2. Particle board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_board

   Urea melamine resins offer water resistance with more melamine offering higher resistance. It is typically used in external applications, with the coloured resin darkening the panel. To further enhance the panel properties, resorcinol resins can be mixed with phenolic resins, but that is more often used with marine plywood applications.

3. Melamine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melamine

   Melamine also is used in the fabrication of melamine polysulfonate, used as a superplasticizer for making high-resistance concrete. Sulfonated melamine formaldehyde (SMF) is a polymer used as a cement admixture to reduce the water content in concrete while increasing the fluidity and the workability of the mix during handling and pouring. It ...

4. Oriented strand board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oriented_strand_board

   The adhesive resins types used include: urea-formaldehyde (OSB type 1, nonstructural, nonwaterproof); isocyanate-based glue (or PMDI poly-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate based) in inner regions with melamine-urea-formaldehyde or phenol formaldehyde resin glues at surface (OSB type 2, structural, water resistant on face); phenol formaldehyde ...

5. Plywood - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plywood

   The sizes of the most commonly used plywood sheets are 4 by 8 feet (1,220 mm × 2,440 mm) [20] which was first used by the Portland Manufacturing Company, who developed modern veneer core plywood for the 1905 Portland World Fair. A common metric size for a sheet of plywood is 1200 × 2400 mm. 5 × 5 feet (1,500 × 1,500 mm) is also a common ...

6. Engineered wood - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_wood

   Large self-supporting wooden roof built for Expo 2000 in Hanover, Germany. Engineered wood, also called mass timber, composite wood, man-made wood, or manufactured board, includes a range of derivative wood products which are manufactured by binding or fixing the strands, particles, fibres, or veneers or boards of wood, together with adhesives, or other methods of fixation [1] to form ...

7. Lamination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamination

   Plywood is a common example of a laminate using the same material in each layer combined with an adhesive. Glued and laminated dimensional timber is used in the construction industry to make beams (glued laminated timber, or Glulam), in sizes larger and stronger than those that can be obtained from single pieces of wood. Another reason to ...

8. Laminate panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminate_panel

   Laminate panels are used instead of plywood because of their resistance to impact, weather, moisture, shattering in cold (ductility), and chemicals. Laminate panel layers (called veneers) are glued together with adjacent plies having their grain at right angles to each other for greater strength.

9. Impregnation resin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impregnation_resin

   Adding urea to MF resins has been shown to lower the amount of free formaldehyde below the legal limit and is often used for this purpose. [1] Another complication with MF resins is the low solubility of melamine in water. [16] Because of this and the free formaldehyde content, MF resins are not used as commonly in the field of wood modification.
