Abstract

A veneer panel may comprise an outer surface, and a heat resistant system coupled to the outer surface comprising at least one of a thermal barrier layer or an intumescent layer.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A veneer panel, comprising:
an outer surface comprising at least one of wood and a wood grain pattern; and
a heat resistant system disposed on and coupled to the outer surface,
wherein the heat resistant system comprises a thermal barrier layer disposed on the outer surface and an intumescent layer disposed on the thermal barrier layer,
wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises a thermal barrier material comprising at least one of montmorillonite, boron nitride, graphene, silicon carbide, graphite, aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, mica powder or flake, aluminum oxide powder, titanium dioxide powder, or zirconium oxide powder, and
wherein the intumescent layer comprises an intumescent material comprising at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine.

2. The veneer panel of claim 1 , wherein the thermal barrier layer further comprises a binder comprising at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol copolyacetate, polyacrylamide, polyethylene glycol, polyethylenimine, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane, polyester, or latex, wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight thermal barrier material.

3. The veneer panel of claim 1 , wherein the intumescent layer further comprises a binder comprising at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol copolyacetate, polyacrylamide, polyethylene glycol, polyethylenimine, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane, polyester, or latex, wherein the intumescent layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight intumescent material.

4. The veneer panel of claim 1 , wherein the thermal barrier layer further comprises an intumescent material comprising at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine.

5. The veneer panel of claim 4 , wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight the thermal barrier layer and the intumescent material, collectively.

6. An interior cabin of a vehicle, comprising:
a veneer panel having an outer surface comprising at least one of wood and a wood grain pattern; and
a heat resistant system disposed on and coupled to the outer surface,
wherein the heat resistant system comprises a thermal barrier layer disposed on the outer surface and an intumescent layer disposed on the thermal barrier layer,
wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises a thermal barrier material comprising at least one of montmorillonite, boron nitride, graphene, graphite, aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, mica powder or flake, aluminum oxide powder, titanium dioxide powder, or zirconium oxide powder, and
wherein the intumescent layer comprises an intumescent material comprising at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine.

7. The interior cabin of claim 6 , wherein the thermal barrier layer further comprises a binder comprising at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol copolyacetate, polyacrylamide, polyethylene glycol, polyethylenimine, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane, polyester, or latex, wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight thermal barrier material.

8. The interior cabin of claim 6 , wherein the intumescent layer further comprises a binder comprising at least one of polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl alcohol copolyacetate, polyacrylamide, polyethylene glycol, polyethylenimine, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane, polyester, or latex, wherein the intumescent layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight intumescent material.

9. The interior cabin of claim 6 , wherein the thermal barrier layer further comprises an intumescent material comprising at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine.

10. The interior cabin of claim 9 , wherein the thermal barrier layer comprises between 50% and 99.9% by weight the thermal barrier layer and the intumescent material, collectively.

11. A method comprising:
forming a thermal barrier slurry by combining a thermal barrier material, a first binder, and a solvent, wherein the thermal barrier material comprises at least one of montmorillonite, boron nitride, graphene, graphite, aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, mica powder or flake, aluminum oxide powder, titanium dioxide powder, or zirconium oxide powder;
applying the thermal barrier to an outer surface of a veneer panel comprising at least one of wood and a wood grain pattern;
forming a system thermal barrier layer on the outer surface;
forming an intumescent slurry by combining an intumescent material, a second binder, and a second solvent, wherein the intumescent material comprises at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine;
applying the intumescent slurry to the thermal barrier layer; and
forming an intumescent layer on the thermal barrier layer.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the forming the thermal barrier slurry further comprises combining a second intumescent material with the thermal barrier material, the first binder, and the first solvent, wherein the second intumescent material comprises at least one of polyethylenimine, ammonium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, pentaerythritol, hexametaphosphate, chitosan, melamine cyanurate, melamine phosphate, a phosphonate oligomer, an amino saccharide, or an ionic liquid comprising at least one of imidazole or pyridine.
