Patent number: 10118983Abstract: Treated aldehyde-based resins containing one or more polyamines and methods for making and same. The treated aldehyde-based resin can be or include an aldehyde-based resin and a polyamine. The polyamine can be or include one or more aromatic polyamines, one or more poly(C2-C5 alkylene) polyamines, or a mixture thereof. The treated aldehyde-based resin can include about 0.05 wt % to about 10 wt % of the polyamine, based on a solids weight of the aldehyde-based resin.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2016Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: Georgia-Pacific Chemicals LLCInventor: Richard A. Rediger
