Uses and Benefits of Formaldehyde-free Resin
The term "formaldehyde-free" refers to the absence of formaldehyde in the binder used to construct the insulation. Interestingly, this does not rule out the possibility of formaldehyde and other volatile organic compounds (VOC) being released when the binder is put to hot glass. Interior moulded components and under-the-hood components that must tolerate high temperatures are made with formaldehyde-based resins. Exterior primers, clear coat paints, tire-cord adhesives, brake pads, and fuel system components are all made with these resins.

Uses and Benefits
Formaldehyde
is a chemical that is used to make hundreds of products that help people live
better lives. Formaldehyde is found in very little, if any, of the end items
that customer use.
Building and Construction
Composite
and engineered wood items, such as cabinetry, countertops, mouldings,
furniture, shelves, stair systems, flooring, wall sheathing, support beams and
trusses, and many other household furnishings and structures, are made with
formaldehyde-based resins. Formaldehyde-based glues are excellent bonding
agents, giving high-quality performance while remaining cost-effective.
Formaldehyde-based
resins are used in a wide range of panel and board products in the wood
products industry, allowing for the sustainable use of forestry resources and
the reduction of waste. Composite wood panels, for example, are often created
from recovered wood waste that would otherwise be burned or thrown away in a
landfill.
Health Care Applications
The use of
formaldehyde in the production of vaccinations, anti-infective medications, and
hard-gel capsules has a long history of safety. Formaldehyde, for example, is
used to inactivate viruses so that they do not cause disease, such as the
influenza virus in the flu vaccination.
Personal Care and Consumer Products
Many
personal care (1) and consumer goods require formaldehyde-based chemistry to be
manufactured. These items may contain formaldehyde-releasing chemicals, which
work as a preservative by killing germs and preventing bacteria and other
diseases from growing, thereby increasing the shelf life of the product.
Automobiles
Vehicles
with formaldehyde technology are lighter and more energy efficient. Interior
moulded components and under-the-hood components that must tolerate high
temperatures are made with formaldehyde-based resins.
