Abstract
A hydrophobic fluid includes a solvent-based solution of at least one aliphatic and/or aromatic hydrocarbon, with a chain length of C9 to C15 and at least one ether, ester, ketone and/or an alcohol, in particular a non-flammable alcohol. The hydrophobic fluid also has a fluoropolymer, in particular a non-combustible fluoropolymer with a flash point>60° C. in a proportion of 0.1 to 30 wt. %.
Claims4
A method comprising:
- providing a hydrophobic fluid comprising a solvent-based solution of at least one aliphatic and/or aromatic hydrocarbon, having a chain length of C9 to C15 and a non-flammable alcohol, wherein the hydrophobic fluid additionally comprises a non-flammable fluoropolymer in a proportion of 3 to 4 wt. %;
- and
- applying the hydrophobic fluid to a region of a joint between two components, at least one of the two components is a wood or wood-based material.
