Abstract: In the current invention, a paraffin or waxy substance is added to a solvent-based parquet adhesive to generate a contiguous film that forms a barrier layer between the adhesive and the surrounding air. This barrier prevents volatile solvents from escaping and contaminating the surrounding air before parquet laying. The protective film can then be destroyed by laying down the parquet strips on the substrate. This process overcomes disadvantages to using state of the art solvent-based adhesives which are susceptible to undesirable swelling of parquet wood and contamination of air.
