Abstract

Novel stable-in-use aminoplast resin binder solutions comprising aqueous solutions of predominantly a urea-formaldehyde resin having a formaldehyde to urea ratio of less than 2.0, from about 40 to 56% by weight dissolved ammonium polyphosphate reacted with 5 to 12.5 percent by weight formaldehyde and not more than 30% by weight water. Preferred aminoplast resin binder solutions also contain a methylolated melamine-formaldehyde resin. A novel process for the production of the stable aminoplast resin binder solutions containing high percentages of ammonium polyphosphates and suitable for production of fire-retardant particle board is disclosed.
