Abstract: Composite panels may be prepared using a moisture resistance additive having a formulation that includes a triglyceride having a saponification value of at least 150 and an iodine value of at least 35. The additive may be used in the form of a water emulsion. The water emulsion may be prepared by dispersing the components of the additive formulation under conditions sufficient to at least partially saponify the triglyceride. The moisture resistance additive can impart resistance to moisture absorption and thickness swelling to composite panels prepared therewith.

Abstract: Polymerized oils (heat-bodied oils) were hydrogenated to make a semi-crystalline wax-like material. The process of the present invention yields hydrogenated polymerized oils that can be used as bio-renewable replacements for micro-crystalline wax and petrolatums raw materials in products that are comprised of such materials. The present invention is directed to a composition comprising a hydrogenated polymerized oil, a composition consisting essentially of a hydrogenated polymerized oil and a process of preparing a hydrogenated polymerized oil. The present invention is also directed to a composition comprising a hydrogenated blown oil, a composition consisting essentially of a hydrogenated blown oil and a process for preparing a hydrogenated blown oil.

Abstract: Waxes prepared from hydrogenated plant oils, such as palm and soybean, are used to render cellulosic materials resistant to water. Unlike cellulosic materials rendered water resistant with waxes obtained using petroleum-derived or synthetic waxes, the water resistant cellulosic materials prepared using this composition are recyclable using conventional paper recycling methods; the composition is dispersible in warm water solutions. Such water resistant materials are characterized by enhanced moisture barrier properties. The compositions have a low iodine value (between 2-5), and melting points between approximately 120-165 degrees F. (Mettler Drop Point). The wax comprises a triglyceride whose fatty acids are predominantly stearic acid (C18).. The composition is used as an additive in the manufacture of wax coated boxes and adhesive compounds used in boxboard packaging and manufacturing operations.
