Abstract
A product comprises a fiber cement substrate, and a porous, closed cell foam joined to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate.
Description
- The present invention relates to building materials generally, and more specifically to fiber cement exterior building materials.
- For more than 100 years, asbestos fiber cement materials were prevalent in such building products as roofing. In the 1980's, as the dangers of asbestos became known, replacement building materials were sought.
- One proposed replacement for asbestos has been unbleached cellulose fibers, with about 35% cement, and about 55% fine ground silica, such as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,030,447, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated by reference. This product is autoclave (steam heat and pressure) cured. It is generally made on a Hatschek machine. Cellulose fiber cement building products have surged in popularity in recent years. A variety of products are available in fiber-cement, including siding, shakes, and panels. Fiber cement products are strong and durable. Advantages of fiber cement products include consistent quality and excellent dimensional stability, class 1 (A) fire rating, imperviousness to wood-boring insects, resistance to damaging effects of salt spray and UV rays, and rot resistance.
- However, cellulose fiber cement materials do not perform as well as asbestos fiber cement materials in that the cellulose fiber cement materials have lower resistance to water induced damage, higher water permeability, higher water migration ability (also known as wicking) and lower freeze thaw resistance when compared to asbestos cement composite materials. These drawbacks are largely due to the presence of water conducting channels and voids in the cellulose fibers. The pore spaces in the cellulose fibers can become filled with water when the material is submerged or exposed to rain/condensation for an extended period of time.
- U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003/0056458 is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. This publication describes a fiber cement panel in the form of horizontal planks or laps that have a strong “shadow line” or perceived thickness such that individual planks can be discerned from a distance without further increases in thickness of the fiber cement, to maintain a low material cost, weight and to maintain handling characteristics of long siding planks. The fiber cement plank assembly is comprised of a fiber cement siding plank, a region for fastening the siding plank to a mounting surface, and a locking overlap region on an inner surface of the siding plank near the lower end of the plank. The locking overlap region allows the fiber cement siding plank to be stacked with other siding planks in a manner such that the region for fastening of an adjacent plank is covered by the locking overlap region, and wherein the locking overlap region sets the gauge of the exposed plank face and allows for leveling of the plank during installation. The lock may include compressible regions, which allow the planks to be easily interlocked during installation and provides lateral compensation for non-planar mounting surfaces. The compressible material can also act as a seal against wind and rain. Thus, the compressible material helps prevent infiltration of water into the fiber cement plank.
- An improved fiber cement product and methods of making the same are desired.
- In some embodiments, a product comprises a fiber cement substrate, and a porous, closed cell foam joined to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate.
- In some embodiments, a product comprises a fiber cement substrate and a closed cell foam joined to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate, at least one major surface of the foam having a plurality of grooves therein.
- In some embodiments, a method comprises: providing a fiber cement substrate, and joining a porous, closed cell foam to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate.
- In some embodiments, a method comprises: providing a unitary panel, section of siding, soffit, shingle or shake including a fiber cement substrate and a porous, closed cell foam joined to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate. The panel, section of siding, soffit or shake is mounted on a building surface.

-
FIG. 1A is a side elevation view of a first example according to one embodiment of the invention. Aproduct 100 comprises afiber cement substrate 102 and a porous,closed cell foam 104 bonded to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate. The substrate may be shaped as a section of siding, a shake, a shingle, a soffit, a roofing tile or shingle, or a panel. In this example, thesubstrate 102 is a section of lap siding intended for installation in an overlapping configuration with abottom portion 102 b of a first (upper) section of siding overlying atop portion 102 t of an adjacent second (lower) section of siding. - The substrate may be made of any fiber—cement composition. For example, the material may be, but is not limited to, any of the cellulose fiber—cement compositions described in any of U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,030,447, 6,572,697, 6,676,745, 6,676,745, all of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties, as though fully set forth below.
- The foam 104 (shown in
FIG. 1A ) covers a rear surface of thesiding 102, except in an overlap region 102 o ofpreferred embodiment 102, where the section of siding or shake is to overlap the top 102 t of the adjacent section of siding or shake immediately below the section of siding or shake. Thus, thefoam 104 covers a rear major surface of the section of siding or shake 102, except in a relatively narrow region 102 o adjacent to alongest edge 102 b of the substrate. Relatively narrow indicates that the width of theregion 102 is small relative to the width (distance between the two longest edges of the substrate). For example, in some embodiments, a section of lap siding may have a length of about 12 feet and a width from about 5.25 inches to 8.25 inches, with the uncovered region 102 o being about 1.25 inch wide. This configuration simulates a board in appearance, and may include an ornamental grain pattern. Other lengths and widths may be used. Thefoam 104 may be joined to thesubstrate 102 with or without an adhesive 106, as described further below. - The foam may be any of a variety of (porous or non-porous) closed cell foams. A closed cell foam will not soak up and hold water the way a sponge does. A
preferred foam material 104 for example, can be a porous, closed-cell composite, formed by fusing together resilient, closed cell polymer beads only at their tangent points, providing a durable, non-absorptive composite that allows water to flow freely through the interstices throughout the material and to drain from the foam. The foam may be made of a thermosetting resin, such as polyurethane, or a thermoplastic resin, such as an olefin, like polypropylene or polyethylene, for example. Examples of suitable foams are “BREATHE-N-DRAIN™”, FPP2.1, FPP3.0, and FPP5.5 porous, closed cell polypropylene composites made by Brock USA of Boulder Colo., or FPE2.7, FXPE2.1 and FXPE 3.2 porous closed cell polyethylene composites, also made by Brock USA. Alternatively, polystyrene and polyurethane foams could be used. - As shown in
FIGS. 1A and 1B , thesiding 100 further comprises an adhesive 106 for bonding the foam to the substrate. Suitable adhesives include, but are not limited to, UV curable adhesives and hot melt adhesives, such as polyamines and urethanes, glue, thermosetting or thermoplastic adhesives, pressure sensitive adhesives or solvent-based adhesives. Other suitable adhesives include, but are not limited to Super77 multiple adhesive and high-strength 90 spray adhesive by Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co. (3M), St. Paul, Minn. Similarly, any of the other embodiments shown inFIGS. 1A-1D , 2A-2B, 3A-3B or 4A-4B may also use an adhesive to bond thefoam substrate - The
foam 104 provides a number of advantages when bonded to thefiber cement substrate 102. Use of a porous,closed cell foam 104 provides a drainage path for any water or moisture that infiltrates behind thesiding 102. Because drainage is improved, the likelihood of water induced damage to thefiber cement substrate 102 is reduced. In some instances, the improved drainage can provide a diminished probability of occurrence of mold formation behind a siding element. Thefoam 104 provides additional advantages of a sound absorbing barrier, added thermal insulation, easier installation by providing a support and spacer (as discussed below with reference toFIGS. 1C to 1D), and protection during shipping. Depending on the type of foam used, and the desired thermal resistance, thefoam 104 may in some cases eliminate the need for insulation that might otherwise be interposed between the house wrap and the siding. Further, for configurations where separate insulation is eliminated due to the use of foam backedsiding 100, the exemplary siding reduces labor and installation costs. - In the example of
FIGS. 1A-1D , thesubstrate 102 is flat, and thefoam 104 is flat before installation (as shown inFIG. 1A ).FIG. 1B shows how two of the overlappingsections 100 of siding or shakes fit together. It will be understood by one of ordinary skill that thesections 100 are installed on a building exterior sequentially on the exterior sheathing orsurface 110 of a building. Although only two courses of siding are shown inFIG. 1B , any number ofsections 100 of siding may be installed on the building, as appropriate to cover a complete wall. - The
initial course 100 of siding may be positioned and aligned by first fastening a starter strip (e.g., a wood strip or other suitable material) 109 at the bottom of theexterior surface 110 of the exterior wall. The starter strip levels the siding, and also positions the siding at an angle with the bottom 102 b spaced from thebuilding surface 110, to provide the appearance of clapboard. An example of one alternative suitable material may be a metal strip (not shown) that may combine the functions of starter strip, spacer, flashing, and as a termite shield. Eachsubsequent siding course 100 is supported and aligned by the section immediately below it, as explained below. - Each section or shake in the
siding course 100 has atop edge 102 t that supports thebottom edge 104 b offoam 104 of the adjacent section of siding immediately above it.FIG. 1C is a rear elevation view showing thefoam 104 extending along the entire length of the section of siding.FIG. 1D is a front elevation view showing how thetop edge 102 t of the lower section ofsiding 100 supports thebottom edge 104 b of thefoam 104 in the adjacent section of siding immediately above. Thus, thefoam 104 provides a means to support the upper section ofsiding 104 along a portion of, or its entire length, during and after installation. This simplifies installation, because the upper section ofsiding 100 is easily aligned parallel to the lower section of siding along its entire length, without the use of any external tooling, spacers or fixtures. With this configuration, sections of siding can readily be installed by a single person, instead of requiring two people, as was typical with prior art fiber cement siding planks. - As best seen in
FIG. 1B , thefoam 104 substantially fills the space between thesubstrate 102 and theexterior surface 110 of the building. Depending on the thickness of the foam and the distance between the exterior surface and thebottom edge 102 b of the siding substrate, there may be asmall air space 107. In the example ofFIG. 1B , the top 102 t of the substrate is very close to the exterior surface 110 (e.g., between about 0.06 inch and 0.12 inch), while the bottom edge of the substrate is spaced from the surface 110 (e.g., by about 0.25 inch), so that thefoam 104 is optionally compressed near the top of thesiding 100. (Incompressible foam may be used, for example, as shown inFIGS. 3B and 4B . The incompressible foam would be pre-shaped to orient the adjacent overlying substrate at the desired angle.) By sizing the foam thickness according to the distance from the bottom edge of thesubstrate 100 to theexterior surface 110 of the building, the space is substantially filled. Although thefoam 104 is illustrated as having a substantially uniform cross sectional thickness, it may not always be uniform, For example, the foam can have one or more cavities, thicker and thinner cross-sections, or the like. -
FIGS. 2A and 2B show another example of a foam-backedfiber cement substrate 200 in the form of anexterior shake panel 200 having a plurality ofdistinct substrate portions 202 a-202 c that are separated from each other by aslot 202 s therebetween, but are all joined to acommon section 202 d. Preferably, to simulate distinct shakes, the patterns are discontinuous at theslots 202 s between a side edge of one “shake portion” (e.g., 202 a) and an adjacent side edge of the adjacent “shake portion” (e.g., 202 b). In this example,adjacent shake panels 200 overlap each other, but the overlap occupies a greater fraction of the entire area of theshake panel 200 than the overlap shown inFIG. 1B . Thus, as shown inFIG. 2B , thefoam 204 covers one major surface of thecommon section 202 d, while theoverlap regions 202 a-202 c are not covered withfoam 204. The foam is bonded using an adhesive 206, which may be the same as adhesive 106 described above. In other embodiments (not shown), the foam extends partially down the length ofsubstrate portions 202 a-202 c. AlthoughFIG. 2B shows an adhesive 206, in alternative embodiments, thefoam 204 is bonded without adhesive. - In one embodiment, shown in
FIG. 2C , a pattern is on oneside 202 f (“the front”) of thesubstrate 200, and thefoam 204 and adhesive 206 are on theopposite side 202 e (“the rear) of the substrate. Then, thepanels 200 are mounted with the foam facing thebuilding members 212. - In another embodiment shown in
FIG. 2D , a pattern is on oneside 202 e (“the front”) of thesubstrate 200, and thefoam 204 and adhesive 206 are on thesame side 202 e (“the front) of the substrate. (A separate starter piece offoam 213 may be placed behind the bottom portion of thebottom panel 200 to orient thesubstrate 202 at the appropriate angle. A final set ofshake sections 202 a-202 c—not shown—without thecommon section 202 d may be mounted over thefront facing foam 204 of the top panel 200). - In this embodiment,
foam 204 from an adjacent lower panel would be visible behind theslots 202 s of a given panel, and would be exposed to sunlight and precipitation. Thefoam 204 could be colored (e.g., the color of the patterned side of the substrate, or black) to provide a desired appearance. The foam could also be stabilized with anti-oxidants and light stabilizers, and a weather resistant coating to protect the foam from the sun, wind and rain. For example, the foam may include from about 0.1% to about 0.25% of UV absorber of the benzotriazole or benezophenone type. - In still another embodiment, the
panel 200 may have two different patterns and/or colors. A first pattern and/or color may be provided onside 202 e and a second pattern and/or color may be provided onside 202 f. If the pattern on side 2 f is desired, the installer installs thepanel 200 withside 202 f facing outwards, and thefoam 204 to the rear (facing the building members 212), as shown inFIG. 2C . If the pattern on side 2 e is desired, the installer installs thepanel 200 withside 202 e facing outwards, and thefoam 204 to the front (facing away from the building members 212), as shown inFIG. 2D . With two different patterns and/or colors on opposite sides of thesame panel 200, manufacturers, distributors and contractors are provided greater flexibility in inventory management. -
FIGS. 3A and 3B show another embodiment of a section of siding, shakes, soffit orpanel 300 having afiber cement substrate 302 andfoam 304, in which thefoam 304 is tapered prior to installation. Thefoam 304 is tapered from a relatively large thickness adjacent the narrow overlap region 302 o to a relatively small or substantially zero thickness at asecond edge 302 t opposite the bottom (longest)edge 302 b. By using a taperedfoam 304, a compressible foam is compressed less during installation, particularly at thetop edge 302 t of thesubstrate 302. In some types of foam, this may reduce or prevent compaction of the beads that could result in reduction of the interstices between foam beads. Thus, the tapered foam may allow for freer drainage than a foam of uniform thickness that is compressed when installed. Also, the use of a contouredfoam 304 preferably allows the space between theexterior sheathing 310 and thesubstrate 302 to be filled with foam. The foam can be bonded using an adhesive 306, which may be the same as adhesive 106 described above. In alternative embodiments, thefoam 304 is bonded without adhesive. -
FIGS. 4A and 4B show another embodiment of a soffit orpanel 400, comprising afiber cement substrate 402 andfoam 404 covering an entire rear major surface of the soffit or panel. Thesubstrate 402 may have any of a variety of surface patterns and textures, such as stucco, for example.FIG. 4A shows apanel 400.FIG. 4B shows twopanels 400 installed on the exterior sheathing orsurface 410 of a building. In the case of apanel 400, there is no overlap between adjacent panels. Instead, thepanels 400 abut each other. Therefore, by covering the entire rear face of thesubstrate 402 withfoam 404, a continuous insulation and drainage path is provided behind thesubstrate 402. - The embodiment of
FIGS. 4A and 4B includesfoam 404 joined to thesubstrate 402 without the use of adhesives. In one embodiment, to bond the foam to the substrate, thefoam 404 can be poured directly onto the rear surface of thesubstrate 402, and then the foam is allowed to solidify. Preferably, the foam is poured on in the form of bubbles or beads of approximately the same size or diameter, so that interstices are formed between the cells of the foam to allow drainage. Polypropylene and polyethylene are both thermoplastic, and would be suitable foam materials for this purpose. It is contemplated that some thermosets, such as polyurethane or epoxy, may also be suitable foam materials for this purpose. - As an alternative to pouring the
foam 404 onto thesubstrate 402 and solidifying the foam, a sheet of foam can be fused to the major surface of the substrate by application of heat and pressure. For example, the heat can be applied to the surface of the foam that is to face the substrate, or the heat can be applied to the substrate, prior to interfacing the foam sheet to the bonding surface of the substrate. - Alternatively, the
foam 404 can be mechanically fastened to the substrate 402 (e.g., using staples, flanges or prongs). For example,FIG. 4A shows a plurality ofstaples 403 andprongs 405 attaching thefoam 404 to the substrate. - Although examples are provided above in which the substrate is shaped as a section of siding, a shake, a soffit, a roofing tile or shingle, or a panel, other substrate shapes may be used. For example, various configurations of foam backed trim pieces having differing aspect ratios may be formed using the materials and methods described above. Such trim pieces may be used for example, at corners and along edges of the foam backed siding of
FIGS. 1C-1D , or the panels ofFIGS. 4A, 4B , 5A and 5B. - A method for forming the siding, shake(s), soffit or panel includes providing a
fiber cement substrate - A porous,
closed cell foam fiber cement substrate foam - For example, if the substrate is shaped as a section of siding or a shake, then the bonding step preferably includes covering a rear surface of the siding or shake with the foam, except in a region where the section of siding or shake is to overlap a neighboring section of siding or shake. If the substrate is shaped as a section, panel, shake or shingle of siding or roofing, then the bonding step preferably includes covering a rear major surface of the fiber cement substrate with the foam, except in a relatively narrow region adjacent to a longest edge of the substrate. If the substrate is a soffit or a panel, then the bonding step preferably includes covering an entire rear major surface of the soffit or panel.
- In some embodiments, such as described above with reference to
FIGS. 1A-1D , 2A-2B, and 3A-3B, the bonding step comprises: providing the foam in the form of a sheet, and bonding the foam to the substrate with an adhesive. Optionally the panels shown inFIGS. 4A, 4B , 5A and 5B could be bonded using an adhesive (not shown). - In other embodiments, such as the panel shown in
FIGS. 4A and 4B , thefoam 404 is directly bonded to thesubstrate 402 without an adhesive therebetween. In one embodiment, the foam can be formed in place directly on thesubstrate 402. The foam can also be directly bonded to other types of substrates (e.g., siding), so long as the overlap area (to which the foam is not to be bonded) is masked to prevent the foam from covering that region. -
FIGS. 5A and 5B show another variation of the panel shown inFIGS. 4A and 4B comprising afiber cement substrate 502 andfoam 504 covering substantially an entire rear major surface of the soffit or panel (except for an overlap area with an adjacent panel). Thesubstrate 502 may have any of a variety of surface patterns and textures, such as stucco, for example.FIG. 5A shows apanel 500.FIG. 4B shows twopanels 500 installed on the exterior sheathing orsurface 510 of a building. InFIGS. 5A and 5B , thefoam 504 is vertically offset from thesubstrate 502, to provide overlap on both upper and lower edges of asiding piece 500 that would have a butt-joint face appearance. In this configuration, none of the exterior sheathing orsurface 510 is exposed at the joint betweenadjacent panels 500. Also the path length for entry of moisture is increased, thereby modulating and preferably reducing the potential for moisture intrusion. -
FIGS. 6A and 6B show another embodiment of aproduct 600 comprising afiber cement substrate 602 havingfoam 604 bonded thereto. Thesubstrate 602 can be any of the substrate types described above (section of siding, a shake, a soffit, a roofing tile or shingle, or a panel). Thefoam 604 can be any of the foam materials described above, and can be joined or bonded to thesubstrate 602 by any of the methods described herein. Thefoam layer 604 differs from the foam layers 104, 204, 304, 404 or 504 in thatfoam layer 604 has a plurality of grooves orchannels 605 on at least one major surface thereof. Thefoam 604 is a closed-cell foam, to prevent sponge-like absorption of water. Because of the presence of thegrooves 605,foam 604 may optionally be porous or non-porous. - The
grooves 605 in the back of thefoam 604 enhance water drainage. Thus, thegrooves 605 should be oriented in a direction with a substantial vertical component in the expected installed orientation of theproduct 600 on a building exterior 610 (FIG. 6B ). In the case of panels, which may be installed in either “portrait” or “landscape” orientation, theproduct 600 may be fabricated in two different versions: a portrait version (FIG. 6C ) with thegrooves 605 c in thefoam 604 c parallel to the long sides of thepanel 600 c, and a landscape version (FIG. 6D ) with thegrooves 605 d in thefoam 604 d parallel to the short sides of thepanel 600 d. - Alternatively, as shown by
panel 600 e inFIG. 6E ,grooves 605 e infoam 604 e may be oriented in a diagonal or other off-vertical direction to accommodate variable direction installation while enabling gravity assisted drainage. Although the direction vector of the grooves has a vertical component, thegrooves 605 e are oriented in a direction that is not parallel or perpendicular to side edges of thepanel 605 e. In one embodiment, a pair ofgrooves panel 600 e, to modulate drainage of water from sides of the panel. For example, if the panel is mounted in portrait format, groove 607 drains water from theupper grooves 605 having their bottoms along the side of the panel. If the panel is mounted in landscape format (withgroove 609 on the right),groove 609 drains water from theupper grooves 605 having their bottoms along the side of the panel. - The grooves or
channels 605 in the foam could be any width and depth. The spacing between thegrooves 605 may be any distance, and may be varied within a single section of siding, a shake, a soffit, a roofing tile or shingle, or apanel 600. The ratio between the portion of the foam covered bygrooves 605 and the non-grooved portions 607 (which may be otherwise flat, e.g., curved or textured surfaces) of the foam between the grooves may be varied. And the portions between grooves are not required to be straight, but can be wavy, for example. Although the illustratedgrooves 605 have a substantially semi-circular cross section, other groove or channel cross-sectional shapes may used, such as, for example, semi-elliptical, rectangular or V-shaped grooves. - Preferably, the grooves or
channels 605 face away from thesubstrate 602, so that the entire major surface of thefoam 604 facing thesubstrate 602 can be bonded to the substrate. This allows a simpler bonding operation, and better bonding. In other embodiments (not shown), the grooves or channels face the substrate. In still other embodiments (not shown), the grooves may be provided on both major surfaces of the foam. Respective pairs of grooves on both major faces may be directly opposite each other, or they may be interleaved, or mixed in relative configuration. - A method of using an exemplary product comprises: providing a unitary panel, section of siding or shake, the panel, section of siding or shake including a fiber cement substrate and a porous, closed cell foam bonded to a substantial portion of a major surface of the fiber cement substrate, and mounting the panel, section of siding or shake on a building surface. The exemplary products can be fastened to the building by a variety of fasteners, including, but not limited to, nails, staples, screws, and the like or, alternatively adhesive means such as, for example, glues or tapes.
- In some embodiments (as described above with reference to
FIGS. 3A and 3B ), the foam is tapered from a relatively large thickness adjacent the narrow region not covered by the foam to a relatively small or substantially zero thickness at a second edge of the substrate. The second edge of the substrate is one of the two longest edges, and is opposite the edge that is adjacent the narrow uncovered region. When the foam is thus tapered, the method of using the product further comprises: overlapping a second section of siding or shake with the first section of siding or shake, so that a rear surface of the foam on each of the first and second sections of siding or shakes contacts the building surface. - If the foam covers a rear surface of the siding or shake, except in a region where the section of siding or shake is to overlap a neighboring section of siding or snake (e.g., as shown in
FIG. 2C ), the mounting step includes positioning the section of siding or shake so that a rear major surface of the foam contacts the building surface and acts as a spacer to position the region of the section of siding or shake at a non-zero distance from the building surface. - If the foam faces the front (as shown in
FIG. 2D ), the mounting step includes using the foam as a spacer. The top edge of the foam may possibly also be used as an indictor for positioning of a subsequently applied panel. That is, asecond panel 200 would be mounted with the top of theslots 202 s below the top edge of the immediately preceding panel (the adjacent panel immediately below). This way, the top edge of the adjacent panel immediately below is not visible through theslots 202 s. - If the foam covers a rear surface of the siding or shake, except in a region where the section of siding or shake is to overlap a neighboring section of siding or shake (
FIG. 2C ), then the mounting step includes positioning the section of siding or shake so that a bottom edge of the foam rests on a top edge of an adjacent section of siding or shake. If foam is on the front (FIG. 2D ), the bottom edge of the foam is at or above the bottom edge of an overlaid adjacent section of siding above the panel (preferably the upper edge of the foam is at or above the top of the slots of the overlaid adjacent panel. Then the foam is continuously visible along the length of the slots from top to bottom, and the top edge of the foam is hidden. - Although the invention has been described in terms of exemplary embodiments, it is not limited thereto. Rather, the appended claims should be construed broadly, to include other variants and embodiments of the invention, which may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and range of equivalents of the invention.
