MICRONIZED WOOD PRESERVATIVE FORMULATIONS

摘要

The present invention provides wood preservative compositions comprising micronized panicles. In one embodiment, the composition comprises dispersions of micronized metal or metal compounds. In another embodiment, the wood preservative composition comprises an inorganic component comprising a metal or metal compound and organic biocide. When the composition comprises an inorganic component and an organic biocide, the inorganic component or the organic biocide or both are present as micronized particles. When compositions of the present invention are used for preservation of wood, there is minimal leaching of the metal and biocide from the wood.

主权项

1. A wood product comprising:
(a) a dispersion in water of a biocidally effective amount of particles of copper carbonate or basic copper carbonate having a particle size of between 0.001 and 25 microns; and (b) a biocidally effective amount of one or more organic biocides selected from cyproconazole, propiconazole, and tebuconazole, wherein the particles of the copper carbonate or basic copper carbonate are distributed within the wood product and render the wood product resistant to fungal decay.
