Abstract:
Polymeric materials containing at least one continuous phase man-made polymer and at least one biodegradable component are protected against microbial attack through the use a combination of a boron-containing compound and an organic biocide. Methods and compositions for preparing treated polymeric materials are provided. A shaped article comprising a continuous phase man-made thermoplastic resin polymer, a biodegradable component, a boron-containing compound and an organic biocide is also provided.
Abstract:
The addition of zinc borate alone or together with a hindered amine light stabilizer and ultra-violet light absorber to organic materials such as thermoplastic polyolefin resin, as is common in wood-plastic composites, provides a substantial reduction in the ultra-violet light degradation of the resin in comparison with similar materials made without zinc borate. This could provide substantial improvements in the long term durability of wood-plastic composites and other organic materials which are used in exterior environments and subject to ultra-violet exposure from the sun.
Abstract:
Lumber, plywood and other wood products are preserved from attack by fungi, termites and wood-destroying insects as well as fire and flame by treatment with a novel zirconium borate-containing preservative composition. The preservative can be formed by combination of a source of boron such as boric acid and the water-soluble salts thereof with a water-soluble zirconium salt. The ZrO2:B2O3 weight ratio in the preservative composition is in the range of from about 0.75:1 to about 10:1.

Abstract:
Lignocellulosic-based composite products containing a pesticidal amount of calcium borate is resistant to attack by wood destroying fungi and insects. The preferred calcium borates are the calcium polytriborates having a CaO:B2O3 molar ratio of about 2:3 and calcium hexaborates, having a CaO:B2O3 ratio of 1:3. Composites can be produced by combining the calcium borate with particles of the lignocellulosic material and an adhesive resin, and forming the composite, generally with heat and pressure.
