partial replacement of formaldehyde with furfural in the urea-formaldehyde resin on the formaldehydeemission, physical and mechanical properties of particleboard was investigated. the modulus ofrupture (mor), modulus of elasticity (moe), internal bond (ib), water absorption (wa), thicknessswelling (ts) and formaldehyde emission (fe) of poplar particleboards made with the modifiedresins were mea...

Approximately 1 million metric tons of urea-formal-dehyde resin are produced annually. More than 70% of this urea-formaldehyde resin is used by the forest products in-*This information was written and prepared by a U.S. Government employee on official time and it is, therefore, in the public domain and not subject to copyright.

This study reports the results of a study aimed at reducing the free formaldehyde content of Phenolformaldehyde resin by using Urea as means for forming a reversible adduct with formaldehyde. The highly volatile formaldehyde has an unpleasant odour and irritates the eyes and nasal passages. The free formaldehyde content (FFC) of the modified resol resin was determined by titration method. With ...

there are adequate sources for wood adhesives, but scarcity of oil resources can affect the cost and future availability of oil based resins. for avoiding of this process, seeking for feasibility of replacement of these oil feedstocks is necessary. in present work, thermal behavior of urea formaldehyde resin modified by furfural was investigated. the thermo-gravimetry was used for this purpose,...

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 ...

MO XF, FAN DB, QIN TF & CHU FX. 2015. Curing characteristics and adhesion performance of phenol–formaldehyde resins with composite additives. The curing characteristics of cure-accelerated phenol–formaldehyde resins with composite additives were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry analysis and gelation test. The pot lives and adhesion performances of phenol–formaldehyde resins wer...
