The invention discloses an attapulgite-based nano-scale wood
fire retardant. A preparation method of the attapulgite-based nano-scale wood
fire retardant comprises the following steps of weighing respectively raw materials by weight part, pouring an acid solution into attapulgite, carrying out stirring, supersonic treatment, standing and
decantation of upper suspension at a normal temperature, washing solids by deionized water, wherein the solids are obtained by repeated
centrifugation,
drying attapulgite modified by an acid,
grinding into
powder, dividing the
powder into two parts, preserving the two parts in a sealed environment, mixing water-soluble
flame-retardant ingredients and one of the two parts, treating the other one of the two parts by an
aluminate coupling agent
aqueous solution with stirring at a normal temperature for 8 hours, mixing
flame-retardant suspension and the attapulgite
aqueous solution obtained by the previous step, and stirring the mixture for 20 minutes to obtain a attapulgite-based nano-scale wood
fire retardant solution. Through vacuum pressurization, the attapulgite-based nano-scale wood fire retardant can be injected into
solid wood, wood single boards, wooden fibers or
wood shavings without changes of other production processes so that
flame-retardant artificial boards or
solid wood with efficient flame retardance are obtained.
