Pmdi wood binders containing hydrophobic diluents

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for producing lignocellulose composite materials by combining lignocellulose particles with a binder composition, followed by molding or compressing the combined lignocellulose particles and binder composition. Suitable binder compositions comprise a polymethylene poly(phenylisocyanate) component and a liquid hydrophobic diluent that is characterized by a flash point of at least 250° F.
