Abstract

A panel comprises a polymeric composite layer and at least a reinforcement layer for reinforcing the polymeric composite layer at least in the plane of the panel. The reinforcement layer is made of a material which is different from that of the polymeric composite layer.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A panel, comprising a polymeric composite layer and at least a reinforcement layer for reinforcing the polymeric composite layer at least in the plane of the panel, the reinforcement layer being made of a material which is different from that of the polymeric composite layer. 
     
     
         2 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the polymeric composite layer is a WPC layer made of wood plastic composite (WPC) and the reinforcement layer is a non-WPC reinforcement layer. 
     
     
         3 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer is incorporated within the polymeric composite layer. 
     
     
         4 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer has an open structure. 
     
     
         5 . The panel according to  claim 4 , wherein the polymeric composite layer is continuous through open areas of the open structure. 
     
     
         6 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer comprises a fiber web. 
     
     
         7 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer comprises longitudinal filaments and transversal filaments extending in transverse direction with respect to the longitudinal filaments. 
     
     
         8 . The panel according to  claim 7 , wherein the mutual distance of at least one of the longitudinal filaments and transversal filaments vary within the reinforcement layer. 
     
     
         9 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the thickness of portions of the WPC layer at both sides of the reinforcement layer is substantially equal. 
     
     
         10 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer is a sheet or plate. 
     
     
         11 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer is a self-supporting layer. 
     
     
         12 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer is made of one piece. 
     
     
         13 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the panel comprises at least another reinforcement layer. 
     
     
         14 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement layer is thinner than the polymeric composite layer. 
     
     
         15 . The panel according to  claim 1 , wherein the polymeric composite layer contains at least  30 % polymer.
