Manufacturing Process of PF resin

 A typical phenolic resin is made by a batch process in a jacketed, stainless steel reaction
kettle, equipped with turbine-blade or anchor type agitator and condenser.
First Stage: Novolac
 Molten phenol and formalin (37% formaldehyde) along with Oxalic acid is charged to the
kettle and heated to increase the temperature gradually.
 The heating valve is closed and the exothermic reaction is controlled by close monitoring
and started cooling at 80ºC.
 Then it is refluxed for 75 to 90 minutes at 90ºC to 92ºC and the separation of novolac
resin is checked.
 Then it is cooling upto 55ºC.
Second Stage: Resol
 To make a resole resin, an alkaline catalyst such as Caustic solution is added to the
phenol and formaldehyde.
 PVA is added at 60ºC temperature. PVA is to be mixed with alkaline formalin solution for
convenient dosing into the kettle.
 At 70 ºC it is refluxed to get flow time in B4 cup-18 seconds in hot condition.
 Caustic solution is added and refluxed at 70ºC till to get flow time in B4 cup-19 seconds
in hot condition.
 After getting the targeted flow time, it is cooled to ambient temperature.
 The final flow time at B4 cup – 30-35 seconds is checked at the time of unloading of
batch.
Manufacturing Process of MF resin
 In MF resin preparation, melamine and formaldehyde are taken in 1:2 to 1:3 molar ratio.
For water soluble MF resin this ratio is 1:6 to get Hexamethoxymethylol melamine
(HMM).
 It is manufactured by reacting melamine with formaldehyde in a jacketed reactor under
neutral or alkaline condition.
 In first step melamine reacts with formaldehyde in aqueous solution (37 % w/w) to form
methylol compounds. The reaction is carried out under slightly alkaline condition.
 Since melamine is not soluble in water at room temperature. It is necessary to heat the
mixture to about 89°C for obtaining methylol compounds.
Page | 4
 In the preparation of water soluble resins, the solution of methylol compound is further
heated under alkaline condition until the desired viscosity or solubility characteristics are
obtained from increased molecular weight.
 Liquid formaldehyde is taken in the reaction vessel and melamine powder is added
slowly with stirring. After about 15 minutes Borax is added and the mixture is heated by
steam. The temperature is controlled at about 89°C.
 After 60-80 minutes till to get white steak in measuring cylinder. Final cooling started
after getting targeted water tolerance of 1:8 in hot condition.
 The final product is cooled down to ambient temperature before unloading.
Manufacturing Process of Urea Formaldehyde Resin
 The resin is prepared by reacting urea with formaldehyde in a molar ratio of 1:2.2
generally. Urea reacts with formaldehyde under neutral or alkaline condition to yield
monomethylol urea, symmetrical dimethylol urea and trimethylol urea depending on the
ratio of the reactants.
 The resinification process for urea formaldehyde occurs in two main stages, addition or
methylolation and condensation.
 In the methylolation step, urea and formaldehyde are reacted under controlled conditions
using an alkaline catalyst and heating upto 60ºC and addition of PVA. Typically, the
methylolation step is carried out at a pH of about 8.0. The methylolation stage usually
results in a mixture of methylolated species, monomethylol urea, and dimethylol urea
and trimethylol urea.
 This mono and dimethylol urea may be regarded as the monomer of the urea-
formaldehyde resin.
 In the second stage these methylol urea undergo condensation to form low molecular
weight polymers. The rate of reaction depends on pH. Acid catalyses the reaction in
many ways:
 Formation of Methylene Bridge in amino nitrogen facilities in acidic medium.
 Methylene ether linkages also can be formed in acidic medium.
 The temperature is raised upto 88ºC to 90ºC for 90 minutes. After 90 minutes of reflux
Acetic acid solution is added and decrease the pH upto 5 to 5.5.
 The batch is refluxed at 88 ºC -90ºC till to get the water tolerance 1:5 in hot condition.
 The pH of the solution then increased upto 8 to 8.5 by caustic solution.
 Final cooling started and again urea added at temperature 60 ºC and cooling is
continued upto ambient temperature.
 Final water tolerance at a time of unloading 1:2.5 to 3 and pH 7.5 to 8.
 Poly Vinyl Alcohol will be added for dilution purpose. It will not use to manufacture resin.
It will help to let down the viscosity of resin.
Manufacturing Process of MUF Resin
 Formaldehyde is taken in a reaction vessel with Urea and water with Borax and pH is
adjusted to 9 to 9.2. The reaction is done at 60ºC temperature. Then to the mixture
melamine powder is added slowly and the mixture is then stirred well at a temperature of
80-82ºC for 90 minutes.
 The temperature is raised after 90 minutes of reflux upto 85ºC till to get white steak in
measuring cylinder.
 Then final cooling process will be initiated after getting targeted water tolerance 1:5 in
hot condition.
 At this stage the product is cooled to ambient temperature (35ºC) and targeted final
water tolerance will be 1: 2.5 to 3 during unloading of batch.
 Total Batch time is about 5 hrs and evaporation loss of about 1%.

stored at the plant can pose risk to life and property in an unlikely event of an accidental
release. Therefore, the risk assessment studies have been carried out for identification of
hazards, to compute consequence distances, to evaluate safety at the plant and to spell out
additional risk mitigation measures to enhance safety at the proposed operation and after
the proposed implementation of the plant.
For the risk reduction at the plant after implementation, the following salient suggestions are
made:
