  • Patent number: 4073998
    Abstract: A laminate providing a high strength, low flammability improved moisture vapor barrier for use in producing improved construction panels, to the construction panels which comprise a polyurethane foam interior having a top and a bottom laminate skin bonded thereto, and to the process for producing the construction panels. The laminate is composed of an outer metal skin, e.g., aluminum foil, a scrim and an adhesive tie-coat attaching the scrim to the outer skin. The adhesive tie-coat is carefully selected so that it will react during manufacture of the polyurethane foam to produce the panel and tightly bond the foam to the foil. The tie-coat is preferably a high molecular weight, linear epoxy resin adhesive having free hydroxyl groups which react with the isocyanate, or isocyanurate, used in producing the polyurethane foam.
