Abstract: A one-step, in-situ, process for producing a high solids content emulsion or dispersion of partially or totally crosslinked urea formaldehyde (UF), melamine formaldehyde (MF), or melamine urea formaldehyde (MUF) resin droplets or particles, by forming a reaction mixture of (i) aqueous formaldehyde (formalin), (ii) at least one water-soluble protective colloid, (iii) water and (iv) optionally a surfactant, and mixing the reaction mixture in a reaction vessel; optionally adjusting the initial pH of the reaction mixture according to a desired value as needed; adding (i) urea or substituted urea, (ii) melamine or substituted melamine, or (iii) a mixture thereof, to the reaction mixture; and heating the reaction mixture to a temperature at which condensation takes place between the (i) urea or substituted urea, (ii) the melamine or substituted melamine, or (iii) the mixture thereof, and the formaldehyde to form a urea formaldehyde, melamine formaldehyde or melamine urea formaldehyde resin, and holding the reaction
