2. Roof coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_coating

   This means a roof coating actually becomes the top layer of a composite roof membrane and underlying system. As such, the roof coating is the topmost layer of protection for the membrane, receiving the impact of sunlight (both infrared and ultraviolet (UV)), rain, hail and physical damage. Roof Coatings should not be confused with deck coatings.

3. Membrane roofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_roofing

   Membrane roofing is a type of roofing system for buildings, RVs, ponds, and, in some cases, tanks. It is used to create a watertight covering to protect the interior of a building. Membrane roofs are most commonly made from synthetic rubber, thermoplastic (PVC or similar material), or modified bitumen. Membrane roofs are most commonly used in ...

   Membrane roofing consists of large sheets, generally fused in some way at the joints to form a continuous surface. Cured Thermoset membrane (e.g. EPDM rubber, Neoprene). Synthetic rubber Cured Thermosets are synthetic rubbers that have undergone the vulcanization or "Curing" process. Seams of materials are bonded by adhesives or chemicals ...

5. Butyl rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butyl_rubber

   Butyl rubber sealant is used for damp proofing, rubber roof repair and for maintenance of roof membranes (especially around the edges). It is important [ citation needed ] to have the roof membrane fixed, as a lot of fixtures (e.g., air conditioner vents, plumbing, and other pipes) can considerably loosen it.

6. Flat roof - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_roof

   A TPO roof membrane consists of three layers: a TPO polymer base, a polyester reinforcement scrim middle layer, and a TPO polymer top ply, which are heat-fused at the factory. TPO roof membranes typically come in three standard thicknesses: 45-mil, 60-mil, and 80-mil. Standard TPO membrane colors are white, grey, and tan, with custom colors ...

   LBNL found that, compared to the original black rubber roofing membrane on the Texas retail building studied, a retrofitted vinyl membrane delivered an average decrease of 24 °C (43 °F) in surface temperature, an 11% decrease in aggregate air conditioning energy consumption, and a corresponding 14% drop in peak hour demand.
