Lignin-urea-formaldehyde resin adhesive was synthesized with alkali lignin from gramineae waste pulping liquor. Alkali lignin was purified and hydroxymethylated with HCHO and then crosslinked with urea-formaldehyde resin, polyvinyl alcohol and melamine. Results showed that lignin content in purified alkali lignin was 86.91%, both binding strength and free HCHO content of urea-formaldehyde resin synthesized from hydroxymethylated lignin reached the optimum value. The proper lignin amount for preparing resin was 30%, and the binding strength at this condition was 4.56MPa, and free formaldehyde content was 0.049%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
