Abstract
Disclosed is a fire-retardant, non-corrosive, insect-resistant, fungus-resistant composition comprising a first flame-retardant agent, a preservative composition, a second flame-retardant agent, a third flame-retardant agent, and a liquid melamine formaldehyde resin adhesive. The composition is to be used for topical application to articles using a spray device, where a layer of a desired thickness is applied.
Claims16
An aqueous, non-corrosive, fire-retardant, insect-resistant, and fungus-resistant composition comprising:
- a) a first flame-retardant agent;
- b) a preservative composition;
- c) a second flame-retardant agent;
- d) a third flame-retardant agent;
- and e) a liquid melamine formaldehyde resin adhesive, wherein the composition is used for topical application to articles and wherein second flame-retardant agent comprises pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol with a weight ratio of pentaerythritol to dipentaerythritol ranging from approximately 20:1 to 100:1.
A method of topically applying an aqueous, non-corrosive, fire-retardant, insect-resistant, and fungus-resistant composition comprising the steps of:
- a) receiving an article for incorporation of a fire-retardant, insect-resistant, and fungus-resistant layer;
- b) preparing a spraying device with a composition comprising a first fire-retardant agent, a preservative composition, a second fire-retardant agent, a third fire-retardant agent, and a liquid melamine formaldehyde resin adhesive;
- and c) spraying said composition onto said article, creating a layer of a desired thickness and wherein second flame-retardant agent comprises pentaerythritol and dipentaerythritol with a weight ratio of pentaerythritol to dipentaerythritol ranging from approximately 20:1 to 100:1.
An aqueous, non-corrosive, fire-retardant, insect-resistant, and fungus-resistant composition comprising:
- a) 30-40% by weight of a melamine-formaldehyde resin;
- b) 1-2% by weight of a urea-formaldehyde resin;
- c) 2-3% by weight of diammonium phosphate;
- d) 5-10% by weight of urea;
- e) 10-40% by weight of water;
- f) 15-20% by weight of pentaerythritol;
- g) 0-1% by weight of dipentaerythritol;
- and h) 15-20% by weight of ammonium polyphosphate.
