Prefabricated building panel having an insect and fungicide deterrent therein

A prefabricated building panel comprising:

• a core of a plurality of layers of foam plastic material, at least one of said plurality of layers of foam plastic material having between 1 weight percent and about 20 weight percent of a borate compound encapsulated therein said core comprising:
• a substantially dense first layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense first layer being thermoset foam plastic having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch, and having two opposed surfaces, one of said two opposed first layer surfaces securely affixed to a first surface of a second foam plastic layer, a substantially dense third layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense third layer, of thermoset foam plastic material having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch and having two opposed surfaces one third layer surface securely affixed to a second surface of said second foam plastic layer, said core having two opposed and substantially vertical core edges, and two opposed and substantially horizontal core edges defining thereby the size of said panel;
• an inner skin, hard and dense relative to said core, and having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said third layer surface;
• a hard, dense outer skin, hard and dense relative to said core, and having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said first layer surface.

A prefabricated building panel comprising:

• a core of a plurality of layers of foam plastic material comprising:
• a substantially dense first layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense first layer being thermoset foam plastic having substantially uniform thickness of between about 0.125 and 1.000 inches and having two opposed surfaces, one of said two opposed first layer surfaces securely affixed to a first surface of a second foam plastic layer said core having edges defining thereby the size of said panel;
• and
• a skin of hard and dense relative to said core and wherein said hard, dense skin is material selected from waferboard, oriented strand board, fiberboard, plaster board, sheetrock, wood panel, wire, wire reinforced paper, pressboard, particle board, plywood, metal, plastic, fiber reinforced concrete and poly-concrete having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said first layer surfaces.

A prefabricated building panel comprising:

• a core of a plurality of layers of foam plastic material comprising:
• a substantially dense first layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense first layer being thermoset foam plastic having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch, and having two opposed surfaces, one of said two opposed first layer surfaces securely affixed to a first surface of a second foam plastic layer, a substantially dense third layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense first layer of thermoset foam plastic material having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch and having two opposed surfaces one third layer surface securely affixed to a second surface of said second foam plastic layer, said core having two opposed and substantially vertical core edges, and two opposed and substantially horizontal core edges defining thereby the size of said panel;
• an inner skin hard and dense relative to said core and having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said third layer surface;
• an outer skin hard and dense relative to said core and wherein said outer skin is material selected from waferboard, oriented strand board, fiberboard, plastic board, sheetrock, wood panel, wire, wire reinforced paper, pressboard, particle board, plywood, metal, plastic, fiber reinforced concrete and poly-concrete having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said first layer surface.

An improved prefabricated building panel having a core of a plurality of layers of foam plastic material said core comprising;

• a substantially dense first layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense first layer said first layer being thermoset foam plastic having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch, and having two opposed surfaces, one of said two opposed first layer surfaces securely affixed to a first surface of a second foam plastic layer, a substantially dense third layer substantially free of voids to the extent that fluids cannot pass through said dense third layer and said third layer being thermoset foam plastic material having substantially uniform thickness of at least about one-half inch and having two opposed surfaces with one third layer surface securely affixed to a second surface of said second foam plastic layer, said core having two opposed and substantially vertical core edges, and two opposed and substantially horizontal core edges defining thereby the size of said panel;
• being a hard, dense inner skin, hard and dense relative to said core, and having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said third layer surface;
• a outer skin, which is hard and dense relative to said core, and having a predetermined thickness and sized substantially the same as and securely affixed to another of said first layer surfaces wherein said hard, dense inner skin and outer skin is material selected from;
• waferboard, oriented strand board, fiberboard, plastic board, sheetrock, wood panel, wire, wire reinforced paper, pressboard, particle board, plywood, metal, plastic, fiber reinforced concrete and poly-concrete said improvement comprising:
• between about 1 weight percent and about 20 weight percent of a borate compound encapsulated within at least one layer of said plurality of layers of foam plastic material.
