  • Publication number: 20230227726
    Abstract: The current invention concerns a fire retardant composition for use in wood composite panels, either comprising a fire retardant agent or an intumescent formulation, whereby the pH of a 10% aqueous solution of said composition lies between 3.5 and 8.5. The present invention also provides for a specific use of the composition in fire retardant wood composite panels, the respective method for producing those panels, as well as the resulting wood composite panels themselves.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 11484885
    Abstract: The current invention concerns a method for producing an aqueous dispersion suitable for being used as a flame retardant additive to wood composite panels. At least one pH-regulator, at least one inorganic thickener, and optionally at least one smoke suppressing agent is added to a premix while maintaining the actuation of wet-milling systems until the dispersion is obtained.

  • Patent number: 8642184
    Abstract: Fire-resistant OSB (oriented strand board) material consisting of a middle layer and two outer layers, wherein the layers primarily consist of bonded wood flakes. There are one or more fire-retardant agents in the middle layer and one or both outer layers, and the nature and/or the concentrations of them in the middle layer are different from the nature and/or the concentrations of them in one or both outer layers.
