Abstract: A two-part flame-retardant, a flame-retardant oriented strand (OSB) and method for forming a flame-retardant OSB is provided. The two-part flame-retardant composition includes an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble flame-retardant and a flame-retardant powder that is incorporated into an oriented strand board without substantially affecting the mechanical properties of the oriented strand board. The method includes applying the aqueous solution containing a water-soluble flame-retardant to an oriented strand board furnish and applying a flame-retardant powder to the wetted furnish, without requiring an additional drying step.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a stabilized anhydrous monocalcium phosphate (MCPA) leavening composition comprising or consisting essentially of MCPA and a non-aluminum stabilizer. Whereas current commercial MCPA leavening compositions are stabilized by the addition of aluminum pyrophosphates, in certain aspects, the stabilized MCPA of this disclosure meets the European standard for allowable aluminum content in food products.
