  • Insulation barrier and a method of making an insulation barrier
    Patent number: 5766681
    Abstract: The insulation barrier is formed of a body of foamed polystyrene, either expanded or extruded, which is provided with a protective coating formed of a metallic-based inorganic material and is applied over at least one surface of the body. Optionally, a fire resistant composition of any inorganic silicate, boric acid, any salts of boric acid, hydrated sodium borate (borax) or mixtures thereof, and preferably sodium silicate, is applied in solution form and maintained within the body by a wetting agent in the solution. The protective coating is being applied by a coating roller followed drying of the polystyrene body.

  • Insulation barrier and a method of making and insulation barrier for a roof insulation system
    Patent number: 5516552
    Abstract: The insulation barrier is formed of a body of expanded polystyrene which is impregnated with sodium silicate. In addition, a coating formed of a metallic-based inorganic material is applied over at least one surface of the body. The sodium silicate is applied in solution form and maintained within the body by a wetting agent in the solution. The coating is be applied by a coating roller either before or after drying of the impregnated polystyrene body.
