PRODUCT CATEGORY

Continuous Hot Press for Fireproof Board Substrates & Class A Flame Retardant Certification

Fireproof Board Substrate: Inorganic materials (e.g., calcium silicate, magnesium oxide) or flame-retardant modified wood fiber cores, formed under high temperature/pressure for construction fire barriers.
Continuous Hot Press: Automated equipment using steel belts for continuous conveyance, with zoned pressure and heating for curing substrates.
Class A Certification: Highest fire rating under China’s GB 8624 standard, requiring non-combustibility (strict thresholds for heat release, smoke density, toxic gas).

PB生产流程图


1. Raw Material Preparation  

  Wood fragmentation:Fast-growing forest wood (poplar/cedar) is debarked, sliced, and screened to produce 20-40mm long and 0.2-0.5mm thick particle boards.

  Drying:The drum dryer reduces the moisture content of the particle boards from 40-60% to 2-4% (temperature 120-140℃, to avoid carbonization).

2. Application of Flame Retardants

  Types of Flame Retardants:

  Liquid type: Ammonium phosphate solution (concentration 15-20%)

  Powder type: Polyphosphate ammonium (APP) + Aluminum hydroxide (ATH) compound (ratio 1:1)

Application method:

  Liquid: Ammonium phosphate solution (15-20% conc.) sprayed at 10-12% dosage  

  Powder: APP+ATH blend (1:1 ratio) mixed with UF resin (25-30% of resin solids)

3. Blending & Forming  

  Resin System:Modified UF resin (50-55% solids) + retardant, total adhesive 8-10% of dry flakes

  Layered Forming:  

  Surface: Fine flakes (<0.3mm, 40% for smoothness)  

  Core: Coarse flakes (>1mm, 60% for stability)

     Time: 25-40 seconds/mm thickness  

4. Post-Processing:  

     UV-cured scratch-resistant coating (3-5μm)  

     Surface texturing for stone/wood grain  


.Key Performance Standards  


Fire Rating (GB A-class): Heat release ≤2.0MJ/kg, smoke density ≤15  

Physical Properties: Thermal conductivity 0.15-0.25W/(m·K), flexural strength ≥15MPa  


Ⅴ. Critical Role of Hot Press in Class A Certification  


5.1 Precision Temperature Control:  

 Flame retardants (e.g., aluminum hydroxide, phosphorus-nitrogen compounds) activate within specific ranges (180-220°C). Zoned heating ensures core-layer reaction without under/overburning.  

5.2 Uniform Pressure Penetration:  

 High-pressure zones (>5MPa) force molten retardants into substrate pores, creating dense fire barriers to block oxygen diffusion.  

5.3 Structural Integrity Assurance:  

 Constant-pressure curing eliminates internal stress, preventing post-cooling cracks (which compromise fire resistance) and ensuring structural stability during combustion tests.  


Ⅵ. Technical Requirements for Class A Certification  

6.1 Retardant Compatibility:

 Press components (e.g., chrome-plated belts) must resist acid/alkali corrosion from retardants.  

6.2 Low-Smoke Emission Design:  

 Negative-pressure exhaust systems remove volatile decomposition gases during pressing, reducing smoke density in later combustion.  

6.3 Process Traceability:  

 Temperature/pressure curves must be recorded to verify activation conditions for certification audits.  


Ⅶ. Certification Value  


Regulatory Compliance: Mandatory for interior applications (especially high-rises/public spaces).  

Performance Edge: Certified substrates achieve 1-3 hours fire resistance (EN 13501-2).
