Shingle sealing arrangements
An exemplary shingle includes at least one coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces. A first line of adhesive is adhered to one of the upper surface of the headlap portion and the lower surface of the tab portion, and includes a first thermally activated adhesive material. A second line of adhesive is adhered to one of the upper surface of the headlap portion and the lower surface of the tab portion, and includes a second thermally activated adhesive material having a minimum activation temperature less than a minimum activation temperature of the first thermally activated adhesive material.
1. A shingle comprising:
a coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces;
a channel on the upper surface of the headlap portion;
a first reactive sealant component; and
a second reactive sealant component;
wherein the first reactive sealant component comprises a first part of a two-part adhesive and is disposed on the lower surface of the tab portion;
wherein the second reactive sealant component comprises a second part of the two-part adhesive and is disposed in the channel;
wherein the first reactive sealant component and the second reactive sealant component are not adhesive until the first part of the two-part adhesive comes into contact with the second part of the two-part adhesive; and
wherein contact between the first part of the two-part adhesive and the second part of the two-part adhesive is configured to create an adhesive that is at least partially disposed within the channel such that the adhesive contacts the coated shingle sheet of the shingle and a coated shingle sheet of another shingle for sealing the shingle to the another shingle.
2. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the coated shingle sheet comprises an asphalt coated overlay sheet laminated to an asphalt coated underlay sheet.
3. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the channel comprises a reinforcement material that is formed of at least one of paper, polymer film, scrim, woven glass, and non-woven glass.
4. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the two-part adhesive is a two-part epoxy adhesive, a two-part polysulfide adhesive, a two-part polyurethane adhesive, or a two-part silicone adhesive.
5. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is formed as a continuous bead and the second reactive sealant is formed as a continuous bead.
6. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is formed as a discontinuous bead and the second reactive sealant is formed as a discontinuous bead.
7. The shingle of claim 1 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is encapsulated within a first shell and the second reactive sealant component is encapsulated within a second shell.
8. The shingle of claim 7 , wherein the first shell comprises polyethylene, polypropylene, ethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, gelatin, or sodium alginate, and wherein the second shell comprises polyethylene, polypropylene, ethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, gelatin, or sodium alginate.
9. The shingle of claim 8 , wherein the first shell and the second shell are formed of the same material.
10. The shingle of claim 8 , wherein the first shell and the second shell are formed of different materials.
11. A shingle system comprising:
an overlying shingle comprising a first coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces;
an underlying shingle comprising a second coated shingle sheet defining a headlap portion and a tab portion each having opposed upper and lower surfaces;
a channel on the upper surface of the headlap portion of the underlying shingle;
a first reactive sealant component; and
a second reactive sealant component;
wherein the first reactive sealant component comprises a first part of a two-part adhesive and is disposed on the lower surface of the tab portion of the overlying shingle;
wherein the second reactive sealant component comprises a second part of the two-part adhesive and is disposed in the channel;
wherein in an installed position, the first reactive sealant component of the overlying shingle contacts and reacts with the second reactive sealant component in the channel of the underlying shingle to create an adhesive that contacts the first coated shingle sheet of the overlying shingle and the second coated shingle sheet of the underlying shingle to seal the overlying shingle to the underlying shingle; and
wherein the adhesive is at least partially disposed within the channel.
12. The shingle system of claim 11 , wherein the channel comprises a reinforcement material that is formed of at least one of paper, polymer film, scrim, woven glass, and non-woven glass.
13. The shingle system of claim 11 , wherein the two-part adhesive is a two-part epoxy adhesive, a two-part polysulfide adhesive, a two-part polyurethane adhesive, or a two-part silicone adhesive.
14. The shingle system of claim 11 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is formed as a continuous bead and the second reactive sealant is formed as a continuous bead.
15. The shingle system of claim 11 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is formed as a discontinuous bead and the second reactive sealant is formed as a discontinuous bead.
16. The shingle system of claim 11 , wherein the first reactive sealant component is encapsulated within a first shell and the second reactive sealant component is encapsulated within a second shell.
17. The shingle system of claim 16 , wherein the first shell comprises polyethylene, polypropylene, ethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, gelatin, or sodium alginate, and wherein the second shell comprises polyethylene, polypropylene, ethyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, gelatin, or sodium alginate.
18. The shingle system of claim 17 , wherein the first shell and the second shell are formed of the same material.
19. The shingle system of claim 17 , wherein the first shell and the second shell are formed of different materials.
