:Formaldehyde, polymer with methylbenzene
Description:
Formaldehyde, polymer with methylbenzene, commonly known as phenol-formaldehyde resin, is a synthetic polymer derived from the reaction of formaldehyde with phenolic compounds. This substance is characterized by its thermosetting properties, meaning it hardens upon heating and cannot be remolded. It exhibits excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, and resistance to moisture and chemicals, making it suitable for various applications, including adhesives, coatings, and composite materials. The polymerization process results in a cross-linked structure, which contributes to its durability and rigidity. Additionally, it has low shrinkage during curing and can be formulated to achieve different levels of hardness and flexibility. However, it may release formaldehyde gas, which is a concern for indoor air quality, necessitating proper handling and ventilation during use. Overall, this polymer is valued for its versatility and performance in industrial applications, particularly in the production of molded products and as a bonding agent in wood products.
