Furfural, as an organic compound derived from biomass materials, was used to partially
substitute for formaldehyde in the synthesis of UF resin. Urea-formaldehyde-furfural co …

Furfuryl alcohol, a biosourced material, is widely used in the foundry industry, and also as
additive or modifier in the adhesives field. However, furanic resins have not been reported …

The formaldehyde to urea molar ratio (F/U) plays an important role on the properties of urea
formaldehyde (UF) resins and of the medium density fiber board (MDFs) bonded with them …

Considering the importance of urea–formaldehyde (UF) resins in the wood industry, this
work reports on a new bio-based modification of UF resins. The use of 5-hydroxymethyl …

Urea–formaldehyde (UF) resins are the most important type of adhesive for the preparation
of wood-based panels, due to its good performance and the low price. However, because of …

By using polycondensation→ hydroxymethylation strategy, a novel wood adhesive, namely
polyurea–formaldehyde resin (PolyUF) was designed and successfully synthesized …

Urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin is one of the most widely used adhesives in wood-based
composites. The major concerns of the resin utilization are free formaldehyde release and …

This study reports the performance of urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins prepared at two
different low formaldehyde/urea (F/U) mole ratios with different numbers of urea addition …

To address formaldehyde release problem, low-molar-ratio UF resin has become the
industry's major adhesive for bonding wood-based panels. Unfortunately, its drawbacks of …

In this study, the effect of the molecular weight (MW) of urea–formaldehyde (UF) resins on
their cure kinetics, interphase, penetration into wood, and adhesion strength was evaluated …
