Method for lowering the formaldehyde emissions of melamine/formaldehyde polymer moldings, films or fibers by impregnating the melamine/formaldehyde polymer moldings, films or fibers with an aqueous solution of at least one formaldehyde scavenger.

Melamine formaldehyde foam with reduced formaldehyde emission

Melamine-formaldehyde foam with improved weather resistance comprising 0.1 to 8 wt.-% of at least one UV stabilizer, such as benzotriazole derivatives and piperidinol derivatives and further 1 to 3 wt.-% of at least one hydrophobicization agent, such as organo-modified siloxanes and silanes and processes for producing such melamine-formaldehyde foams with improved weather resistance.

Melamine-formaldehyde foam with improved weather resistance

A method for cleaning medical equipment by scrubbing the equipment with an open-cell melamine-formaldehyde foam comprising an antibacterial active composition, and wherein the open-cell melamine-formaldehyde foam is prepared from a melamine-formaldehyde precondensate, wherein the molar ratio melamine to formaldehyde of the melamine-formaldehyde precondensate is smaller than 0.5.

Method for cleaning medical equipment

A process for producing a melamine-formaldehyde foam by heating and foaming an aqueous mixture M using microwave radiation, said mixture M comprising at least one melamine-formal-dehyde precondensate, at least one curative, at least one surfactant, at least one blowing agent and at least one linear polymer with a number average molecular weight Min the range from 500 to 10,000 g/mol and at least two functional groups selected from OH, NHor COOH as well as a melamine-formaldehyde foam obtainable by this process and its use.

Production of melamine-formaldehyde foams

A melamine/formaldehyde foam having an open-cell foam structure, with an impregnation applied to the foam structure that comprises at least one particulate phyllosilicate surface-modified with aminosilane and at least one anionically- and/or nonionically-stabilized polyurethane dispersion.

Phyllosilicate-impregnated melamine-formaldehyde foam

The present invention relates to processes for producing melamine-formaldehyde foams, said processes comprising the steps of:

Method for producing melamine/formaldehyde foams

The present invention relates to melamine-formaldehyde foams comprising hollow microspheres wherein said hollow microspheres have a median particle diameter (D, volume averaged, Malvern, Fraunhofer diffraction) in the range from 260 &#x3bc;m to 490 &#x3bc;m, and also processes for producing these melamine-formaldehyde foams and their uses.

Melamine-formaldehyde foams comprising hollow microspheres

Melamine-formaldehyde foams comprise from 80% to 98% by weight of an inorganic filling material, wherein the % by weight are based on the total weight of inorganic filling material plus melamine-formaldehyde precondensate used for foam production.

Melamine resin foam with inorganic filling material

Open-cell foam based on a melamine-formaldehyde condensation product, a polyurethane or a polyimide, which has been modified with hydrophobins, a method of producing such foams, and the use thereof for absorbing organic liquids, as leakage and bleeding protection for liquid stores, for liquid-liquid separation and as matrix for carrying out chemical and/or biological processes.

Open-cell foam modified with hydrophobines

A multilayer foam composite element whose total thickness d comprises at least three layers composed of an open-cell foam, where at least one of the internal layers has recesses and the two outermost layers have no recesses, wherein
