Abstract: An underlayment material has a fiber mat partially infused and/or coated with asphalt and coated with silicone coating. A selvedge edge, may be coated or uncoated. The back of the underlayment has a self-adhesive coating, which is protected before use by a siliconized release film. The upper surface of the underlayment is coated with silicone composition providing waterproofing and radiation control. When unsaturated, the selvedge edge of fibrous material establishes a reinforced bond with an overlying sheet. When saturated with asphalt, the bond at the selvedge edge between adjacent sheets is between the asphalt layer of the selvedge edge and the adhesive on the bottom of the adjacent sheet.

Abstract: As described herein, the invention includes a building underlayment sheet that comprises an underlayment lamina having a top surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface includes an interior portion and a selvage portion that extends from the interior portion of the bottom surface to a terminal distal edge of the sheet and the interior portion of the bottom surface bears a self adhesive layer. The selvage portion of the bottom surface bears a bonding composition that is capable of bonding to a top surface of a second underlayment lamina to form a full lap joint. In some embodiments, the self adhesive layer includes an asphalt, a polymer such as poly(styrene-butadiene-styrene)(SBS), and a tackifier, and/or the bonding composition includes asphalt, a polymer such as poly(styrene-butadiene-styrene), ground tire rubber (GTR), and tackifier.

Abstract: A radiant barrier has a layer of a flexible polymer, such as TPO, and a layer of metallic aluminum bonded thereto. A reinforcement layer, such as a fiberglass scrim, and a layer of adhesive, such as EVA, may be used to strengthen the barrier and prevent de-lamination. LDPE may be incorporated into the TPO to increase strength. The barrier may also be a moisture barrier. The layers may be laminated by a heated roll set and the aluminum applied by vapor deposition.

Abstract: An adhesive composition has an asphaltic base. A plasticizer, solvent, resin, calcium carbonate, fumed silica, talc an adhesion promoter, a moisture scavenger and a catalyst are included in the adhesive. The resin may be a silylated prepolymer, two part urethane, one part urethane prepolymer, or two part epoxy. Optionally a micronized polyamide wax is added to the composition. Further optionally, an asphalt hardener and/or a silica flour may be included in the mix.

Abstract: What is provided are compositions of matter and methods for making the compositions of matter, which comprise a limestone and clay slurry for pavement and driveway sealer products. The pavement sealer composition comprises a limestone and clay slurry and an asphalt emulsion. The limestone slurry comprises wet limestone, bentonite and kaolin clay. The asphalt emulsion comprises an asphalt emulsion blend made from an asphalt emulsion concentrate.
