Melamine Formaldehyde Resin

Melamine formaldehyde resin is a new type of melamine resin, which is made from melamine and formaldehyde by polycondensation reaction. Melamine formaldehyde resin has excellent physical and mechanical properties, high chemical resistance, heat resistance and water resistance. The water resistance and durability of its products are better than that of urea-formaldehyde resin, so it is widely used in furniture manufacturing and building decoration. Due to its good environmental friendliness, melamine formaldehyde resin is considered to be an ideal product to replace urea-formaldehyde resin.

In recent years, melamine formaldehyde resin has become an ideal new type of adhesive for wood processing due to its high heat resistance, water resistance and chemical resistance.

Compared with urea-formaldehyde resin, melamine-formaldehyde resin has the following advantages: low formaldehyde content, in line with the requirements of environmental protection, simple production process, good product quality, stable performance, easy to process and molding.

There are two main synthesizing methods for melamine formaldehyde resin: one is direct method and the other is indirect method. The direct method is to mix melamine and formaldehyde, heating to about 70°C, and then control the temperature between 80°C~90°C by adding materials, warming up, stirring, etc., and reacting for 3~4h, then the melamine formaldehyde resin can be obtained. In this process, nitrogen is used to protect the formaldehyde from being released. The indirect method is to mix melamine and formaldehyde and add them to the reactor for reaction. Since melamine and formaldehyde are both weakly alkaline substances, the H+ and OH- produced during the reaction can react with CO2, H2O and other gases in the air to generate gaseous substances, which are isolated from the air by discharging out of the kettle, and the synthesized melamine-formaldehyde resin, which can be obtained by distillation.

The bonding and gluing properties of melamine-formaldehyde resins increase with the increase of melamine content in melamine-formaldehyde resins. However, the bonding and gluing properties of melamine formaldehyde resin decrease with increasing temperature, while its gluing properties increase with increasing temperature. When the temperature rises to a certain extent, the viscosity decreases to a certain value and then starts to rise again. Within a certain range, the viscosity of melamine formaldehyde resin decreases with the increase of melamine content. Compared with urea-formaldehyde resin, its heat resistance, water resistance and chemical resistance are better than that of urea-formaldehyde resin.

Melamine formaldehyde resin is mainly used in wood processing for plywood, joinery, plywood and so on, and can be used as the substrate of impregnated film paper veneer artificial board. In addition, it can also be used for all kinds of man-made boards decorated with impregnated paper and particle boards, medium density fiberboards, oriented strand boards decorated with impregnated film paper. In the field of building decoration, melamine formaldehyde resin has excellent water resistance and durability, and can be used in all kinds of indoor decorative materials and outdoor decorative materials. Melamine formaldehyde resin can also be used in the manufacture of heat-resistant plywood, melamine paper (referred to as melamine paper) and melamine impregnated paper. It can be used as a substrate for impregnated adhesive film paper-finish artificial boards, and also as interior decorative materials such as particle board, medium density fiberboard and blockboard decorated with impregnated paper.

Melamine formaldehyde resin can be used to manufacture furniture and wood products, as well as building decorative materials such as veneer, paint, plywood, blockboard, and also artificial boards. Melamine formaldehyde resin can be used as building materials and interior decoration materials, and can also be used as food packaging materials. Because melamine formaldehyde resin has excellent physical and mechanical properties and chemical resistance, it is widely used in the manufacture of plywood and blockboard. The main advantages of melamine-formaldehyde resin are good physical and mechanical properties, good heat and water resistance, and it is commonly used in the manufacture of medium density fiberboard and particleboard.
