Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication de membranes multicouches comprenant un revêtement et un composant ignifuge. Le revêtement comprend une couche polymère résistante à l'eau, et facultativement une couche anti-glissement sacrificielle et un tissu de support. Le composant ignifuge comporte un premier revêtement ignifuge comprenant une première charge mélangée à un premier support, et une couche de support liée au premier revêtement ignifuge. Le procédé selon l'invention consiste à soumettre la membrane multicouche à une étape de liaison thermique de sorte à renforcer la stratification entre le revêtement et le composant ignifuge. Certains modes de réalisation du procédé selon l'invention consistent également à appliquer une pression sur la membrane pendant l'étape de liaison thermique.
