Summary:[...]a binder system consisting of urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin and Kauranat MS 1001 enables [panel makers to achieve] an increase in process speed of 20%, or more. Since these resins are usually said to be less reactive, their use would lead to lower process speed and/or poorer mechanical properties of the panel, if used without the isocyanate component. Kauranat MS 1001 accelerates curing speed due to its UF-activating properties; and improves board properties due to its polyisocyanate content," says DrWeinkotz. Since its market launch, many board producers have been interested in testing this new technology at their facilities, together with BASF guidance for the first test runs, he says.
