Claim 3
Dependent Claim
161 words
In a bituminized roofing material comprising a sheet of bitumen reinforced with a spun fleece of synthetic polyester filaments, said filaments having a filament bonding coating thereon, the improvement which comprises a filament bonding coating consisting essentially of a copolymer of 45 to 55 weight percent of an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester of a monohydric alcohol having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, from 24 to 30 weight percent of acrylonitrile, from 12.5 to 30 weight percent of styrene and from 0.5 to 2.5 weight percent of acrylic acid amide, said roofing material having a. a tensile strength of from 30 to 100 kp/5 cm, b. an elongation at break of from about 20 to 60%, c. an elastic strain of from about 1 to 5%, d. a tear propagating strength of from about 2 to 8 kp e. a nail plucking resistance of from about 13 to 30 kp, and f. a flexural strength of more than 5,000 cycles.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
161 words
In a bituminized roofing material comprising a sheet of bitumen reinforced with a spun fleece of synthetic polyester filaments, said filaments having a filament bonding coating thereon, the improvement which comprises a filament bonding coating consisting essentially of a copolymer of 45 to 55 weight percent of an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester of a monohydric alcohol having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, from 24 to 30 weight percent of acrylonitrile, from 12.5 to 30 weight percent of styrene and from 0.5 to 2.5 weight percent of acrylic acid amide, said roofing material having a. a tensile strength of from 30 to 100 kp/5 cm, b. an elongation at break of from about 20 to 60%, c. an elastic strain of from about 1 to 5%, d. a tear propagating strength of from about 2 to 8 kp e. a nail plucking resistance of from about 13 to 30 kp, and f. a flexural strength of more than 5,000 cycles.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
A roofing material according to claim 2 wherein said polyester is polyethylene terephthalate.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
109 words
The method of making a bituminized roofing material which comprises forming a spun fleece of synthetic polyester filaments, impregnating said fleece with a neutral to weakly alkaline aqueous dispersion of a copolymer of 45 to 55 weight percent of an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester of monohydric alcohol having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, from 24 to 30 weight percent of acrylonitrile, from 12.5 to 30 weight percent of styrene and from 0.5 to 2.5 weight percent of acrylic acid amide, drying said fleece to cause said copolymer to bond the filaments of said fleece, calendering said fleece and thereafter bituminizing and sanding the impregnated and calendered fleece.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
109 words
The method of making a bituminized roofing material which comprises forming a spun fleece of synthetic polyester filaments, impregnating said fleece with a neutral to weakly alkaline aqueous dispersion of a copolymer of 45 to 55 weight percent of an acrylic or methacrylic acid ester of monohydric alcohol having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, from 24 to 30 weight percent of acrylonitrile, from 12.5 to 30 weight percent of styrene and from 0.5 to 2.5 weight percent of acrylic acid amide, drying said fleece to cause said copolymer to bond the filaments of said fleece, calendering said fleece and thereafter bituminizing and sanding the impregnated and calendered fleece.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
13 words
A method according to claim 4 wherein said synthetic polyester is polyethylene terephthalate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 4 wherein said dispersion contains from 10 to 60% by weight of said copolymer.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
28 words
A method according to claim 4 wherein said dispersion contains from 10 to 30% by weight, relative to the solid content of said dispersion, of a melamine-formaldehyde pre-condensate.
