  • Patent number: 6612340
    Abstract: Fusion of facing portions of the turnback portion of an installed everted resin impregnated cured in place liner installed in an existing conduit is avoided by adhering a high temperature turnback release film to a portion of the trailing end of the everting liner. After cure and removal of the downstream end of the liner, the high temperature release film is peeled away from the cured liner. This avoids the need to remove the fused portion of the turnback by cutting or excavation of a section of the liner. Fusion generally occurs due to the exotherm from the crosslinking of the thermosetting resin impregnated into the flexible lining.
