Abstract
A plaster-based board includes a plaster-based core positioned between two sheets of paper or nonwoven fabric, wherein the core contains at least one polymer selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), copolymers of vinyl acetate and an olefin, which copolymers have a glass transition temperature that varies from −10° C. to +25° C., terpolymers of vinyl acetate, an olefin and a vinyl ester monomer, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, a vinyl ester monomer and a (meth)acrylate monomer, and copolymers of vinyl acetate and an acrylic monomer.
Claims21
A plaster-based board, comprising a plaster-based core positioned between two sheets of paper or nonwoven fabric, wherein said core contains at least one polymer selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), copolymers of vinyl acetate and an olefin, which copolymers have a glass transition temperature that varies from −10° C. to +25° C., terpolymers of vinyl acetate, an olefin and a vinyl ester monomer, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, a vinyl ester monomer and a (meth)acrylate monomer, and copolymers of vinyl acetate and an acrylic monomer.
A process for manufacturing a board comprising a core positioned between two sheets of paper or nonwoven fabric, the process comprising mixing powdered calcined gypsum with water in order to form a paste, depositing the paste continuously between said sheets to form a product, pressing the product formed in order to obtain a desired thickness, cutting the board to a desired length, wherein, in order to produce the core of the board, at least one polymer selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), copolymers of vinyl acetate and an olefin, which copolymers have a glass transition temperature that varies from −10° C. to +25° C., terpolymers of vinyl acetate, an olefin and a vinyl ester monomer, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, a vinyl ester monomer and a (meth)acrylate monomer, and copolymers of vinyl acetate and an acrylic monomer is added to the calcined gypsum.
A method comprising utilizing a polymer selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), copolymers of vinyl acetate and an olefin, which copolymers have a glass transition temperature that varies from −10° C. to +25° C., terpolymers of vinyl acetate, an olefin and a vinyl ester monomer, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, a vinyl ester monomer and a (meth)acrylate monomer, and copolymers of vinyl acetate and an acrylic monomer in a composition based on calcined gypsum for the manufacture of a plaster-based board in order to improve the acoustic performance of said board.
A plaster-based composition, comprising calcined gypsum and at least one polymer selected from polyvinyl butyral (PVB), copolymers of vinyl acetate and an olefin, which copolymers have a glass transition temperature that varies from −10° C. to +25° C., terpolymers of vinyl acetate, an olefin and a vinyl ester monomer, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, a vinyl ester monomer and a (meth)acrylate monomer, and copolymers of vinyl acetate and an acrylic monomer.
