Benefits of technology

[0006] The present invention solves these problems and others by providing a process for producing a building material component that has the appearance of a wood material component. This allows the building material component to be used in applications that traditionally have used wooden components, such as pickets for picket and rail fences, decking and other uses.
[0007] The building material component of a preferred embodiment of the present invention is formed from a material that can be extruded into a desired shape, such as a picket, plank or other structural or decorative component. The material has the characteristics of being color and UV stable regardless of the exposure to the environment. In a preferred embodiment, polyethylene is used to provide these characteristics as well as exceptional cold weather impact strength.

Problems solved by technology

Abstract

A plastic extruded building material component such as picket fence or skirting component. The building material component is profile extruded to have texturing and color streaking to simulate a wood building material. A unique mechanism for dispersing and melting the streaking and texturing agents is provided for extruding the product.

Description

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0001] Traditionally, wood has been used as the primary structural and decorative component for fencing, decking and other applications. While wood has proven to be an acceptable material for these purposes, it does have drawbacks. Chief among these drawbacks includes the susceptibility to environmental degradation, such as weathering, ultra violet degradation, moisture and other damage. Also, wood is susceptible to rot, insects, fire and other types of damage. Frequent treatment, such as painting, staining, and other care is necessary to minimize the damage to wood products, particularly those used in outdoor applications. [0002] Plastic components are now becoming more accepted as a substitute for wood components in these applications. These plastic components typically are formed from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or acylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymers. These types of plastic do not have sufficient rigidity, so they are often formed with an aluminum o...
