Plastic Rail System And Other Building Products Reinforced With Polymer Matrix Composites
US Patent:
2004000, Jan 15, 2004
Filed:
May 19, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/441530
Inventors:
Byeong Jo - Blue Bell PA, US
Richard Duncan - Royersford PA, US
Richard Duncan - Royersford PA, US
International Classification:
B32B027/04
US Classification:
428/297400
Abstract:
Polymeric building materials are provided which include a composite reinforcement comprising continuous filaments of fibers substantially oriented in at least a first direction within a polymeric matrix. The composite reinforcement includes a higher tensile strength and a lower rigidity than aluminum. The building material further includes a capstock polymeric material disposed substantially over the composite reinforcement. The building material is resistant to heat deformation and corrosion. This invention also includes methods for constructing such polymeric composite building materials, including in the preferred embodiments, pultrusion and extrusion steps.
Plastic Rail System Reinforced With Fiberglass Thermoplastic Composites
US Patent:
2003009, May 22, 2003

Richard Duncan - Royersford PA, US
International Classification:
B32B027/04
US Classification:
428/297400, 428/299400
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a consolidated form of the commingled continuous filaments of glass fibers and polymeric fibers as reinforcement. The consolidation of the commingled fibers into composite reinforcement can be used in a continuous form or bulk molding compound pellets. The consolidation of the commingled fibers into composite reinforcement can be made in-situ during in-line extrusion of the final end product extrudate, or prepared as a tape or rod and incorporated into an off-line extrusion of final product. The bulk molding pellets are used solely or diluted with an addition of polymeric material for mono or co-extrusion or compression molding.

International Classification:
E04C 1/00
US Classification:
052309800
Abstract:
A reduced thickness and/or reduced width insulation product is provided for use in combination with spray-on foam insulation. The insulation product is configured to be inserted into standard-size spaces between adjacent wall studs to which a spray-on foam insulation has been applied. The reduced size of the insulation product is specifically designed so that the combined width and thickness of the insulation product and the spray-on foam insulation fill the entirety of the building space, but do not overfill the space.
