Definitions
- the invention relates to a fire protection agent for boards or molded parts made of chips or fibers, which were obtained from wood or components of annual plants, and to such boards and molded parts containing such a fire protection agent.
- the invention further relates to a method for fire-resistant equipping of such plates or molded parts.
- Sheets or molded parts of the type mentioned are generally highly flammable. Due to their material properties, however, they are used in a variety of ways as a material, for example in furniture construction, in the interior construction of buildings and in motor vehicles. In many possible uses, however, the easy flammability of the chipboard or fiberboard and molded parts, which results from the easy flammability of the organic raw materials used, interferes. Especially in the construction industry, for safety reasons, efforts are being made to use only flame-retardant or fire-resistant materials.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of proposing a fire protection agent with which plates or molded parts made of chips or fibers, which are made of Wood or components of annual plants have been obtained, can be made fire-resistant. Furthermore, it is an object of the invention to provide panels and molded parts of the type mentioned which are fire-resistant or highly fire-resistant and to propose a method for fire-resistant finishing of panels or molded parts of the type mentioned.
- the proposed fire protection agent must be compatible with the usual binders for gluing the chips or fibers and must not develop smoke gases harmful to health under the influence of flames.
- This object is achieved according to the invention with a fire protection agent which contains 65 to 85, preferably 74 parts by weight of ammonium sulfate, 10 to 25, preferably 19 parts by weight of borax and 4 to 10, preferably 7 parts by weight of trisodium phosphate.
- the sheets and moldings proposed according to the invention contain this fire protection agent.
- the method according to the invention for the fire-resistant finishing of panels or molded parts of the type mentioned at the beginning comprises the following method steps:
- the impregnated chips or fibers are dried to a moisture content of approximately 1% to approximately 12%, preferably 1 to 4%,
- the impregnated and dried chips or fibers are glued with a binder
- the proposed fire protection agent is a mixture of inorganic salts which contain no chlorides and are not toxic. It is compatible with all known condensation and polymerization resins, for example urea, melamine and phenol formaldehyde resins, epoxy resins, novolak resins, PMDI resins, etc. In addition, it does not cause harmful gases to evaporate from the finished plate or the finished one Molding.
- the ammonium sulfate contained in the proposed fire protection agent promotes the surface charring of cellulose through the formation of sulfuric acid.
- the trisodium phosphate also contained in the fire protection agent decomposes from 75 ° C to NaOH and P 2 0 5 ; it has emulsifying, water softening and buffering properties.
- a fire protection agent is obtained with which plates or molded parts made of chips or fibers, which have been obtained from wood or components of annual plants, can be made fire-resistant.
- An advantageous development of the fire protection agent according to the invention is that an additional 0.5 to 2 parts by weight, preferably 1 part by weight, of sodium metasilicate is added.
- Sodium metasilicate has a water-softening effect, has a wetting agent effect and a disinfectant effect and releases water when heated. If it is added to a solution of the fire protection agent, it serves as a wetting agent and thus promotes the wetting of the chips or fibers with the fire protection agent.
- An advantageous side effect is the fungicidal and insecticidal properties that the fire retardant obtains by adding the sodium metasilicate.
- the proposed fire protection agent is best used when it is in an aqueous solution, the solution concentration being 20 to 50%, preferably 30 to 35%.
- the chips or fibers can be impregnated with the fire protection agent and thus impregnated even before being instructed and pressed into sheets or molded parts.
- This fire protection agent can comprise ammonium sulfate, borax and trisodium phosphate in the mixture ratios indicated above or, as an advantageous further development, additionally contain sodium metasilicate.
- fire-resistant plates or molded parts are produced from chips or fibers using the method described in claim 11.
- a solution of the proposed fire protection agent is therefore used to pre-impregnate the chips or fibers with which the chips or fibers are impregnated.
- the fire protection agent can contain the salt mixture specified in claim 1 or the salt mixture described in claim 2.
- the fire protection agent is preferably present in an aqueous solution with a concentration of 20 to 50%, preferably 30 to 35%.
- the chips or fibers can be pre-impregnated with the fire protection agent in an immersion bath or by injecting the fire protection agent into a continuous mixer or a mixing screw.
- the density of the fire protection agent solution used is preferably approximately 1.2 g / cm 3 , it having a pH in the slightly alkaline range, preferably approximately 8.5.
- the impregnated chips or fibers To glue the chips or fibers, these must usually not exceed a moisture content of approx. 12%. Therefore, after impregnation with an aqueous fire protection agent solution, it is necessary to dry the impregnated chips or fibers. After drying, the impregnated chips or fibers have a pH of approx. 3.5 to 4.5.
- Urea or melamine resins are preferably used for gluing the chips or fibers impregnated with the fire protection agent. This offers the great advantage that the ammonium sulfate contained in the fire retardant dissociates during the pressing of the chips or fibers due to the resulting heating and acts as a hardener for the binder. The addition of a separate hardening substance is therefore unnecessary.
- PMDI resins are preferably used as binders.
- the result of the method according to the invention consists of plates or molded parts made of chips or fibers which are fire-resistant to highly fire-resistant, without it being necessary to apply an additional flame-retardant coating.
- the invention is explained further below using two examples.
- Pine wood chips were obtained in a known manner by machining round wood, so that their length was 5 to 15 mm, their width 2 to 4 mm and their thickness 0.2 to 0.5 mm. These chips were pre-dried to a moisture content of approximately 30%.
- a fire protection agent solution of the following composition was added to the predried chips in a continuous mixer.
- the ratio between the mass of the added fire protection agent solution and the dry mass of the chips was 0.6.
- the impregnated chip was then dried in a drum dryer to a residual moisture of approx. 1% and metered into a glue mixer.
- An aqueous binder of the following composition was added to the impregnated chip in the glue mixer.
- the dried, impregnated chip had a pH of 3.5 to 4 and the added fire retardant thus acted as a hardener when pressed.
- the ratio between the mass of the aqueous binder and the mass of the dried, impregnated chip was approximately 0.2.
- the glued chips were sprinkled into a fleece and pressed into a particle board for 3.4 minutes at a temperature of 180 ° C. with a pressing time factor of 10 sec / mm.
- the chipboard produced in this way had the following parameters:
- Thickness 20.4 mm
- the finished chipboard can be used as a furniture board in dry and damp rooms as well as outdoors according to DIN standards 68761 (parts 1 and 4), 68762, 68763 and 68800.
- the fire-resistant equipment of the chipboard was tested by pointing the full flame of a Bunsen burner at a distance of 13.5 cm to the surface of the board, whereby the temperature was between 800 ° C and 1000 ° C. A flame treatment of 5 minutes could not cause the particle board to ignite. Only a surface charring was found; the smoke development was extremely low.
- the chipboard met the requirements of DIN standard 4102.
- Wheat straw was chopped up to a length of 4 to 8 mm, a width of 0.5 to 2 mm and a thickness of about 0.15 mm. These straw fibers were mixed in a mixing screw with a fire protection agent solution of the following composition:
- the impregnated straw fibers were then freed of excess fire protection agent solution in a dewatering screw and then dried to a residual moisture content of approximately 4%.
- the impregnated and glued straw fibers were sprinkled into a fleece, heated in a preheating station to a core temperature of approx. 60 ° C. and then for 4.4 minutes, at a temperature of 200 ° C. and with a pressing time factor of 15 sec / mm, pressed into a fiberboard.
- the finished fiberboard had the following parameters:
- Thickness 17.5 mm
- This fiberboard was also exposed to the flame of a Bunsen burner at a distance of 13.5 cm, so that a temperature between 800 ° C. and 1000 ° C. resulted on the surface of the plate. After a flaming time of 5 minutes, the plate experienced no change except for surface charring that developed without flame formation. There was only very little smoke development.
- the DIN standard 4102 was also met.
