistol over a width of 5 cm along the edge of one of the polyisobutylene-based strips, and the overlapped second strip is pressed onto it with a roller. Of course one can also apply the solution welding agent according to the invention on both the surfaces which are to be joined, but this is not necessary. After a predetermined time, during which the solvent diffuses, a homogeneous seam has resulted. The strength of this seam is so great that, under a predetermined loading of the polyisobutylene-based strip, breakage of the material may indeed occur, but if the solution welding is properly done, the connecting seam is not destroyed. The solution welding paste, which emerges at the seam, simultaneously seals - 5 the abutting edges of the seam, so that the seam joint is automatically made absolutely water-tight.
In practice, the method according to the invention, described above is used for example in the laying of polyisobutylene-based strips on flat roofs. The strips are then unrolled parallel to one another in plan, and overlap over a width of 5 cm. The overlap is then welded homogeneously with the solution welding paste, as described above.
With a method according to the invention, welding together of the edges and sealing of the seam thus take place in one operation, i.e. practically simultaneously, in a simple manner. By the use of a method according to the invention, there is also no longer need for the tedious rubbing of the edges of the film or of the strip. Moreover, the application of the solution welding agent does not require such great care as the rubbing of the edges of the film or of the strip, with a solvent mixture. Moreover, in a method according to the invention, the expenditure of work in laying strips on a roof can fall by more than 50% as compared with previous methods of work. A further fall in expenditure of work is achieved by the employment of suitable devices for applying the solution welding agent and for pressing the strips together. A further advantage of the solution welding agents used in performing the invention, compared with usual solution welding agents, is that the solution welding agents used in performing the invention can still be worked well at a temperature of -10°C, whereas the lower limit with the employment of customary solution welding agents lies around +5°C. - 6 As the preferred compositions according to the invention there are those which consist of a solvent or solvent mixture, polyisobutylene, polyethylene, chalk, carbon black and/or graphite, calcium stearate, and an age resister, especially the embodiment which has been described above in detail.
