A. Plywood Adhesives
The UF adhesives for plywood generally contain less than 2 mole of formaldehyde per mole of urea, and most of them are condensed to a slightly viscous, hydrophilic stage and are quite soluble in water. The degree of polymerization, and hence the viscosity under comparable conditions of UF resins for plywood is generally higher than those of UF resins for particleboard.
