Abstract: A roof laminate (10) includes a roof membrane (12, 100, 200, 300) and a protective sheet (14, 114, 214, 314) removably affixed thereto. The surface (20) of the roof membrane (12, 100, 200, 300) can be protected from dirt, scratches and scrapes by a protective sheet (14, 114, 214, 314) which also provides other beneficial attributes that aid an installer. The membrane (12, 100, 200) and the sheet (14, 114, 214) are heat laminated together in the absence of adhesive and tackifiers. Alternatively, the membrane (12, 300) and the sheet (14, 314) are surface treated and then brought into contact with one another in the absence of adhesive and tackifiers. The sheet (14, 114, 214, 314)) may be single layer or include at least a first layer (30) directly secured to a second layer (32). The first layer (30) provides at least one of UV protection, anti-slip, and anti-glare to the roof laminate (10) and so aids the installer in at least one of those respects.

Abstract: During installation of a single-ply roofing membrane, the surface of the membrane can be protected from dirt, scratches and scrapes by a protective sheet which also provides other beneficial attributes that aid an installer. A roof laminate includes a roof membrane and a protective sheet is removably affixed thereto. The sheet includes at least a first layer directly secured to a second layer. The first layer provides at least one of UV protection, anti-slip, and anti-glare to the roof laminate and so aids the installer in at least one of those respects. The second layer is removably affixed to the roof membrane.

Abstract: A roofing laminate includes a roofing membrane, preferably a white roofing membrane, which is covered with a protective sheet. The protective sheet is tinted so that it has a coloration distinguishable from the roofing. The roofing laminate is applied to a roof surface and the release liner protects the outer surface of the membrane from scrapes and dirt during installation. Once the roof is installed the protective sheets are removed from all of the membrane sheets, exposing a clean surface.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a fuel injector assembly is described. The fuel injector assembly includes a terminal assembly that electrically connects a plurality of wire cables to a plurality of control valve solenoids. The control valve solenoids can include, for example, a needle control valve solenoid and/or an intensifier control valve solenoid. The terminal assembly can be physically configured with a radius profile that prevents excessive bending of the wire cables. A connector bridge may allow for the offsetting of a first pair and a second pair of electrical rods that are used to provide electrical current from the terminal assembly to the needle control valve solenoid. Alternatively, the intensifier control valve solenoid may have an aperture, and an armature of an associated poppet valve may have a slot, that are configured to receive the placement of at least a portion of the pair of electrical rods.

Abstract: Improve ASTM E-84 flame spread index and smoke developed index ratings of polyisocyanurate or urethane-modified isocyanurate foams by coating one or both major planar surfaces of a foam body or board with an intumescent coating material that contains expandable graphite and a silicate. If desired, provide reinforcement for the intumescent coating when it intumesces using a material such as a carbon veil mat or a fiberglass mat. Add a moisture vapor barrier layer to minimize water-induced degradation or water absorption of the foam.
