Abstract

A sound-absorbing and fire-insulating wall covering includes, a cured mixture of: (i) 5-20% by weight mineralized wood fibre; (ii) 20-60%/by weight sand with an SiO 2 content of less than 5% by weight and a greywacke content of at least 30 % by weight; and (iii) 20-50% by weight cement. A method of preparing a fire-insulating wall covering includes a step of mixing, relative to the cured weight, 5-20% by weight mineralized wood fibre, 30-60% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content smaller than 5% by weight and a greywacke content of at least 30% by weight, and 20-50% by weight cement. Then 10-30% by weight water is added. Thereafter the mixture is cured to form the fire-insulating wall covering.

Claims (39)

1. A fire-insulating wall covering, comprising a cured mixture of:

i) about 5 to about 20% by weight mineralized wood fibre;

ii) about 20 to about 60% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content of less than about 5% by weight and a greywacke content of at least about 30% by weight; and

iii) about 20 to about 50% by weight cement.

2. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing about 7 to about 15% by weight mineralized wood fibre.

3. A wall covering as claimed in claim 2 , containing 10-15% by weight mineralized wood fibre.

4. A wall covering as claimed in claim 2 , containing about 35 to about 50% by weight sand.

5. A wall covering as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the sand has an SiO 2 content less than about 2.5% by weight.

6. A wall covering as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the sand has an SiO 2 content less than 2% by weight.

7. A wall covering as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the sand contains at least about 40% by weight greywacke.

8. A wall covering as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the sand contains at least 50% by weight greywacke.

9. A wall covering as claimed in claim 7 , containing about 25 to about 40% by weight cement.

10. A wall covering as claimed in claim 9 , containing:

i) about 10 to about 15% by weight mineralized wood fibre;

ii) about 35 to about 50% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content less than about 2% by weight and a greywacke content greater than about 50% by weight; and

iii) about 25 to about 40% by weight cement.

11. A wall covering as claimed in claim 10 , containing about 0.1 to about 1% by weight impregnating agent.

12. A wall covering as claimed in claim 11 , containing 0.1-0.5% by weight impregnating agent.

13. A wall covering as claimed in claim 10 , containing about 30 to about 500 grams per m 2 impregnating agent.

14. A wall covering as claimed in claim 13 , containing 100-250 grams per m 2 impregnating agent.

15. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing about 35 to about 50% by weight sand.

16. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sand has an SiO 2 content less than about 2.5% by weight.

17. A wall covering as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the sand has an SiO 2 content less than 2% by weight.

18. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sand contains at least about 40% by weight greywacke.

19. A wall covering as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the sand contains at least 50% by weight greywacke.

20. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing about 25 to about 40% by weight cement.

21. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing:

i) about 10 to about 15% by weight mineralized wood fibre;

ii) about 35 to about 50% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content less than about 2% by weight and a greywacke content greater than about 50% by weight; and

iii) about 25 to about 40% by weight cement.

22. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing about 0.1 to about 1% by weight impregnating agent.

23. A wall covering as claimed in claim 22 , containing 0.1-0.5% by weight impregnating agent.

24. A wall covering as claimed in claim 1 , containing about 30 to about 500 grams per m 2 impregnating agent.

25. A wall covering as claimed in claim 24 , containing 100-250 grams per m 2 impregnating agent.

26. A method of preparing a fire-insulating wall covering comprising a cured mixture of:

i) about 5 to about 20% by weight mineralized wood fibre;

ii) about 20 to about 60% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content of less than about 5% by weight and a greywacke content of at least about 30% by weight; and

iii) about 20 to about 50% by weight cement;

wherein relative to a cured weight of the mixture are mixed about 5 to about 20% by weight mineralized wood fibre, about 20 to about 60% by weight sand with an SiO 2 content less than about 5% by weight and a greywacke content of at least about 30% by weight, and about 20 to about 50% by weight cement, and about 10 to about 30% by weight water is then added, where after the mixture is cured to form the fire-insulating wall covering.
