Abstract: The co-formulation of a wood preservative (‘treated’) with an inorganic (alkali metal silicates) based flame retardant which undergoes chemical impregnation. Once the ‘treated flame retardant” working solution has fully penetrated (sapwood) into the wood, it then undergoes a heat (fixation) process using various heating schedules to achieve chemical fixation. The treated flame retardant Modified Wood [tfrMW] products are then tested for their enhanced fire performance properties. When heated, wood undergoes thermal degradation and combustion producing gases, vapours, tars & chars. Using the ‘cone calorimeter’ test method, the [tfrMW] products showed a significant reduction in the following parameters: heat release rate (HRR), mass loss rate (MLR) & smoke generated (SEA) values compared to untreated radiata pine.
