Abstract
Abstract What is disclosed is a method of fabricating wood composite panels having enhanced fire retardancy. The panels so fabricated have hard, durable finished surfaces which allow machine finishing without the concurrent loss in fire retardancy due to the finishing operation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
171 words
A method of enhancing the fire retardancy of fabricated wood panel systems which method consists of (A) impregnating a first or outer wood member with an aqueous based fire retardant consisting of a mixture of polyethyleneimine and a mixture of monoammonium phosphate and diammonium phosphate; (B) impregnating the product of (A) with a material selected from the group consisting of (i) curable tertiary butylstyrene and (ii) mixtures of curable tertiary butylstyrene, a haloalkyl phosphate flame retardant different than the flame retardant in (A), a crosslinking agent for the tertiary butyl styrene and a catalyst for curing; and then curing said tertiary butylstyrene; (C) impregnating a second or core wood member with a fire retardant as in (A) and drying; (D) forming a composite structure from the product of (A) and (B) and the product of (C) by gluing the wood members together and, (E) attaching a third or balance wood member to the remaining core face opposite the first wood member, whereby a fire retardant composite fabricated wood panel is obtained.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
171 words
A method of enhancing the fire retardancy of fabricated wood panel systems which method consists of (A) impregnating a first or outer wood member with an aqueous based fire retardant consisting of a mixture of polyethyleneimine and a mixture of monoammonium phosphate and diammonium phosphate; (B) impregnating the product of (A) with a material selected from the group consisting of (i) curable tertiary butylstyrene and (ii) mixtures of curable tertiary butylstyrene, a haloalkyl phosphate flame retardant different than the flame retardant in (A), a crosslinking agent for the tertiary butyl styrene and a catalyst for curing; and then curing said tertiary butylstyrene; (C) impregnating a second or core wood member with a fire retardant as in (A) and drying; (D) forming a composite structure from the product of (A) and (B) and the product of (C) by gluing the wood members together and, (E) attaching a third or balance wood member to the remaining core face opposite the first wood member, whereby a fire retardant composite fabricated wood panel is obtained.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
72 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the flame retardant in (A) and (C) is an aqueous mixture of 12 parts by weight of polyethyleneimine and 88 parts by weight of a 40/60 weight percent mixture of monoammonium phosphate and diammonium phosphate wherein the amount of the polyethyleneimine and phosphates is based on the total amount of polyethyleneimine and phosphates present and, the flame retardant in (B)(ii) is tris-(beta chloroethyl) phosphate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
11 words
A composite fabricated wood panel prepared in accordance with claim 1.
