Abstract
A mixture of zinc or copper salts of primary and/or secondary saturated acyclic carboxylic acids with zinc or copper salts of a tertiary saturated acyclic carboxylic acid has been found to be of value as a preservative for wood or many other similar degradable organic materials. The mixture can be prepared simply by mixing the salts or by reacting zinc or copper or a suitable zinc or copper compound with a mixture of the appropriate acids.
