Melamine formaldehyde

Melamine formaldehyde is a durable, heat-resistant plastic created by combining melamine and formaldehyde chemicals. It forms a hard, strong resin widely used in manufacturing because it resists scratches, stains, and heat. Common applications include laminates, kitchenware, and tableware, due to its strength and ease of coloring or finishing. When heated during production, these chemicals chemically bond, resulting in a dense, stable material that maintains its shape and properties over time. However, ingestion of melamine can be hazardous, so it’s important that products made from this material comply with safety standards.
