~ACRGROUND OF THE I~VENTION
1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to anti-skid compositions and is particularly related to an anti-skid composition and method for coating structural panel board and other substrates in order to impart slip resistance thereto.
2. Description of the Prior Art Plywood is widely used in the construction industry and has been the material traditionally used to sheath sloping roof decks. Plywood, however, is costly and therefore efforts have been made to replace plywood with Waferboard, the trade name for a less expensive structural panel board composed of wood flakes, phenol-formaldehyde resin and slack wax.
Waferboàrd is generally composed of wafers or flakes of wood, poplar being preferred, of about 0.020 inches to 0.080 inches thick, about 2 inches long and about 2 inches wide. The wafers are bonded together with a waterproof adhesive, such as an isocyanate or phenol formaldehyde, wherein the adhesive solids can vary from about 1 to 5 weight percent of the wood flakes. Waferboard , 1 *
or panel boaxd also generally includes about 0.25 to 0.75 weight percent wax solids to enhance its water repellency.
However, waferboard suffers from inherent disadvantages compared to plywood for roofing applications.
When wet, a condition that would be frequently encountered on rooftops exposed to rain, waferboard exhihits a very low coefficient of friction. Consequently, there is an increased danger of slippage to materials and personnel working on sloped roofs which are sheathed with waferboard.
Waferboard has a coefficient of *riction of about 0.415.
Coefficient of friction (~ is defined as ratio of the force (F) required to move one surface over another to the total force (W) pressing the two surfaces together in the following relationship:
~ = F
Although plywood is more expensive than waferboard, it has a much higher surface coefficient of friction and thus does not have the disadvantages of waferboard.
Consequently, waferboard has not been heretofore successful in replacing plywood as a material in roof construction.
Efforts to improve the surface coefficient of friction of waferboard have included texturing its surface by using screens and embossed cauls during its manufacture.
.~ .
:' .
' , ~ ~ ) However, this technique is cumbersome and has not resulted in significant increases in the surface coefficient of friction of the waferboard.
Various anti-skid compositions have been suggested for coating plywood and other structural materials in order to impart slip resistance thereto. For example, U.S. Patent No. 3,527,146 to Garling discloses a non-skid coating composition which comprises a bonding composition and an aggregate. The aggregate is an elastomeric pol~mer such as ground vulcanized rubber and can include such ingredients as iron oxide pigment, titanium dioxide and fine silica.
Numerous resins are disclosed as the bonding composition, such as various phenol-formaldehyde resins used with urea, and polyvinyl acetate as an aqueous emulsion vehicle.
U.S. Patent No. 3,598,677 to Bergmeister discloses a method of preventing slippage amongst stacked packages of paper, cardboard and the like by providing an anti-slip adhesive comprising an aqueous dispersion of an adhesive olefinic compound in admixture with inorganic or organic pigments. An aqueous dispersion of polyvinyl acetate is disclosed as an anti-slip adhesive, and wood flour or peanut shell flour are disclosed as fillers for the pigment.

SUl~RY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is an anti-skid coating composition which comprises urea formaldehyde rssin, polyvinyl acetate, aggregate, ammonium chloride catalyst and a dispersant for the catalyst.
. :
,, ~3~
Structural panel board surfaces and other substrates coated with the-inventive composition exhibit a high degree of slip resistance and can replace the more expensive plywo~d for sheathing sloping roof decks and similar structures.
DESCRIPTION OF ~HE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT8 In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that when structural panel board surfaces and other substrates are coated with the anti-skid composition of this invention, the resulting surface coated substrate exhibits a significant increase in coef~icient of friction,~and can compete commercially with plywood for various uses including sheathing sloping roof decks.
The anti-skid composition of this invention comprises a binder of urea-formaldehyde resin, polyvinyl acetate, ammonium chloride and a dispersant, such as walnut shell powder, in conjunction with coarsely ground aggregate, such as walnut shell aggregate.
In order to produce structural panel board surfaces with sufficient slip-resistant properties, the binder mixture of urea-formaldehyde resin and polyvinyl acetate emulsion with the ammonium chloride catalyst is applied to the panel board surface, followed by the application of the ,:
, ~
.
.. ~ , . .
i~
aggregate, and a second coating application of the anti-skid binder composition.
The urea for~aldehyde resin functions as a binder for the aggregate. The success of urea for~aldehyde as a major component in the anti-skid composi~ion of the present invention was surprising due to the fact that urea formaldehyde resin alone does not possess the water resistant properties necessary for the anti-skid coating composition of this invention.
The reaction product of a minor amount of polyvinyl acetate with urea formaldehyde has been found to dramatically improve the water resistance of the an~i-skid coating composition.
The preparation of urea formaldehyde resins is covered in Moslemi, Particleboard, Vol. 1, "Materials" chapter 6, pages 67 to 74 ~Southern Illinois University Press, 1974).
It is important that the urea formaldehyde resin in the anti-skid binder composition of this invention be of a highly reactive nature with a boiling water reactivity time of about 25 to 90 seconds. A preferred urea formaldehyde resin is BA-059TM
(Reichhold Chemicals, Inc.) havlng the following specifications:
.` ~ .
Non-volatile Content 60% max.
Viscosity (Brookfield at 25~C) 350-4S0 cps Free formaldehyde 0.2% max.
pH 7.3-7.7 Reactivity at 100C (PMT-E20) 70-90 seconds Specific Gravity 1.260 If desired, melamine formaldehyde resin can be substituted for about 5 to 10 weight % of the urea formaldehyde resin solids. The urea formaldehyde resin generally contains about 55 to 65% non-volatiles, preferably about 60%, and can vary fxom about 85 to 95%, more preferably akout 87.5 to 92.5% by weight of the anti-skid binder composition.
It is important that the amount of polyvinyl acetate in the anti-skid binder composition not fall below about 3 weight %, and can vary from about 3 to about 20% by weight, preferably about 5 to 10% by weight of the binder.
The polyvinyl acetate is utilized in the form of an emulsion.
If less than 3 weight % of polyvinyl acetate is used, the weather resistance of the coating will be compromised to the extent that the coated structural panel board will not be able to satisfactorily endure short term expo~ure. Above about 20 weight % polyvinyl acetate, the pot : . -, $ ~ ~
life will be adversely af~ected. Cost also becomes a consideration.
The polyvinyl acetate in the binder formulation can be replaced by other equivalent resins such as, for example, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, or an acrylic copolymer,such as DX-101 UNLIPOL~ (Reichhold Chemicals, Inc.) either partially or totally.
The ammonium chloride acts as a catalyst to lower the pH of the mixture and enhances rapid cure of the coating composition.
The amount of ammonium chloride catalyst in the anti-skid binder composition can vary from about 0.25 to 3.0%, preferably from about 0.5 to 1.5 weight %. Less than 0.25% ammonium chloride will give a slow cure. If desired, ammonium sulfate can partially replace the ammonium chloride, or can be used in admixture with the ammonium chloride, in ratios of NH4Cl:(NH4)2SO4 of about 1-99:99-1, respectively.
The ammonium chloride catalyst is usually dispersed by dry blending with a dispersant such as walnut shell powder having a flour-like consistency, preferably with a particle size of about 80% through 325 mesh and a moisture content of about 5%.

s~
As noted, walnut shell powder is not itself a catalyst but is used to disperse the ammonium chloride and to control the viscosity of the coating composition, thus preventing its penetration into the panel board. Moreover, the walnut shell powdPr is to be distinguished from the walnut shells which can be used as aggregate whose primary function is to impart anti-skid properties to the coating.
Other dispersants can also be used such as pecan shell powder, bark powder, furafil powder, wood powder or wheat powder. These dispersants can be used in place of the walnut shell powder, in admixture therewith/ or in admixture with each other. The most important requirement of the dispersant is thak it provide a homogenous mix at a sprayable viscosity of about 300 to 1200 centipoise preferably, 400 to 500 centipoise. The amount of dispersant can vary from about 15 to about 60%, preferably from about 20 to about 40% by weight of the ammonium chloride catalyst.
For commercial applications in roo~ construction, it is necessary that the coating composition cure quickly in order to prevent "blocking" of the stacked coated panel boards after exiting from the press in the mill. Blocking occurs when stacked panels adhere together. This happens when the panels are not fully cured when they enter the stack. Cure time of about ~ to about 1~ mimltes at 350F, .
:
.
2 ~
preferably abo~t 1 minute at 350F is necessary for the composition to be suitable for coating panel board surfaces.
The ingredients o~ th~ binder must be blended in proper relative amounts to insure that the resulting coating will meet the required time-temperature cure criteria. The relative amount of each component in the anti-skid binder composition can vary as follows:
Amount, Component ~ by weiqht Urea Formaldehyde Resin (aqueous) 85 to 95 Catalyst composed of ammonium chloride and walnut shell flour 0.25 to 3 Polyvinyl Acetate Emulsion ~aqueous) 3 to 20 The anti-skid binder composition is generally applied to hot structural panel board having a temperature of about 300 to 350F in a first coating, with an intermediate aggregate coating, followed by a second coating of the binder composition.
The binder coating is generally applied by spraying at a rate of 95-120 grams per square meter per application while the shell aggregate is generally sprinkled on at a rate of 30-55 grams per square meter of panel board, at a temperature of about 15 to 30C~
'- 10 ,; . : i::.
':
~3~
The aggregate in the anti-skid coating composition is used to impart anti-skid properties to the panel board. The amount of aggregate in the anti-skid coating composition depends on the desired extent of anti-skid properties. This amount can vary ~rom about 20 to about 70 grams, and preferably from about 30 to about 55 grams per square meter of structural panel board surface. The aggregate is pxeferably ground to particle sizes in the range of about 20 mesh to 60 mesh. The amount of aggregate generally varies ~rom about 10 lo to 30~ by weight of the binder.
An aggregate composed of ground walnut shells can conveniently be used and can also be replaced partially or totally by rubber chips, waste plastic aggregate, or other equivalent aggregate material or combination of aggregate material that is economically feasible and that does not dull sawblades, or other cutting blades used in the installation of panel board. Thus, for example, coarse silicon would not be an acceptable aggregate material because it acts to dull sawblades used to cut the panel board.
The anti~skid binding composition is uniformly applied as a coating to the panel board surface by spraying or other equivalent means. The amount of coating applied, referred to as the "spread", can vary from about 75 to 140 grams per square meter of the structural panel board surface, 11 ~~
.
, ' ' ' :
:;. .
2~3~
preferably from about 95 to about 120 grams per square meter.
The anti-skid binding composition applied to the panel board surface is made by blending liquid urea formaldehyde resin with an aqueous emulsion of polyvinyl acetate and the ammonium chloride-walnut shell flour in suitable blending equipment. The desired mix viscosity can vary from about 400 to about 500 cPntipoise, as measured by Brookfield viscometer, Model LVF, No. 3 spindle at 60 revolutions per minute (rpm) and 25C.
It has been found that the anti-skid coating composition of the present invention fulfills the stringent requirements for a non-slip panel board coating which include:
- low cost - non-flammability - weather rèsistance - quick cure - suitability for short production runs - good adhesion In addition, despite the use of urea formaldehyde resin, the emission level of formaldehyde is not significantly raised to an undesirable level. Formaldehyde emissions on the order of about 0.10 to 0.30 mg/liter of formaldehyde can be expected, as determined by the Canadian Test Method for Emission of Formaldehyde From Wood Products Two Hour Dessicator Test - Issue #2 - 1988 (Formaldehyde Council, 350 Sparks Street, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada KlR 7S8). This is well ~- 12 ~: ,, , : `'' ~' : '' , ,.
: . :
~ ' ~
below the industry norm of about 0.7 mg/liter to 1.4 mg/liter for particleboard. High levels of formaldehyde emission become a concern when storing large quantities o~ structural panel board in enclosed spaces, such as in warehouses.
Panel board is considered dry at an average moisture content of 8~ or less at a relative humidi~y of 65+1% and a temperature of 20+3~C, in accordance with Canadian Standards Association (CSA) CAN3-0437.0-M85 for waferboard and strandboard.

SUl~RY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is an anti-skid coating composition which comprises urea formaldehyde rssin, polyvinyl acetate, aggregate, ammonium chloride catalyst and a dispersant for the catalyst.
. :
,, ~3~
Structural panel board surfaces and other substrates coated with the-inventive composition exhibit a high degree of slip resistance and can replace the more expensive plywo~d for sheathing sloping roof decks and similar structures.
DESCRIPTION OF ~HE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT8 In accordance with the present invention, it has been discovered that when structural panel board surfaces and other substrates are coated with the anti-skid composition of this invention, the resulting surface coated substrate exhibits a significant increase in coef~icient of friction,~and can compete commercially with plywood for various uses including sheathing sloping roof decks.
The anti-skid composition of this invention comprises a binder of urea-formaldehyde resin, polyvinyl acetate, ammonium chloride and a dispersant, such as walnut shell powder, in conjunction with coarsely ground aggregate, such as walnut shell aggregate.
In order to produce structural panel board surfaces with sufficient slip-resistant properties, the binder mixture of urea-formaldehyde resin and polyvinyl acetate emulsion with the ammonium chloride catalyst is applied to the panel board surface, followed by the application of the ,:
, ~
.
.. ~ , . .
i~
aggregate, and a second coating application of the anti-skid binder composition.
The urea for~aldehyde resin functions as a binder for the aggregate. The success of urea for~aldehyde as a major component in the anti-skid composi~ion of the present invention was surprising due to the fact that urea formaldehyde resin alone does not possess the water resistant properties necessary for the anti-skid coating composition of this invention.
The reaction product of a minor amount of polyvinyl acetate with urea formaldehyde has been found to dramatically improve the water resistance of the an~i-skid coating composition.
The preparation of urea formaldehyde resins is covered in Moslemi, Particleboard, Vol. 1, "Materials" chapter 6, pages 67 to 74 ~Southern Illinois University Press, 1974).
It is important that the urea formaldehyde resin in the anti-skid binder composition of this invention be of a highly reactive nature with a boiling water reactivity time of about 25 to 90 seconds. A preferred urea formaldehyde resin is BA-059TM
(Reichhold Chemicals, Inc.) havlng the following specifications:
.` ~ .
Non-volatile Content 60% max.
Viscosity (Brookfield at 25~C) 350-4S0 cps Free formaldehyde 0.2% max.
pH 7.3-7.7 Reactivity at 100C (PMT-E20) 70-90 seconds Specific Gravity 1.260 If desired, melamine formaldehyde resin can be substituted for about 5 to 10 weight % of the urea formaldehyde resin solids. The urea formaldehyde resin generally contains about 55 to 65% non-volatiles, preferably about 60%, and can vary fxom about 85 to 95%, more preferably akout 87.5 to 92.5% by weight of the anti-skid binder composition.
It is important that the amount of polyvinyl acetate in the anti-skid binder composition not fall below about 3 weight %, and can vary from about 3 to about 20% by weight, preferably about 5 to 10% by weight of the binder.
The polyvinyl acetate is utilized in the form of an emulsion.
If less than 3 weight % of polyvinyl acetate is used, the weather resistance of the coating will be compromised to the extent that the coated structural panel board will not be able to satisfactorily endure short term expo~ure. Above about 20 weight % polyvinyl acetate, the pot : . -, $ ~ ~
life will be adversely af~ected. Cost also becomes a consideration.
The polyvinyl acetate in the binder formulation can be replaced by other equivalent resins such as, for example, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, or an acrylic copolymer,such as DX-101 UNLIPOL~ (Reichhold Chemicals, Inc.) either partially or totally.
The ammonium chloride acts as a catalyst to lower the pH of the mixture and enhances rapid cure of the coating composition.
The amount of ammonium chloride catalyst in the anti-skid binder composition can vary from about 0.25 to 3.0%, preferably from about 0.5 to 1.5 weight %. Less than 0.25% ammonium chloride will give a slow cure. If desired, ammonium sulfate can partially replace the ammonium chloride, or can be used in admixture with the ammonium chloride, in ratios of NH4Cl:(NH4)2SO4 of about 1-99:99-1, respectively.
The ammonium chloride catalyst is usually dispersed by dry blending with a dispersant such as walnut shell powder having a flour-like consistency, preferably with a particle size of about 80% through 325 mesh and a moisture content of about 5%.

s~
As noted, walnut shell powder is not itself a catalyst but is used to disperse the ammonium chloride and to control the viscosity of the coating composition, thus preventing its penetration into the panel board. Moreover, the walnut shell powdPr is to be distinguished from the walnut shells which can be used as aggregate whose primary function is to impart anti-skid properties to the coating.
Other dispersants can also be used such as pecan shell powder, bark powder, furafil powder, wood powder or wheat powder. These dispersants can be used in place of the walnut shell powder, in admixture therewith/ or in admixture with each other. The most important requirement of the dispersant is thak it provide a homogenous mix at a sprayable viscosity of about 300 to 1200 centipoise preferably, 400 to 500 centipoise. The amount of dispersant can vary from about 15 to about 60%, preferably from about 20 to about 40% by weight of the ammonium chloride catalyst.
For commercial applications in roo~ construction, it is necessary that the coating composition cure quickly in order to prevent "blocking" of the stacked coated panel boards after exiting from the press in the mill. Blocking occurs when stacked panels adhere together. This happens when the panels are not fully cured when they enter the stack. Cure time of about ~ to about 1~ mimltes at 350F, .
:
.
2 ~
preferably abo~t 1 minute at 350F is necessary for the composition to be suitable for coating panel board surfaces.
The ingredients o~ th~ binder must be blended in proper relative amounts to insure that the resulting coating will meet the required time-temperature cure criteria. The relative amount of each component in the anti-skid binder composition can vary as follows:
Amount, Component ~ by weiqht Urea Formaldehyde Resin (aqueous) 85 to 95 Catalyst composed of ammonium chloride and walnut shell flour 0.25 to 3 Polyvinyl Acetate Emulsion ~aqueous) 3 to 20 The anti-skid binder composition is generally applied to hot structural panel board having a temperature of about 300 to 350F in a first coating, with an intermediate aggregate coating, followed by a second coating of the binder composition.
The binder coating is generally applied by spraying at a rate of 95-120 grams per square meter per application while the shell aggregate is generally sprinkled on at a rate of 30-55 grams per square meter of panel board, at a temperature of about 15 to 30C~
'- 10 ,; . : i::.

~3~
The aggregate in the anti-skid coating composition is used to impart anti-skid properties to the panel board. The amount of aggregate in the anti-skid coating composition depends on the desired extent of anti-skid properties. This amount can vary ~rom about 20 to about 70 grams, and preferably from about 30 to about 55 grams per square meter of structural panel board surface. The aggregate is pxeferably ground to particle sizes in the range of about 20 mesh to 60 mesh. The amount of aggregate generally varies ~rom about 10 lo to 30~ by weight of the binder.
An aggregate composed of ground walnut shells can conveniently be used and can also be replaced partially or totally by rubber chips, waste plastic aggregate, or other equivalent aggregate material or combination of aggregate material that is economically feasible and that does not dull sawblades, or other cutting blades used in the installation of panel board. Thus, for example, coarse silicon would not be an acceptable aggregate material because it acts to dull sawblades used to cut the panel board.
The anti~skid binding composition is uniformly applied as a coating to the panel board surface by spraying or other equivalent means. The amount of coating applied, referred to as the "spread", can vary from about 75 to 140 grams per square meter of the structural panel board surface, 11 ~~
.
, ' ' ' :
:;. .
2~3~
preferably from about 95 to about 120 grams per square meter.
The anti-skid binding composition applied to the panel board surface is made by blending liquid urea formaldehyde resin with an aqueous emulsion of polyvinyl acetate and the ammonium chloride-walnut shell flour in suitable blending equipment. The desired mix viscosity can vary from about 400 to about 500 cPntipoise, as measured by Brookfield viscometer, Model LVF, No. 3 spindle at 60 revolutions per minute (rpm) and 25C.
It has been found that the anti-skid coating composition of the present invention fulfills the stringent requirements for a non-slip panel board coating which include:
- low cost - non-flammability - weather rèsistance - quick cure - suitability for short production runs - good adhesion In addition, despite the use of urea formaldehyde resin, the emission level of formaldehyde is not significantly raised to an undesirable level. Formaldehyde emissions on the order of about 0.10 to 0.30 mg/liter of formaldehyde can be expected, as determined by the Canadian Test Method for Emission of Formaldehyde From Wood Products Two Hour Dessicator Test - Issue #2 - 1988 (Formaldehyde Council, 350 Sparks Street, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada KlR 7S8). This is well ~- 12 ~: ,, , : `'' ~' : '' , ,.
: . :
~ ' ~
below the industry norm of about 0.7 mg/liter to 1.4 mg/liter for particleboard. High levels of formaldehyde emission become a concern when storing large quantities o~ structural panel board in enclosed spaces, such as in warehouses.
Panel board is considered dry at an average moisture content of 8~ or less at a relative humidi~y of 65+1% and a temperature of 20+3~C, in accordance with Canadian Standards Association (CSA) CAN3-0437.0-M85 for waferboard and strandboard.
