The only tannins in the world currently being commercially exploited for adhesive applications are those isolated by hot- (or cold-) water extraction of Acacia meamsii bark in the province of Natal, South Africa. Approximately 100,000 tons of mimosa tannin were being produced annually as reported in 1980, the latest year for which production figures were available (41)- Of this amount, about 10,000 tons were used in adhesive applications mainly in South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. While this number is not large in light of the 300,000 to 400,000 tons of phenol used annually in resins, it does provide evidence that bark tannins can be economically used for adhesives. This application is facilitated by the relatively high cost of phenol and resorcinol in...
