Amino resins

Amino resins are synthetic chemicals made from compounds containing nitrogen, such as formaldehyde and amino groups. They are commonly used as adhesives or binding agents in manufacturing, especially in woodworking to produce furniture, plywood, and particleboard. These resins improve the strength, durability, and water resistance of the products by creating strong, durable bonds between wood particles or fibers. Once cured, amino resins form stable, heat-resistant, and hard surfaces, making them essential in various industrial applications. Despite their versatility, they must be handled carefully due to potential formaldehyde emissions during processing.
