Resorcinol-Formaldehyde (R-F) Resin

Structure formation in urea-formaldehyde resin synthesis

The structure formation in acid promoted polycondensation and particularly in alkaline post-treatment with urea was studied by 13C NMR spectroscopy in the three-step synthesis of ureaformaldehyde resins. Trishydroxymethyl urea was identified as the constituent of the mixture of hydroxylmethylated urea derivatives obtained in alkaline conditions. The formation of methylenes linked to secondary o...

Resorcinol-formaldehyde resin "Russian Red" endodontic therapy.

Resorcinol-formaldehyde resin is a material used in endodontic therapy in many foreign countries. With immigration to the United States increasing, American dentists need to become familiar with resorcinol-formaldehyde therapy. It contains two potentially toxic components, formaldehyde (liquid) and resorcinol (powder). Zinc oxide or barium sulfate may be used for radiopacity. When 10% sodium hy...

Melamine-modified urea formaldehyde resin for bonding particleboards

For the development of a cost-effective melamine-modified urea formaldehyde resin (MUF), the study evaluated the effects of reaction pH and melamine content on resin properties and bond performance of the MUF resin adhesive systems. Eight resins, each with three replicates, were prepared in a factorial experiment that included two formulation variables: two reaction pHs (i.e., 4.5 and 8.0) and ...
