Melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resins increase wear resistance, thus extending the
life of paper & textile.
Paper
MF resins also provide wet-strength properties to
specialty papers. Melamine-based banknotes (e.g. the euro) can be wrinkled and
folded endlessly and still retain a good appearance.
Typical paper applications include:
- Banknotes
- Wallpaper
-
Maps
Textile
Wrinkle-free clothing (e.g. men’s trousers and travel
wear) use MF-resin coated textiles.
Typical textile applications include:
- Printed textiles
-
Wrinkle-free clothing
