  • Patent number: 11958942
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for recycling urea-formaldehyde (UF) from a wood-based panel. In the present disclosure, the UF is depolymerized by an ultrasonic treatment, and depolymerized UF can be reused for UF manufacture and wood-based panel production. The recycled and treated UF can be repeatedly used in wood-based panel manufacture without affecting performances of the wood-based panel. UF-glued wood-based panels can be recycled, and a recycled wood-based panel raw material can replace at least 50% of a non-recycled wood-based raw material for particle board production without affecting performances of the wood-based panel.
