  • Patent number: 9376773
    Abstract: What is disclosed is removable outdoor sport flooring consisting of a plurality of floor elements that in turn have a layer of load distribution elements on which a cover layer is applied. The floor elements lie on a damping layer, the load distribution elements, the cover layer and the damping layer being implemented so as to be water-resistant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 15, 2013
    Date of Patent: June 28, 2016

  • Patent number: 7939177
    Abstract: The invention relates to a lignocellulose material comprising a crosslinkable nitrogen compound, technically a formaldehyde condensate, in crosslinked form in a constituent amount (N) of at least 1% by weight, calculated as nitrogen and based on the total weight of the lignocellulose material, in which the ratio (FA/N) of formaldehyde emission (FA), determined by means of the bottle method according to EN 717, part 3, to constituent amount of the nitrogen compound (N) exhibits a value of at most 5.0×10?3, and to a process for the preparation thereof.

  • Publication number: 20080246177
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of moldings from finely divided materials based on lignocellulose, and the moldings obtainable thereby. The invention also relates to the use of aqueous compositions which comprise at least one crosslinkable urea compound for the preparation of finely divided materials based on lignocellulose and treated with this composition for the production of moldings.

  • Publication number: 20080223360
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing modified lignocellulosic materials. Said method consists of the following steps a) the lignocellulosic material is impregnated with an aqueous composition which contains i) at least one cross-linkable nitrogen compound and ii) at least one substance which catalyses the cross-linking, b) the impregnated lignocellulosic materials are treated at higher temperatures in order to remove the water and to cross-link the cross-linkable nitrogen compound. In step b) the impregnated lignocellulosic material is treated with overheated steam. The invention also relates to lignocellulosic materials which are obtained according to said method.
