Marking of product made of Melamine. Melamine / ˈ m ɛ l ə m iː n / ⓘ is an organic compound with the formula C 3 H 6 N 6. This white solid is a trimer of cyanamide, with a 1,3,5-triazine skeleton. Like cyanamide, it contains 66% nitrogen by mass, and its derivatives have fire-retardant properties due to its release of nitrogen gas when ...
In 1927, Formica Insulation Company obtained a patent on an opaque barrier sheet that allowed the use of rotogravure printing to make wood-grained or marble-surfaced laminate, the first of many innovations that were to associate the name "Formica" with decorative interior products. In 1938, melamine thermosetting resin was developed by American ...
Melamine reacting with formaldehyde to form hexamethylolmelamine. Melamine formaldehyde resins (MF) are a class of impregnation resins for wood modification that are made by reacting melamine with formaldehyde in a condensation of these two monomers. Melamine formaldehyde resins are unique because they have heat and fire-resistant properties ...
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 ...
Laminate flooring simulates wood (or sometimes stone) with a photographic appliqué layer under a clear protective layer. The inner core layer is usually composed of melamine resin and fiber board materials. [1] There is a European Standard No. EN 13329:2000 specifying laminate floor covering requirements and testing methods.
Particleboard with veneer. Particle board, also known as particleboard or chipboard, is an engineered wood product, belonging to the wood-based panels, manufactured from wood chips and a synthetic, mostly formaldehyde based resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed under a hot press, batch- or continuous- type, and produced.

A "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser" brand sponge, made from melamine foam. Melamine foam is a foam-like material consisting of a melamine-formaldehyde condensate. It is the active component of a number of abrasive cleaner sponges, notably the Magic Eraser. It is also used as thermal insulation and as a soundproofing material.
Materials other than wood have been used to produce products similar to OSB. Oriented structural straw board is an engineered board made by splitting straw and formed by adding P-MDI adhesives and then hot compressing layers of straw in specific orientations. [7] Strand board can also be made from bagasse.
