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 ...

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.

to evaluate the effect of slow release fertilizer and humic acid on quality of new guinea impatiens (impatiens hawkeri), an experiment established in complete random design with 15 treatments and three replications. treatments were slow release fertilizer (12-11-18-2.7mgo-8s) in five levels (0, 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6 kg/m3) and humic acid in three levels (0, 2 and 4 kg/m3) that mixed with medium cul...

Sesame cake and meal, byproducts of the sesame oil process industry mainly used as feed fertilizer, are often not optimally utilized wasted when material could be a high-quality protein source. This research primarily emphasizes preparation protein-based adhesive with urea glyoxal modification to use wood adhesive. The performance characterization modified (USP GUSP, respectively) were measured...

Based on various characteristics of zeolite, its utilization in the manufacture of fertilizers with slow-release properties is possible. The objectives of this study are to characterize and utilized nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (NPK) slow release fertilizer by using natural zeolite in Indonesia. In this research, zeolite was utilized as a mixture of Slow Release Fertilizer (SRF). Effect o...

A study was conducted at Bunda College during the 2003/04 crop season to assess the effect of fertilizer application practices on performance of maize with emphasis on improving the efficiency of using urea as a top dressing fertilizer The treatments were laid out as a split-plot in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with maize varieties as main plots and fertilizer application practices...
