Definitions

  • the invention relates to an aqueous alcoholic phenol formaldehyde resin solution suitable for one-step impregnation of kraft paper for the preparation of fire-resistant laminates, containing alkyl phosphates and/or salts thereof and ammonium bromide.
  • the invention relates to phenol formaldehyde resin solutions being particularly suitable for the preparation of fire-resistant laminates and having good storage stability.
  • the kraft paper is first impregnated with an aqueous solution of one or more fire-preventing agents, usually inorganic salts, whereafter the paper is dried and then impregnated with a solution of phenol formaldehyde resin in aqueous alcohol.
  • fire-preventing agents usually inorganic salts
  • ammonium bromide had a better inhibiting effect on the smoke temperature (which is an indication of fire-preventing effect) than ammonium methyl phosphates, while the opposite was the case for the smoke development.
  • ammonium bromide alone makes it necessary to use unreasonably large amounts to obtain a satisfactory low smoke development
  • ammonium methyl phosphates (or other inorganic or organic phosphates) alone makes it necessary to use unreasonably large amounts to obtain a satisfactory fire-preventing effect.
  • This also confirms the necessity of using the large amounts of phosphate used according to the above mentioned British Patent, since in the fire-preventing phosphate used it is only the phosphate group itself which exerts any fire-preventing efiect.
  • a fire-preventing, storage stable phenol formaldehyde resin solution being particularly suitable for one-step impregnation of kraft paper for the preparation of laminates
  • the resin solution is characterized in that it contains from 1 to 10 percent by weight of C alkyl phosphates and/or ammonium salts thereof and from 2 to 10 percent by weight of ammonium bromide, and in that it contains a C alkanol and water in a ratio by weight of alkanol/water of at least 0.60, preferably between 0.85 and 2.
  • the percentages by weight stated are calculated as anhydrous substance relative to the total solution of resin and fire-preventing compounds in alcohol and water.
  • the resin content (dry weight) in the resin solution will normally be from 35 to 50 percent by weight. If more than 50 percent by weight is used the stability of the resin solution will not be satisfactory for prolonged storage, and if less than 35 percent by weight is used the solution will contain insufiicient resin to give a satisfactory laminate.
  • EXAMPLE A solution A was prepared from 450 grams of a phenol formaldehyde resin solution and grams of ethanol.
  • the phenol formaldehyde resin solution consists of about 65 percent by weight. of alkali catalyzed phenol fonnaldehyde resin having a molar ratio of formaldehyde/phenol of 1.44, about 17 percent by weight of water, about 11 percent by weight of ethanol and about 7 percent by weight of free formaldehyde and phenol, so that 450 grams thereof contains about 295 grams of resin, 75 grams of water, 50 grams of ethanol and 30 grams of unreacted formaldehyde and phenol.
  • a solution B was prepared from 44 grams of ammonium bromide, 4i grams of aqueous ammonium methyl phosphates (consisting of about 65 percent by weight of ammonium methyl phosphates and 35 percent by weight of water, i.e. about 27 and 14 grams respectively) and 60 grams of water.
  • the two solutions A and B were thoroughly mixed and adjusted to a pH of about 5.2 by means of 25 percent ammonia.
  • the resulting mixture had a content of ammonium methyl phosphates of about 3.5 percent and of ammonium bromide of about 6 percent by weight, and an ethanol/water ratio of about 1.3.
  • the mixture was homogeneous and remained completely clear for more than 4 months at room temperature. Laminates prepared with this mixture fulfilled with good margin the requirements with respect to flame spread and smoke development set up by the Norwegian Veritas for surface materials for use in corridors and stairs.
  • ammonium methyl phosphates it is also possible to employ ammonium ethyl-, -propyland -butyl phosphates, however, since ammonium methyl phosphates contain most of the active phosphate group per unit weight and also give the most stable solutions they are preferred.
  • the pure C alkyl phosphates may also be employed, although the stability of the solutions containing these will not be as good as for solutions containing ammonium methyl phosphates;
  • a phenol-formaldehyde solution suitable for one-step impregnation of kraft paper for the preparation of fire-resistant laminates and having excellent storage stability comprising from 35 to 50 percent by weight of phenol formaldehyde resin, from 1 to 10 percent by weight of a phosphate selected from the group of C alkyl phosphates, and C alkyl ammonium phosphates, and from 2 to 10 percent by weight of ammonium bromide, and a solvent which is a mixture of C alkanol and water in a ratio by weight of alkanol to water between about 0.60 and about 2.0.
  • Resin solution according to claim 1, wherein the phosphates are ammonium methyl phosphates.
