Urea-aminotriazine

In pyrolysis employing molten tin, a flow of the urea on the surface is eventually converted to a sheet of cmde CA 15—20 mm thick. After reaching the edge of the tin bath, the moving sheet falls into a mill. The resultant powdered cmde CA (contaminated with tin metal) is subjected to acid hydrolysis to convert aminotriazines (30—40%) to CA. Tin losses can amount to 15 kg/1 product. 

U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,407,154 [16] and 3,407,155 [17] describe thermosetting urea-formaldehyde and aminoplast resinous molding composition comprising fusible reactive urea-formaldehyde and aminotriazine-formaldehyde resin, respectively, and purihed a-cellulose hbers (14-25% by weight) as a hller.
