Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a water vapour permeable laminate, especially for use as an underroofing or underslating for roofs.
  • a heat insulated roof structure normally comprises an outer roof covering, such as tiles, an underslating or underroofing in the form of a substantially water impermeable plastic film or laminate, a layer of heat insulation, and an inner vapour barrier in the form of a plastic film or laminate.
  • the purpose of the underslating is to prevent rainwater and drift snow having passed through the roof cover from penetrating into the heat insulation.
  • small amounts of moisture are diffusing through the vapour barrier from the room under the roof structure and into the insulation layer.
  • this is done by forming a ventilating space between the underslating and the insulation, which ventilating space communicates with the ambient atmosphere. It is also known to dispense with that ventilating space.
  • the underslating should fulfil two apparently contradicting conditions, namely be substantially impermeable to moisture from the outside towards the inside, but permeable to moisture from the inside towards the outside.
  • WO00/37751 discloses a water vapour barrier having a water absorbing material defined between first and second water impervious membranes.
  • the basic idea is to provide a water vapour barrier having the additional ability of removing moisture in a construction part, e.g. a roof structure, before it accumulates to a problematic level.
  • the water vapour barrier of WO00/37751 is therefore not suitable for use as understating or underroofing because it allows some extent of vapour penetration through both of its membranes.
  • the present invention provides an improved water vapour permeable laminate, which is suited for use as an underroofing or understating for roofs in a non-ventilated roof structure.
  • the present invention provides a water vapour permeable laminate comprising an outer layer formed by a first film or foil of a material having a water vapour diffusion resistance independent of relative humidity of air in contact therewith the first film being perforated, and an inner layer having at least some areas formed by a non-perforated second film of the type having a water vapour diffusion resistance, which varies in dependency of the relative humidity of air in contact therewith, such that the water vapour diffusion resistance is reduced, when the relative humidity increases, and vice versa, characterized in that the first and second films are directly interconnected at their adjoining surfaces without an intermediate layer, and that the water vapour diffusion resistance of the outer layer exceeds the maximum water vapour diffusion resistance of the second film.
  • the total inner layer or film is made from the same plastic material. It should be understood, however, that the inner layer could be made from mutually spaced areas of such material having a diffusion resistance, which is dependent on the relative humidity of the contacting air, and the said spaced areas could be interconnected by connecting areas of film or foil being substantially impervious to water vapour or having a diffusion resistance being less dependent on the relative humidity of the contacting air.
  • Such laminate prevents water stemming from for example driving rain or drift snow from penetrating there through and into the insulation layer and the roof structure.
  • the laminate according to the invention functions like a one-way valve allowing moisture to pass from the inner room under the roof covering and outwards into the outer atmosphere, only.
  • the diffusion resistance of the outer layer in a non-perforated condition must be relatively high even when the relative humidity (RH) on the outer side thereof is high.
  • RH relative humidity
  • the diffusion resistance of the outer layer exceeds 20 m and preferably 90 m air column.
  • the diffusion resistance of the inner layer is less than 18 m, 15m, 10m, 5m or 1m air column at a relative humidity (RH) of at least 80% at an exposed inner surface of the inner layer. More preferred the diffusion resistance of the inner layer is much less, namely between 0.02 and 0.6 m air column at a relative humidity of at least 80% at the exposed inner surface of the inner layer.
  • the outer layer or the first film is perforated in order to allow water vapour to pass outwardly from the inner space of the building into the outer atmosphere.
  • the laminate according to the invention should be substantially impermeable to water. Therefore, the perforations of the first film or foil of the outer layer are preferably substantially impermeable to liquid water, but permeable to water vapour.
  • the perforations of the first film or foil may be substantially uniformly distributed over the area of the outer layer.
  • the perforations may be concentrated in certain mutually spaced areas, which may, for example be band shaped, circular, rectangular, etc.
  • the perforations may be made in any suitable manner, such as by punching, corona discharge, flame perforation or rendered breathable by an overload of fillers or defined between overlapping edge portions of for example band shaped parts.
  • Each of the perforations in the first film or foil may have a substantially uniform cross-sectional shape along its length transversely to the film or foil.
  • the cross-sectional area of at least some of the perforations of the first film or foil may increase from the outer surface of the film or foil towards the inner surface thereof. This means that each of said at least some perforations are funnel-shaped from the inner surface of the film or foil towards the outer surface thereof.
  • the minimum dimension or diameter of each of at least the majority of the perforations of the first film or foil of the outer layer is preferably smaller than 1.5 mm, preferably at the outer surface of the outer layer and the said minimum dimension or diameter of each of said majority of the perforations are preferably between 0.001 and 0.5 mm.
  • the resistance to diffusion of water vapour from the exposed surface of the inner layer to the outer surface of the outer layer should preferably be equal to or less than 0.6 m air column at a relative humidity of at least 80% at said exposed surface of the inner layer.
  • the second film of the inner layer may be made from any material having a varying diffusion resistance against water vapour as described above.
  • such material may be selected from the group consisting of polyamide, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, protein derivatives, methylcellulose, cellophane, linseed oil alkyd, and bone glue.
  • the first film or foil of the outer layer may be made from any film or foil which in its imperforated condition is substantially impervious to water vapour.
  • the first film or foil may be made from one or more of the materials selected from the group consisting of aluminium and other metals, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, metallised polyethylene terephthalate, and polyvinylidene chloride.
  • the first and second films may be directly interconnected at their adjoining surfaces.
  • the present invention further comprises a roof structure comprising an outer roofing and an inner roofing or underroofing impervious to water, and the roof structure according to the invention is characterised in that the inner roofing comprises any of the above described embodiments of the laminate according to the invention, the outer layer of said laminate being positioned adjacent to the inner surface of the outer roofing.
  • Fig. 1 is a sectional view of a roof structure according to the invention.
  • This roof structure of a building (not shown) includes a wooden structure comprising a plurality of upper and lower battens 10 and 11, respectively, extending between the roof ridge and the eaves, and counter battens 12 extending transversely to the battens 10 and 11.
  • a roof covering 13 made up by tiles or other roofing plates is fastened to the upper battens 10.
  • the roof structure further comprises an insulating layer 14, which is arranged between the upper battens 10 and the lower battens 11, and which may, for example, be made from stone wool or fibre glass.
  • a ceiling lining 15 may be fastened to the bottom surfaces of the lower battens.
  • an underroofing or underslating in the form of a laminate 16 in accordance with the invention and shown in further detail in Fig. 2 is arranged between the bottom surfaces of the upper battens 10 and the upper surface of the insulating layer 14.
  • a further laminate or vapour barrier 17, which may be of the type disclosed in applicant's international patent application WO 00/37751 or WO 96/33321 may be arranged between the lower surface of the insulating layer 14 and the upper surfaces of the lower battens 11. The purpose of this laminate 17 is described in more detail in the above international patent application.
  • Fig 2 is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of the laminate 16 according to the invention.
  • This laminate 16 comprises an upper or outer layer 18, which may be in the form of a plastic film or a metal foil and a lower or an inner layer or plastic film 19.
  • the upper layer 18 is made from a material, which is not only impermeable to liquid water, but also substantially impermeable to water vapour. However, in order to allow water vapour to pass through the upper layer 18 it is provided with a great plurality of small through openings or perforations 21. The diameter of each of these perforations 21 is so small that liquid water cannot pass through the perforations from the outer surface of the upper layer. The perforations may be distributed uniformly over the total area of the upper layer or be arranged in mutually spaced groups as shown in Fig. 2 .
  • the lower or inner layer 19 is a non-perforated plastic film of the type having a water vapour diffusion resistance, which is reduced when the relative humidity of the air in contact therewith increases, and vice versa.
  • the water vapour diffusion resistance of the inner layer 19 is between 0.02 and 0.6 m air column at a relative humidity of at least 80% at the inner surface thereof.
  • the underroofing 16 in accordance with the present invention prevents liquid water from passing there through, and the water vapour diffusion resistance of the of the material from which the film or foil is made is high. Therefore, no or negligible amounts only of water vapour will pass inwardly through the outer layer 18. If, however, for some reason the humidity of the insulating layer and of the air around the wooden roof structure remains high for a longer period of time, detrimental micro-organisms may attack the wooden roof structure. Therefore, it is important that the humidity of the air in the space defined between the upper laminate 16 and the lower laminate 17 in figure 1 is kept below a certain upper limit.
  • the laminate or underroofing 16 may be obtained by the laminate or underroofing 16 according to the invention.
  • the humidity of the air enclosed in the space between the laminates 16 and 17 increases the water vapour diffusion resistance of the lower or inner layer 19 of the laminate 16 decreases so that water vapour may pass out into the ambient atmosphere via the perforations 21 in the outer layer 18.
  • the resistance to diffusion of water vapour from the exposed surface of the inner layer 19 to the outer surface of the outer layer 18 of the laminate 16 is equal to or less than 0.6 m air column at a relative humidity of at least 80% at inner surface of the inner layer 19.
