In order to develop wood products with acceptable fire resistance and decay resistance, Southern Pine samples were treated with a boron-containing wood preservative ( DBM) which was a mixture of disodium octoborate tetrahydrate, boric acid, magnesium sulfate and dipropylene glycol methyl ether. Results indicated that the boron-based preservative not only improved the fire resistance,decay resistance,and reduced its leachibility,but also decreased the volume shrinkage and water absorption of treated samples.
