Urea-Formaldehyde Glue

The UF resin is used by the forest products industry in the production of particleboard (61%), medium-density fiberboard (27%), and hardwood plywood (5%), and it is used as a laminating adhesive (7%) for bonding furniture overlays to panels and for interior flush doors.

The major use of UF resins by the forest products industry is due to a number of advantages, including low cost, ease of use under a wide variety of curing conditions, low cure temperatures, water solubility, resistance to microorganisms, hardness, excellent thermal proper- ties, and lack of color of the cured resin.
