Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
156 words
An incombustible building material element having good thermal insulation properties produced by (a) spraying the surface of vermiculite granules, while agitating the granules, with a liquid containing an organic binder comprised of a resin mixture or mixed resin having at least one combustible resin component and at least one incombustible nitrogen-containing resin component, wherein the amount of resin, calculated as solid substance, coated on the granules is 2 to 30% by weight, based on the weight of the granules, (b) placing the coated granules in a first press and pressing the coated granules without heating to bond them to form a transportable molded product, (c) placing the transportable molded product in a second press provided with a heating means, and (d) pressing and heating the transportable molded product at an elevated temperature to further bond the granules and organic binder in the molded product to form an incombustible building material element with good thermal insulation properties.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
156 words
An incombustible building material element having good thermal insulation properties produced by (a) spraying the surface of vermiculite granules, while agitating the granules, with a liquid containing an organic binder comprised of a resin mixture or mixed resin having at least one combustible resin component and at least one incombustible nitrogen-containing resin component, wherein the amount of resin, calculated as solid substance, coated on the granules is 2 to 30% by weight, based on the weight of the granules, (b) placing the coated granules in a first press and pressing the coated granules without heating to bond them to form a transportable molded product, (c) placing the transportable molded product in a second press provided with a heating means, and (d) pressing and heating the transportable molded product at an elevated temperature to further bond the granules and organic binder in the molded product to form an incombustible building material element with good thermal insulation properties.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
The molded product of claim 1 wherein the element is provided with at least one outer cover sheet coated on the inside with resin, the said cover sheet being a member selected from the group consisting of paper, glass fleece and aluminum foil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A building material element of claim 1 wherein the combustible resin component is a phenol resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
A building material element of claim 1 wherein the incombustible nitrogen-containing resin component is a urea resin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A building material element of claim 1 wherein the content of urea resin component in the resin mixture or mixed resin amounts to from 10 to 25 mole %.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
A building material element of claim 1 wherein in addition to the organic binder it contains waterglass as additional binder.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
A building material element according to claim 6, characterized in that the proportion of waterglass in the entire amount of binder, calculated as solid material, amounts to at least 10% by weight.
