Abstract

Abstract A heat-insulating sandwich-like composite comprising a core of foamed resin based compound sandwiched between and adhering to single face corrugated board with a high wet strength. The single face corrugated board is perforated prior to foaming of the resin based compound so as to allow the excess of volatile matter to escape and some foaming mixture to penetrate inside the corrugated flute. The composite board further is provided with post-perforations made after foaming the resin compound between the corrugated board skins.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 87 words
A heat-insulating sandwich-like foam composite roofing panel comprising a core of foamed resin compound in adhering contact with, sandwiched between and penetrating into corrugated material comprising an outer liner and corrugated medium, the corrugated medium containing a plurality of pre-perforations, the outer liner containing a plurality of post-perforations for receiving roofing adhesive, the corrugated medium and outer liner being bonded together with a wet strength adhesive selected from adhesives which maintain the bond between the outer liner and corrugated medium over long periods of immersion in water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 87 words
A heat-insulating sandwich-like foam composite roofing panel comprising a core of foamed resin compound in adhering contact with, sandwiched between and penetrating into corrugated material comprising an outer liner and corrugated medium, the corrugated medium containing a plurality of pre-perforations, the outer liner containing a plurality of post-perforations for receiving roofing adhesive, the corrugated medium and outer liner being bonded together with a wet strength adhesive selected from adhesives which maintain the bond between the outer liner and corrugated medium over long periods of immersion in water.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
The heat-insulating sandwich-like composite of claim 1 wherein said corrugated material is single faced corrugated paper.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
