The pressure-vacuum method was used for impregnation process. Combustion test was performed according to the procedure of ASTM-E 69 standards. According to the test results zinc chloride was found to be the most successful fire retardant chemical in LVL with PF adhesive. Since zinc chloride diminishes combustion, LVL produced from mulberry with PF adhesive and impregnated with zinc chloride can be advised to be used as a fire resistant building material where required.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesslaminated veneer lumbers (LVL)PVAcphenol-formaldehydefire retardantArticle11329955WOS:000280247000011Q3
