International Classification:

C09J 161/12

US Classification:

156 626, 525504, 525503

Abstract:

Adhesive compositions having a reduced cure time and methods for making and using same are provided. In at least one specific embodiment, the adhesive composition can include a mixture of one or more phenolic-aldehyde resins and one or more cure accelerants. The one or more cure accelerants can be selected from the group consisting of: ammonia, ammonium hydroxide, one or more primary amines, one or more secondary amines, one or more tertiary amines, one or more alkanolamines, one or more aromatic amines, one or more polyamines, one or more amides, one or more polyamides, one or more compounds containing at least one amine functional group and at least one sulfur functional group, and any mixture thereof. In one or more embodiments, the adhesive composition can also include one or more hardeners.

International Classification:

B29C 31/02
C09D 161/06

US Classification:

264 401, 366 762

Abstract:

Methods and systems for preparing a binder system are provided. The method can include combining a first resin and a second resin to produce a first binder system. The first binder system can be applied to a first plurality of lignocellulose substrates and at least partially cured to produce a first composite product. The method can also include monitoring one or more process variables. The one or more monitored process variables can be evaluated. An amount of the first resin, the second resin, or both combined with one another can be adjusted in response to the evaluation of the one or more monitored process variables to produce a second binder system.
