Abstract Melamine-dialdehyde starch resins used for wood surface finishes have been developed. The reaction of melamine
with dialdehyde starch has been shown to occur by FTIR and MALDI ToF spectrometry, with several oligomer
species due to the reaction of the two materials being identified, and the resin thermal stability was studied by
thermogravimetric analysis. The resins were prepared by two different procedures when it was realized that dialdehyde starch is sensitive to too high a temperature for prolonged times. The melamine-dialdehyde starch resins
were applied on particleboard supports as a direct liquid surface finish and a More >
