Publication number: 20240060303Abstract: A sheathing system that envelops a building structure is provided, combining lightweight structural layers and a high R-value insulation layer to provide a unique solution. The collective layers of the sheathing system offer the benefits of decreased thickness, reduced weight, improved thermal insulation, improved structural strength, improved nailability, improved fire and smoke performance, and enhanced energy efficiency. All aspects of the disclosed sheathing system can contribute to the overall improved performance and sustainability of a building structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Hai FU, Shu SITU-LOEWENSTEIN, Xiaomin GUO

Publication number: 20240059052Abstract: A sheathing system that envelops a building structure combines lightweight structural layers and a high R-value insulation layer. The insulation layer includes a coated insulation product formed with a low GWP blowing agent composition that is capable of achieving a 180-day R/in insulation value of at least 5. The coated insulation product includes a foam product that is coated with a barrier coating. The collective layers of the sheathing system offer the benefits of decreased thickness, reduced weight, improved thermal insulation, improved structural strength, improved nailability, improved fire performance, and enhanced energy efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Hai FU, Shu SITU-LOEWENSTEIN, Xiaomin GUO, Chase BOUDREAUX, Jeff THOMAS, Mitchell WEEKLEY, Christine HEPPE, Laura FRAZIER

Publication number: 20240059856Abstract: A sheathing system that envelops a building structure is provided, combining lightweight structural layers and a high R-value insulation layer. The insulation layer includes a coated insulation product with a reduced fluorinated blowing agent concentration, while maintaining acceptable thermal properties. The coated insulation product includes a foam product that is coated with a barrier coating. The barrier coating includes a polymer having a minimum degree of crystallinity and at least one additive. The collective layers of the sheathing system offer the benefits of decreased thickness, reduced weight, improved thermal insulation, improved structural strength, improved nailability, improved fire performance, and enhanced energy efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Hai FU, Shu SITU-LOEWENSTEIN, Xiaomin GUO, Chase BOUDREAUX, Jeff THOMAS, Mitchell WEEKLEY, Christine HEPPE, Laura FRAZIER, Ty ROGERS, Saul SALGADO
