Upgrading melamine–urea–formaldehyde polycondensation resins with buffering additives. I. The effect of hexamine sulfate and its limits

Abstract: Iminoamino methylene base intermediates obtained by the decomposition of hexamethylenetetramine (hexamine) stabilized by the presence of strong anions such as SO 4 2Ϫ and HSO 4 Ϫ , or hexamine sulfate, were shown to markedly improve the water and weather resistance of hardened melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) resins used as wood adhesives and of the wet internal bond strength performance of wood boards bonded with them. The effect was shown to be induced by very small amounts, between 1 and 5 wt % of this mate… Show more

“…13 C-NMR has confirmed (Kamoun et al, 2003;Pichelin et al, 1999) that in the presence of chemical species with very reactive nucleophilic sites, such as condensed flavonoid tannins, hexamine is not at all a formaldehyde-yielding compound. The very reactive imines and iminoaminomethylene intermediates initially formed in its decomposition do react with the phenolic species present without ever passing through the formation of formaldehyde (Kamoun et al, 2003;Pizzi and Tekely, 1995;Pizzi et al, 1996).…”

“…Formaldehyde-based adhesives have been widely used in the wood processing industry because of their good bonding strength, water resistance, heat resistance, and low cost (Boquillon et al 2004;Kamoun et al 2003). However, in recent years, limited petroleum resources and the pollution caused by formaldehyde-based adhesives have spurred many efforts to develop environmentally friendly adhesives from renewable materials (Huang and Li 2008;Li et al 2009b;Liu and Li 2007;Wang et al 2009;Wang et al 2008b).…”
