Development of Cost‐Effective and Highly Transparent Melamine Formaldehyde Resin Modified With Sodium Chloride for Enhancing Glossiness and Abrasion Resistance of Melamine Impregnated Paper

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
An eco‐friendly melamine‐formaldehyde was produced by the addition of sodium chloride as a modifier. Modified MF resin improved surface gloss and abrasion resistance of decorative paper and decreased the formaldehyde emission. Curing time of the MF resin decreased with the addition of sodium chloride.
