Abstract: A paste composition for preserving wood which contains as its only active wood preservation ingredients a mixture of a water-dispersible copper naphthenate and borax.
Abstract: A composition for controlling sapstain and mold on wood having 20% more of moisture comprises an aqueous solution containing at least 0.05% by weight of chlorothalonil and borax in a quantity between 3 and 9 times greater than the weight of the chlorothalonil. The composition is applied to wood by dipping or spraying.
Abstract: A method for both preserving and coloring wood which comprises in a first step contacting the wood with a liquid composition containing a biocidally effective amount of a copper compound, and in a second step contacting the wood with a liquid composition containing a biocidally effective amount of a dithiocarbamate compound selected from the group consisting of alkyl dithiocarbamates, alkylene dithiocarbamates and soluble salts thereof.
Abstract: Our invention pertains to various new compositions, methods for using such compositions and products treated with such compositions. Our new compositions include, among other things, certain antimicrobial agents solubilized with certain disubstituted aryl compounds.

Abstract: In the process for the manufacture of salts of halogenated phenols the economy is improved and health and pollution hazards are reduced by mixing an alkaline agent and the halogenated phenol with a small amount of a liquid medium that is solvent for the alkaline agent, conducting a reaction between the components in a closed system until a dry or almost dry product is obtained, agitating the mixture during at least a part of the liquid medium removal step and discharging the product in particulate form from the closed system.
