Patent ID: 11865821

Abstract:
A multi-layer membrane with fire-resistant properties having improved thermal stability and shelf-life is provided. The multi-layer membrane 10 has at least a water resistant polymeric layer 12 bonded to a fire resistant component 13. The fire resistant component 13 has a first fire retardant coating 16 bonded to a carrier layer 14. The fire resistant component may further include a second fire retardant coating 28 bonded to a surface of the carrier layer opposite to the first fire retardant coating. The first and second fire retardant coatings comprise a filler 24, 30 mixed with a carrier 26, 32. The membrane may include a back bonding layer 36 bonded to the bottommost layer thereof to adhesively secure to a structural support structure such as a roof. A release liner 42 may be releasably secured to the back bonding layer. Additional layers may be included to provide for further support and/or additional functional properties to the membrane.
