The invention relates to an adhesive system comprising (a) an etherified amino resin, (b) a polymer prepared from one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, (c) a curing agent, and (d) a polyvinyl alcohol and the use thereof for gluing wood based products. The invention also relates to a hardener composition for gluing systems of the amino resin type comprising, (b) a polymer prepared from one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, said polymer containing post-crosslinking groups, (c) a carboxylic acid and (d) a polyvinyl alcohol and the use thereof for formulating an adhesive system. The invention further relates to a method of application of the adhesive system or the hardener composition onto the surface to be glued.

Adhesive system

A method of gluing pieces of substrate together, by using an expandable gluing system comprising a resin component and a hardener component, wherein the hardener component is acidic, and the resin component comprises one or more gas generating substances capable of forming a gas when contacted with the hardener component, whereby the resin and the hardener components are separately applied onto the substrate. The invention also relates to a device suitable for carrying out the method.

Method for application of an expandable gluing system

A method of joining cellulosic fiber containing surfaces by means of a phenolic, phenol-resorcinol, or resorcinol resin based adhesive system, whereby at least one of the surfaces is treated with a cure promoter composition comprising a carbonate, prior to the adhesive system being applied and a cure promoter composition for phenolic resin based on resorcinol resin based adhesive system comprising a carbonate.
