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...

Plastics and glues are common causes of occupational dermatoses, but only few reports have dealt with patch-test reactions caused by plastic and glue allergens. Patients exposed to plastics and remitted to an occupational dermatology clinic, were patch-tested with 50-53 plastic and glue allergens during a 6-year period. Conventional patch-test techniques were used. The most common causes of all...

P-tert-butylphenol-formaldehyde resin is a widely used adhesive chemical. It is used in a broad range of products and should be kept in mind when encountering children with suspected allergic contact dermatitis. We present a girl who developed contact allergy to p-tert-butylphenol-formaldehyde resin used in orthopedic braces.

In this study, bio-oil from fast pyrolysis of renewable biomass was added by the mass of phenol to synthesize bio-oil phenol formaldehyde (BPF) resins, which were used to fabricate glass fiber (GF) reinforced BPF resin (GF/BPF) composites. The properties of the BPF resin and the GF/BPF composites prepared were tested. The functional groups and thermal property of BPF resin were thoroughly inves...

The previous study on low mole ratio urea-formaldehyde (UF) and ureamelamine–formaldehyde (UMF) resins synthesized in the typical way as particleboard binders was repeated with the inclusion of a strong acidic reaction step at a mole ratio of 2.7 in the beginning of the resin synthesis procedure. The resulting UF and UMF resins showed longer storageand pot-lives, longer gel times, and the parti...

salicylic acid-formaldehyde-m-cresol (sfm) terpolymer had been synthesized in dmf media by conventional method. the resulting resin had been characterized by ftir spectra, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. the morphology of sfm resin had been studied by sem and optical photograph. various parameters like rate of equilibration, effect of ph on ion exchange capacity and effect of concentr...

Wood liquefaction was conducted at a 2/1 phenol/wood ratio in two different reactors: (1) an atmospheric three-necked flask reactor and (2) a sealed Parr reactor. The liquefied wood mixture (liquefied wood, unreacted phenol, and wood residue) was further condensed with formaldehyde under acidic conditions to synthesize two novolac-type liquefied wood/phenol/formaldehyde (LWPF) resins: LWPF1 (th...
