Facing for plastic foamed construction insulation board
First Claim
1. A plastic foamed construction insulation board facing that is flexible, thin, and light weight and capable of use in manufacturing such board in which the plastic foam is formed on the facing during manufacture of the board consisting essentially of,(a) paper, said paper having a basis weight of from about 10 pounds to about 20 pounds and having been treated with a treatment comprising materials whose dry weight is about 10% to 100% of the weight of the paper and which treatment coats fibers in said paper with a composition which provides means for reducing the liquid permeability of fibers of said paper, filling interstices in said paper, and imparting to the paper fire retardancy, water repellancy, reduced porosity, and reduced ability to transmit liquids through said paper,(b) and a reinforcing scrim adhesively bonded to said paper.

Abstract
Facings for plastic foamed construction insulation board are made from paper treated with a treatment comprising about 10% to 100% of the weight of the paper including polymer, water repellant, and fire retardant. A reinforcing scrim may be combined with the paper. The treatment is applied to paper, the scrim is combined with the paper, and foam-forming liquids are applied to the paper to form a facing for a plastic foamed construction insulation board.
