Abstract

A plaster-based board includes a core made of plaster positioned between two coating layers, in which a textile including glass fibers and an organic binder constitutes at least one of the coating layers and/or the textile is embedded in the plaster constituting the core. In the textile, the binder includes one or more organic polymers having a glass transition temperature which varies from −10 to +25° C., measured by differential scanning calorimetry according to the standard ISO 11357-1:2009.

Claims (24)

1. A plaster-based board comprising a core made of plaster positioned between two coating layers, and a textile including glass fibers and an organic binder comprising at least one organic polymer exhibiting a glass transition temperature which varies from −10 to +25° C., said textile constituting one of the coating layers or the two coating layers and/or being embedded in the core made of plaster, wherein the textile includes at least 80% by weight of glass fibers.

2. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile is a nonwoven or a fabric.

3. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the glass fibers are individual glass filaments having a diameter which varies from 5 to 30 μm, or strands comprising a plurality of the glass filaments or an assemblage of several base strands.

4. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile includes up to 20% by weight of fibers different in chemical nature from the glass fibers.

5. The board as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the fibers different in chemical nature from the glass fibers are organic natural or synthetic fibers.

6. The board as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the fibers different in chemical nature from the glass fibers are polymer fibers, mineral fibers, carbon fibers or metal fibers.

7. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer is chosen from copolymers of an olefin and of vinyl acetate, copolymers of vinyl acetate and of (meth)acrylic acid or of (meth)acrylate, copolymers of (meth)acrylate and of a monomer other than vinyl acetate, homopolymers of (meth)acrylic acid or of acrylate, terpolymers of vinyl acetate, of an olefin and of a vinyl ester monomer, acrylonitrile polymers, and terpolymers of acrylonitrile, of butadiene and of styrene.

8. The board as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the organic polymer is a copolymer of butyl acrylate and of styrene.

9. The board as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the olefin is ethylene, propylene, butylene or isobutylene, wherein the monomer other than vinyl acetate is styrene, and wherein the acrylonitrile polymers are copolymers of acrylonitrile and of (meth)acrylate.

10. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the organic polymer has a glass transition temperature (Tg) which varies from 0 to +10° C.

11. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile contains from 10 to 50% by weight of organic binder, calculated on the basis of solid matter.

12. The board as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the textile contains from 15 to 25% by weight of organic binder, calculated on the basis of the solid matter.

13. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile exhibits a weight per unit area which varies from 10 to 800 g/m 2 .

14. The board as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the textile exhibits a weight per unit area which varies from 30 to 500 g/m 2 .

15. The board as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the textile exhibits a weight per unit area which varies from 35 to 120 g/m 2 .

16. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the board has a thickness which varies from 6 to 25 millimeters.

17. The board as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the board has a thickness of the order of 12.5 millimeters.

18. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile includes at least 90% by weight of glass fibers.

19. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said textile is made of a mat including said glass fibers and said organic binder, said organic binder penetrating through a thickness of said mat to form said textile.

20. The board as claimed in claim 19 , wherein said textile consists of said mat of said glass fibers and said organic binder.

21. The board as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said organic binder is the only binder that is used to form said textile.

22. A method comprising improving the acoustic insulation in a building with a plaster-based board as claimed in claim 1 .

23. A plaster-based board comprising a core made of plaster positioned between two coating layers, and a textile including glass fibers and an organic binder comprising at least one organic polymer exhibiting a glass transition temperature which varies from −10 to +25° C., said textile constituting one of the coating layers or the two coating layers and/or being embedded in the core made of plaster, wherein the organic polymer is an acrylonitrile polymer that is a copolymer of acrylonitrile and of methyl methacrylate.

24. A method comprising improving the acoustic properties of a plaster-based board comprising a core made of plaster positioned between two coating layers with a textile, including glass fibers and an organic binder comprising at least one organic polymer exhibiting a glass transition temperature which varies from −10 to +25° C., in which said textile constitutes one of the coating layers or the two coating layers and/or is embedded in the core made of plaster, wherein the textile includes at least 80% by weight of glass fibers.
