Abstract
Abstract A wood veneer laminate form of heating panel incorporates an internal layer of a semiconductive carbonaceous pyropolymer, consisting of carbon and hydrogen on a high surface area refractory inorganic oxide support, to provide electrical resistance radiant heating. The carbonaceous pyropolymer in powder form can be incorporated with the glue line between veneer or core stock layers or mixed with a resin to be impregnated into a glass-cloth, or other support material, to form a conductive prepreg sheet which can be placed between wood veneer layers.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
161 words
A multiple layer wood veneer containing laminate form of heating panel comprising at least two layers of wood veneer sheeting, a plurality of wood core layers, a thermosetting adhesive forming a glue line between the plurality of layers of said panel, a filler composition of semiconductive carbonaceous pyropolymer particles less than 100 microns in size, said particles having been formed by heating an organic pyrolyzable substance in a primarily nonoxidizing atmosphere in contact with a refractory inorganic oxide material at a temperature above about 400°C. such that the resulting semiconductive composition will have a conductivity of from about 10.sup. -8 to about 10 2 inverse ohm-centimeters, said filler particles being present in particulate form in admixture with the adhesive forming a glue line between two of said core layers and in an amount of from about 10% to about 80% by weight of said adhesive, and electric current supply means to spaced apart portions of said glue line containing said particles.
