Time released curing system
View Patent ↗Curable urea formaldehyde binder compositions are provided which are useful in coated abrasive and wood engineering applications, in a time released fashion. The time released curable binder compositions include a urea formaldehyde resin and an aryl phosphite in varying concentrations. The curable binder compositions of the present invention provide desirable working times and faster curing times tinder ambient or near ambient conditions.
1. A curable binder composition, comprising:
urea formaldehyde resin;
an aryl phosphite; and
at least one catalyst selected from the group consisting of aluminum chloride ammonium chloride, and combinations thereof.
2. The curable binder of claim 1 wherein the aryl phosphite is present in an amount ranging from about 0.05% by weight to about 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin.
3. The curable binder of claim 1 wherein the urea formaldehyde resin has a urea to formaldehyde ratio ranging from about 1:1 to about 1:3.5.
4. The curable binder of claim 1 wherein the urea formaldehyde resin has a pH range of from about 4 to about 9.
5. The curable binder of claim 2 wherein the urea formaldehyde resin has a pH range of from about 4 to about 9.
6. The curable binder of claim 3 wherein the urea formaldehyde resin has a pH range of from about 4 to about 9.
7. The curable binder of claim 1 wherein the aryl phosphite is selected from the group consisting of diphenyl phosphite and triphenyl phosphite.
8. A curable binder composition, comprising:
a urea formaldehyde resin having a urea to formaldehyde ratio ranging from about 1:1 to about 1:3.5;
a 25% ammonium chloride solution in an amount ranging from about 2% to about 10% by weighs based on the total weight of the resin;
a 28% aluminum chloride solution in an amount ranging from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin;
water in an amount ranging from about 5% to about 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin; and
and aryl phosphate in an amount ranging from about 0.05% to about 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin.
9. The curable binder of claim 8 wherein the aryl phosphite is selected from the group consisting of diphenyl phosphite and triphenyl phosphite.
10. The curable binder of claim 9 wherein the aryl phosphite is diphenyl phosphite, and further wherein diphenyl phosphite is present in an amount ranging from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin.
11. The curable binder of claim 10 wherein diphenyl phosphite is present in an amount ranging from about 0.30% to about 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin.
12. The curable binder of claim 9 wherein the aryl phosphite is triphenyl phosphite, and further wherein triphenyl phosphite is present in an amount ranging from about 0.25% to about 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the resin.
13. A coated abrasive article including the cured binder of claim 1 .
14. A coated abrasive article including the cured binder of claim 8 .
15. An engineered wood article including the cured binder of claim 1 .
