Abstract

In this paper, the basic properties of UF and UMF resins for impregnation under conventional and new processes were compared, and their chemical structures were characterized by ¹³C NMR. The effects of synthetic process and melamine addition on the bonding strength and formaldehyde emission of UF and UMF resins were studied. The resin synthesized by the new process has higher linear and methylene ether bond content, relatively lower methylene content, longer curing time and storage life and lower free formaldehyde content than the conventional resin; When melamine was added at the initial stage of UF resin synthesis reaction, it did not significantly change the total amount of methylene ether and hydroxymethyl in the resin system, but the content of class I hydroxymethyl increased and the content of class II hydroxymethyl decreased. The reason may be that the added melamine and urea react not only with the remaining formaldehyde in the system, but also with the formaldehyde removed from hydroxymethyl due to dehydroxylation reaction, Hydroxymethylmelamine and monobasic substituted urea are produced. At this time, about 50% of melamine still exists in UMF resin in the form of free or low hydroxymethylate, and does not participate in the formation of the main structure of the resin. Melamine was added in the early stage of the reaction. The modified resin bonded plywood has high bonding strength and low formaldehyde emission.
