Definitions

  • This invention relates to a cellulose fibre insulation having a low moisture content and a method of application of the insulation to sloped surfaces. More particularly, this invention relates to a cellulose fibre insulation containing one or more additives where the insulation can be sprayed onto sloped surfaces and will adhere thereto even though the insulation has a low moisture content. DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART It is known to combine cellulose fibre insulation with an aqueous solution of one or more adhesives and to spray the resulting mixture onto a wall. A major problem in the fibre insulation industry is that the resulting insulation has a moisture content of 25% or more.
  • the high moisture content can damage the wood framing members or other material within the wall cavity or it may result in conditions that are conducive to the formation of mold. If the support members are damaged, the structural integrity of the building in which the insulation is used can be damaged. Excess moisture can also cause the wood to warp and/or shrink or twist resulting in customer complaints.
  • government regulations prevent the use of fibre insulation where the sprayed on product has a moisture content exceeding a pre-determined level. For example, in Canada, building regulations require that sprayed on insulation must have a moisture content that does not exceed 20% based on the weight of the installed product. Some other jurisdictions do not have any moisture content restrictions but high moisture content spray on insulation creates problems.
  • Previous cellulose fibre insulation and methods of installing such insulation suffer from one or more disadvantages in that the moisture content of the installed product is equal to or greater than 25% of the cellulose fibre by weight, or, the additive required to be mixed with the cellulose fibre is made on a wet basis off site, or, the insulation product is in liquid form at the manufacturing plant and is expensive and difficult to transport to the appropriate installation site, or, components are mixed at the manufacturing plant but begin to separate during transit, or, the final product is expensive and difficult to spray onto a surface, or, the product damages the support structure where the product is installed, or, conditions conducive to mold creation develop on the product with time, or, a barrier such as drywall, plastic film or mesh or netting is required to retain the product in position on a sloped surface, or, the product falls away from the structure where it is installed before it dries, or settles without drying, or the over-sprayed portion of the product is difficult to collect and expensive to dispose of, or, the product produces gases that are harmful to occupants, or, the cellulose
