Abstract
ABSTRACT The improvement of melamine‐formaldehyde resin storage stability was achieved using benzoguanamine as partial replacement of melamine during synthesis (up to 15% substitution of melamine). The results showed that when benzoguanamine is added in the later stages of reaction, the resulting resins have improved storage stability (4 days or more, compared to 1 day in unmodified melamine‐formaldehyde resin). High‐pressure laminates produced with décor paper impregnated with the new developed resins showed surface properties equivalent to those obtained using commercial melamine‐formaldehyde resins. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
