Abstract

Abstract The disclosure relates to difficultly flammable wooden articles, especially chip boards comprising solid and pipe boards, prepared by extrusion from wooden chips and/or woody fibrous materials. The articles contain as a flame-retarding addend a product of (a) 50 to 99.5 weight % of a flame-retarding agent physically and chemically stable under extrusion conditions, preferably 75 to 99.5 weight % of a pulverulent, free-flowing ammonium polyphosphate of the general formula H.sub.(n-m)+2 (NH.sub.4).sub.m P.sub.n O.sub.3n+1 in which n stands for a whole number with an average value of about 20 to 800 and the ratio of m/n is about 1, and (b) about 0.5 to 50 weight % of a cured water-insoluble artificial resin encapsulating the individual particles of the flame-retarding agent or ammonium polyphosphate. The disclosure also relates to difficultly flammable boards veneered with wood or a laminate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 186 words
Difficulty flammable wooden articles, especially chip boards, comprising solid and pipe boards, prepared by extrusion from wooden chips and/or woody fibrous materials, containing as a flame-retarding agent a product of (a) 50 to 99.5 weight % of a pulverulent, free-flowing ammonium polyphosphate of the general formula H.sub.(n-m)+2 (NH.sub.4).sub.m P.sub.n O.sub.3n+1 in which n stands for a whole number with an average value of about 20 to 800 and the ratio of m/n is about 1, consisting of particles with a mean size of about 0.03 to 0.08 mm, and (b) 0.5 to 50 weight % of a cured, water-insoluble synthetic resin selected from the group consisting of (1) a polycondensation product of a polyol and an isocyanate, (2) a polycondensation product of a polyol and a polyisocyanate, (3) a polycondensation product of an isocyanate and/or a polyisocyanate, (4) a polycondensation product of an aromatic hydroxy compound and formaldehyde, (5) a polyisocyanate, (6) an epoxide resin, encapsulating the particles of said ammonium polyphosphate, the wooden articles containing the flame-retarding agent in a concentration of about 5 to 50%, based on the dry wooden chips and/or fibrous materials.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 186 words
Difficulty flammable wooden articles, especially chip boards, comprising solid and pipe boards, prepared by extrusion from wooden chips and/or woody fibrous materials, containing as a flame-retarding agent a product of (a) 50 to 99.5 weight % of a pulverulent, free-flowing ammonium polyphosphate of the general formula H.sub.(n-m)+2 (NH.sub.4).sub.m P.sub.n O.sub.3n+1 in which n stands for a whole number with an average value of about 20 to 800 and the ratio of m/n is about 1, consisting of particles with a mean size of about 0.03 to 0.08 mm, and (b) 0.5 to 50 weight % of a cured, water-insoluble synthetic resin selected from the group consisting of (1) a polycondensation product of a polyol and an isocyanate, (2) a polycondensation product of a polyol and a polyisocyanate, (3) a polycondensation product of an isocyanate and/or a polyisocyanate, (4) a polycondensation product of an aromatic hydroxy compound and formaldehyde, (5) a polyisocyanate, (6) an epoxide resin, encapsulating the particles of said ammonium polyphosphate, the wooden articles containing the flame-retarding agent in a concentration of about 5 to 50%, based on the dry wooden chips and/or fibrous materials.
