Soak the decorative paper in a melamine solution and then press it on with heat and pressure. Therefore, moisture-proof boards for furniture are generally called melamine moisture-proof boards. Melamine-formaldehyde resin is a solution containing very low formaldehyde and is environmentally friendly. Not only will it not cause secondary pollution, but it will also reduce the release of the base material inside. This processing method has been recognized by everyone, and most of them are doing it this way. However, the surface treatment is also divided into good and bad, because the price of melamine-formaldehyde resin solution is almost 10 times that of other glues. Many people mix urea-formaldehyde glue into the solution, which is not environmentally friendly, so the boards are also divided into full melamine and formaldehyde glue. Semi-polymer board is difficult to recognize for non-professionals, mainly based on the surface.
