Benefits of technology

[0011]In operation of the system, the three components may be applied in series to a roof to create a seamless, watertight membrane on the roof surface. The roof sealing system may be applied on an existing membrane roof or directly on to the roof decking. The method of applying the system may comprise the steps of applying the roof caulk to fill larger gaps in the roof substrate and sealing any penetrations around pipes, vents, edges, joints, seams, and cracks, then applying the mastic over the caulk to create a sealed barrier wherein the mastic smooths the surface in preparation for application of the coating, applying the roof coating to the entirety of the roof, in two or more applications with a roller, brush, or spray, to completely seal the surface of the roof. In this embodiment, watertight barrier, which is cured by ambient moisture, is formed and requires no maintenance after initial installation. By employing fibers in the resin no fabric reinforcing layer is needed. The lower viscosity of the roof sealing system allows for complete adheren

This results in seams where the rubber sheeting is bonded together, creating weak points where water leakage can occur.
Similar to synthetic rubber, this process creates seams which are prone to water leakage.
This creates seams which are prone to leakage, and heating the asphalt releases chemicals.

Abstract

A roof sealing system method of manufacture and method of application comprising three parts: a caulk gap filler, a mastic, and a top coating. All three components combine to create a singular sealed membrane when applied to a roof surface. The roof sealing system utilizes inert polyethylene fibers in a liquid silicone polymer.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention generally pertains to the field of sealants, and more particularly roofing sealants and waterproofing. More specifically, this invention relates to a fiber-infused caulk, mastic, and coating, as well as a system and method for manufacture and application. While the caulk layer, mastic layer, and coating layer work as a system in this embodiment, one of ordinary skill in the art would understand they can be used individually as well.[0002]Membrane roofing systems typically involve applying large pieces of a synthetic rubber, thermoplastic or modified bitumen material onto an underlying roofing structure, such as plywood, and bonding or heat sealing seams together to form a continuous and coherent membrane structure that prevents water from penetrating the membrane and underlying structures. Membrane roofing differs from asphalt and gravel roofing or shingle roofing in that it creates a single bonded membrane structure.[0003]Synthetic ru...
