Abstract

The embodiments disclose an apparatus including a first layer including a metalized film, a second layer including a heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth, a heat resistance adhesive between the first layer and the second layer and configured to adhere the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth to the metalized film, a third layer including intumescent paper configured to be adhered to a back side of the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth with a polyurethane adhesive and wherein the adhered first, second, and third layers form a multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate configured to be applied to building materials.

Claims (39)

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a first layer including a metalized film;

a second layer including a heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth;

a heat resistance adhesive between the first layer and the second layer and configured to adhere the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth to the metalized film;

a third layer including intumescent paper configured to be adhered to a back side of the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth with a polyurethane adhesive; and

wherein the adhered first, second, and third layers form a multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate configured to be applied to building materials.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of wireless digital sensors embedded into the multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate and configured to detect and measure nearby smoke concentration, temperature and humidity.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the metalized film has a thickness range from 7 microns to 25 microns.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the metalized film has a service temperature resistance up to 550 Celsius.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the laminated multi-layered fire resistant barrier has a thickness range from 0.8 millimeters to 2 millimeters.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth has a weight of 610 grams per square meter and a thickness of 0.75 millimeters.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the intumescent paper has a weight of 350 grams per square meter.

8. An apparatus, comprising:

a first layer including a metalized film;

a second layer including a heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth;

a heat resistance adhesive between the first layer and the second layer and configured to adhere the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth to the metalized film;

a third layer including intumescent paper configured to be adhered to a back side of the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth with a polyurethane adhesive;

wherein the adhered first, second, and third layers form a multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate configured to be applied to building materials; and

wherein the intumescent paper has an expansion rate equal or greater than 35 times by volume.

9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the metalized film is at least one of an aluminum film or an aluminum foil.

10. The apparatus of claim 8 , further comprising a plurality of wireless digital sensors embedded into the multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate and configured to detect and measure nearby smoke concentration, temperature and humidity.

11. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the metalized film has a service temperature resistance up to 550 Celsius.

12. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the laminated multi-layered fire resistant barrier has a thickness range from 0.8 millimeters to 2 millimeters.

13. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth has a weight of 610 grams per square meter and a thickness of 0.75 millimeters.

14. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the intumescent paper has a weight of 350 grams per square meter.

15. An apparatus, comprising:

a first layer including a metalized film;

a second layer including a heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth;

a heat resistance adhesive between the first layer and the second layer and configured to adhere the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth to the metalized film;

a third layer including intumescent paper configured to be adhered to a back side of the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth with a polyurethane adhesive;

wherein the adhered first, second, and third layers form a multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate configured to be applied to building materials;

wherein the intumescent paper has an expansion rate equal or greater than 35 times by volume;

wherein the heat treated luminized fiberglass cloth has a weight of 610 grams per square meter and a thickness of 0.75 millimeters; and

wherein the laminated multi-layered fire resistant barrier has a thickness range from 0.8 millimeters to 2 millimeters.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 , further comprising a plurality of wireless digital sensors embedded into the multi-layered fire resistant barrier laminate and configured to detect and measure nearby smoke concentration, temperature and humidity.

17. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the metalized film is at least one of an aluminum film or an aluminum foil.

18. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the intumescent paper has a thickness of 0.45 millimeters.

19. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the metalized film has a service temperature resistance up to 550 Celsius.
