“…However, carbon dioxide (CO2) hardened CBPB in only 5 min, bringing advantages including lower energy requirements and higher production capacity (Alpár et al 2003). Qi et al (2010) investigated the possibility of accelerating the hardening of a wood-cement mixture made of red pine and Portland cement using CO2. In the first minutes of using the CO2 injections, the carbonisation reaction started.…”

Cement wood composites (CWC) are a popular construction material. Lightweight or panel-wise wood-based buildings have a growing market in central Europe. Requirements and regulations on both the global and national level are forcing continuous developments. This paper summarizes the research achievements in improving the hygroscopic and mechanical properties and shortening the manufacturing time of CWC via pre-treatments and additives. In addition, new perspectives on enhancing its fire resistance properties by using fire retardant pre-treatments are discussed. CWC without any pre-treatment is a material within the B-s1, d0 category of fire resistance. Using fire retardants could upgrade it to the category A1 but the fire retardants should not affect the primary properties of CWC. There are a number of potential fire retardants of wood that may be used, such as phosphorus, boron, and magnesium compounds.
