Abstract
Abstract A process for promoting the adhesion of cementitious material to the surface of closed cell generally smooth skinned foam materials which process comprises the sequential steps of (1) applying to the foam surface a substantially continuous first coating of a thermoplastic styrene-butadiene-1,3 copolymer having a styrene to butadiene weight ratio of about 30:70 to 70:30, and based on the weight of said copolymer, (a) from about 2 to about 10 percent of non-ionic surfactant, (b) from about 0.75 to 7.5 percent of anionic surfactant, at least about 15 percent of which is a sodium alkyl sulfate in which the alkyl group contains 9 to 17 carbon atoms, the sum of (a) and (b) not exceeding about 11 percent by weight of said copolymer and the weight ratio of (a) to (b) being within the range of about 0.7:1 to 10:1, then (2) applying an aqueous hydraulic cementitious material to the coated surface prior to substantial dehydration of said first coating, and (3) allowing said cementitious material to harden. Such process is particularly adapted for the preparation of delamination resistant composite panels for use in building construction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
A process for promoting the adhesion of a portland cement protective covering to the surface of closed cell, generally smooth skinned styrene polymer foam material which process comprises the sequential steps of (1) providing in said foam surface a plurality of indentations therein, (2) applying to said surface a substantially continuous first coating of a thermoplastic styrene-butadiene copolymer latex consisting essentially of a styrene-butadiene-1,3 copolymer having a styrene to butadiene weight ratio of about 30:70 to 70:30, and based on the weight of said copolymer, (a) from about 2 to about 10 percent of non-ionic surfactant, (b) from about 0.75 to 7.5 percent of anionic surfactant, at least about 15 percent of which is sodium alkyl sulfate in which the alkyl groups contain 9 to 17 carbon atoms, the sum of (a) and (b) not exceeding about 11 percent by weight of said copolymer and the weight ratio of (a) to (b) being within the range of about 0.7:1 to 10:1, then (3) applying a portland cement protective covering to the coated surface prior to substantial dehydration of said first coating, and (4) allowing said portland cement protective covering to harden.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
191 words
A process for promoting the adhesion of a portland cement protective covering to the surface of closed cell, generally smooth skinned styrene polymer foam material which process comprises the sequential steps of (1) providing in said foam surface a plurality of indentations therein, (2) applying to said surface a substantially continuous first coating of a thermoplastic styrene-butadiene copolymer latex consisting essentially of a styrene-butadiene-1,3 copolymer having a styrene to butadiene weight ratio of about 30:70 to 70:30, and based on the weight of said copolymer, (a) from about 2 to about 10 percent of non-ionic surfactant, (b) from about 0.75 to 7.5 percent of anionic surfactant, at least about 15 percent of which is sodium alkyl sulfate in which the alkyl groups contain 9 to 17 carbon atoms, the sum of (a) and (b) not exceeding about 11 percent by weight of said copolymer and the weight ratio of (a) to (b) being within the range of about 0.7:1 to 10:1, then (3) applying a portland cement protective covering to the coated surface prior to substantial dehydration of said first coating, and (4) allowing said portland cement protective covering to harden.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
29 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said indentations are generally in the shape of a trapezoid with the short parallel side of the indentation opening at the foam surface.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
The process of claim 2 wherein said portland cement protective covering is vibrated after application to the coated foam surface as a means of seating a portion of such protective covering within said indentations.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
174 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said portland cement protective covering consists essentially of an admixture of portland cement, mineral aggregate and from about 5 to about 25 percent based on the weight of said cement of a styrene-butadiene-1,3 copolymer having a styrene to butadiene weight ratio of about 30:70 to 70:30, water in amount of from about 25 to 65 percent based on the weight of said cement, and based on the weight of said copolymer, (a) from about 2 to about 10 percent of non-ionic surfactant, (b) from about 0.75 to 7.5 percent of anionic surfactant, at least about 15 percent of which is a sodium alkyl sulfate in which the alkyl group contains 9 to 17 carbon atoms, and (c) from about 0.1 to 5 percent of a polyorganosiloxane foam depressant based on the weight of active polyorganosiloxane, the sum of (a) and (b) not exceeding about 11 percent by weight of said copolymer and the weight ratio of (a) to (b) being within the range of about 0.7:1 to 10:1.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 4 wherein said portland cement is a shrinkage compensating cement.
