| 20110189433 | Roofing Material And Method Of Making The Same - A roofing material comprising an upper surface and a lower surface, wherein the upper surface includes reduced-particle size granules and may further include a reduced-thickness face coating. The thickness of the upper surface is related to the particle size of the granules deposed on the face coating. A smaller particle size granule than those used in traditional roofing shingles is utilized in the upper surface which may allow for a reduced-thickness face coating while not sacrificing the retention of the granules on the surface of the roofing material or desired physical characteristics. The face coating may include a reduced amount of filler material, such as mineral fillers, than face coatings of traditional roofing materials. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20100323572 | Fires Resistant Composite Material And Fabrics Made Therefrom - The present invention relates to fire resistant composite materials and to fire resistant fabric materials and mattresses made therefrom. The composite materials include (a) a substrate selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, lyocell and blends thereof; and (b) a coating consisting essentially of water, ammonium polyphosphate, binder material, cross-linking material, thickener material and a catalyst. The binder material bonds the ammonium polyphosphate, cross-linking material, thickener material and catalyst together and to the substrate such that the substrate is coated with the coating. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100319135 | Fire Resistant Composite Material And Fabrics Made Therefrom - The present invention relates to fire resistant composite materials and to fire resistant fabric materials and mattresses made therefrom. The composite materials include (a) a substrate selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, lyocell and blends thereof; and (b) a coating consisting essentially of water, ammonium polyphosphate, binder material, cross-linking material, aluminum trihydrate, prefarbricated microcells, thickener material, a surfactant, surfactant-generated microcells and a catalyst. The binder material bonds the ammonium polyphosphate, cross-linking material, aluminum trihydrate, prefarbricated microcells, thickener material, surfactant, surfactant-generated microcells and catalyst together and to the substrate such that the substrate is coated with the coating. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100319134 | Fire Resistant Composite Material And Fabrics Made Therefrom - The present invention relates to fire resistant composite materials and to fire resistant fabric materials and mattresses made therefrom. The composite materials include (a) a substrate selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, lyocell, wool, silk and blends thereof; and (b) a coating consisting essentially of water, ammonium polyphosphate, binder material and cellulose filler material. The binder material bonds the ammonium polyphosphate and cellulose filler materials together and to the substrate such that the substrate is coated with the coating. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100055399 | Distortion Resistant Roofing Material - A roofing material, such as laminated shingles, comprising fines deposited on an upper surface of the roofing material, particularly on one or more non-weathering regions, such as on the headlap region, and/or shim layer. The fines may be deposited, for example, as a strip from about 0.5 inches to about 2.5 inches in width and extend the length of the roofing material at a fixed position from one edge of the roofing material to the opposite edge of the roofing material. The fines may comprise mica flakes, copper slag, coal slag, sand, talc, expanded clay, slate flour, powdered limestone or silica dust. | 03-04-2010 |
