  2. Urea-formaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urea-formaldehyde

    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.

  3. Bosch-Meiser process - Wikipedia

    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.

  4. Impregnation resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impregnation_resin

    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.

  6. Sand casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_casting

    The two common types used are urea formaldehyde (UF) and phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins. PF resins have a higher heat resistance than UF resins and cost less. There are also cold-set resins, which use a catalyst instead of a heat to cure the binder. Resin binders are quite popular because different properties can be achieved by mixing with ...

  7. Wood glue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_glue

    The energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production of Urea-formaldehyde are lower than those of Phenol formaldehyde adhesives. But Urea-formaldehyde adhesive is judged to have a nearly 50% higher life cycle impact than Phenol formaldehyde mainly because of acid based emmissions during its production process. [15 ...

  8. Aerolite (adhesive) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerolite_(adhesive)

    The following year de Bruyne suggested that synthetic adhesives might play a part in aircraft production and engaged Cambridge University chemist R.E. Clark to investigate new adhesives for aircraft applications. The result was Aerolite, a urea-formaldehyde adhesive which unlike conventional glues of the time, resisted water and micro-organisms.

  9. Dimethylol ethylene urea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethylol_ethylene_urea

    The production of DMEU is through the condensation of formaldehyde with ethylene urea: [9] 2CH 2 O + (C 2 H 4 N 2 H 2)CO → (C 2 H 2 N 2 (CH 2 OH) 2)CO. The reaction proceeds around 200 °C (392 °F) but this temperature can be brought down to around 70 °C (158 °F) in the presence of an acid catalyst. [10]
