Abstract: A method of treating wood with an organic phosphonate salt in a liquid phase to chemically modify its surface and thus provide protection from microorganisms. The organic phosphonate salts are of Formula III wherein R1 is a hydrogen radical or an alkyl or aryl radical having 1 to 20 carbon atoms and R2 is a cation selected from the group of NH4+, H+, Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, Fr+, Cu+, Ag+, substituted or unsubstituted ammonium, phosphonium, and sulfonium, methylpyrrolidinium, isothiazolium, isoxazolium, oxazolium, pyrrolium, thiophenium, pyridinium, pyridazinium, pyrimidinium, pyrazinium, imidazolium, pyrazolium, thiazolium, oxazolium, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium , and triazolium, or a mixture thereof, said method preferably comprising using one or more salt compounds having formula III. Products comprising a raw material having been treated according to the method with one or more organic salts of formula III are also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to natural fatty acid based hybride resin, modified with reactive monomers, and to a method for preparing it. The invention also relates to the use of the modified natural fatty acid based hybride resin as binding agent especially in water based coatings, glues and composites, and as environmentally friendly wood impregnating agent. The modified natural fatty acid based hybride resin comprises the condensation product of natural fatty acid or natural fatty acid ester, modified with di- or oligo-carboxylic acid or anhydride or half ester, and natural fatty acid based alkyd resin.
