Urea-formaldehyde (UF), also known as urea-methanal, so named for its common synthesis pathway and overall structure, [1] is a nontransparent thermosetting resin or polymer. It is produced from urea and formaldehyde. These resins are used in adhesives, plywood, particle board, medium-density fibreboard (MDF), and molded objects.

The basic reaction of urea and formaldehyde to create a urea-formaldehyde resin, followed by the condensation [12] Urea-formaldehyde resins (UF) are a class of impregnation resins for wood modification made by reacting urea with formaldehyde. This resin can be polymerized after impregnation into the wood substrate by oven-curing.
Urea. Although urea has a number of industrial uses, these are dwarfed by the scale of its use as a nitrogen fertilizer.Urea has the highest nitrogen content (46 wt-%) of all the recognized solid nitrogen fertilizer materials and, from the early 1950s onwards, its use has continually increased, progressively displacing both ammonium sulphate, which was formerly the dominant product, and a ...
Urea plant using ammonium carbamate briquettes, Fixed Nitrogen Research Laboratory, ca. 1930 Carl Bosch, 1927. The Bosch–Meiser process is an industrial process, which was patented in 1922 [1] and named after its discoverers, the German chemists Carl Bosch and Wilhelm Meiser [2] for the large-scale manufacturing of urea, a valuable nitrogenous chemical.
Sensitization to formaldehyde has been decreasing since 1980 due in part to the replacement of formaldehyde by these formaldehyde releasers. [2] As of 2009, frequency of sensitization to formaldehyde is stable at 2–3% in Europe. [2] It might be as high as 9% in the USA. [2] [13]
