Abstract:
Described herein are cementitious articles having an integrally formed exterior surface with ultra-smooth finish and reduced porosity and/or thickness relative to the core of the cementitious article. Described herein are also techniques and methods for producing fiber cement articles having a thin exterior shell characterized by improved smoothness and reduced porosity.

Claim (Index 1):
A fiber cement article, comprising:\n a fiber cement substrate comprising two opposing lateral faces and at least one side surface extending therebetween; an integrally formed fiber cement shell disposed on at least one of the lateral faces of the fiber cement substrate, said integrally formed fiber cement shell covering a substantial portion of the at least one lateral face; and wherein the integrally formed fiber cement shell has a lower porosity value than that of the fiber cement substrate and a lower surface roughness value than that of the side surface of the fiber cement substrate, thereby providing a protective and smooth integrally formed exterior surface for the fiber cement article.
