Claims
- 1. A resinous solution comprising the reaction product of (a) about 65-80 moles of formaldehyde, (b) about 20-30 moles of urea, and (c) about 15-25 moles of phosphoric acid, said solution being formed by initial mixing of said formaldehyde and said urea followed by the addition of said phosphoric acid, whereby upon addition of said phosphoric acid, an exothermic reaction occurs leading to a substantially immediate and complete exothermic reaction to form a viscous, syrupy, water-white, aqueous resinous solution, the solution being a stable solution having a good shelf life and forming flexible, waterproof and non-burning films.
- 2. A solution according to claim 1 wherein 3-7 moles of triethanolamine are mixed with the formaldehyde prior to addition of the other reactants.
- 3. A solution according to claim 1 wherein the formaldehyde is a 37% aqueous solution.
- 4. A solution according to claim 1 wherein the phosphoric acid is 85% aqueous phosphoric acid.
- 5. A solution according to claim 1 wherein the reaction product comprises the reaction of 73 moles formaldehyde, 24 moles urea and 18 moles phosphoric acid.
- 6. A solution according to claim 5 which includes 4 moles triethanolamine.
- 7. A solution according to claim 1 wherein a metal salt selected from the group consisting of the oxides, hydroxides, sulfates, nitrates, phosphates and chlorides of aluminum, zinc, tin and antimony, is added to the phosphoric acid prior to mixing with the formaldehyde and urea.
- 8. A solution according to claim 1 wherein ammonium hydroxide is added to the urea and formaldehyde solution prior to mixing with the phosphoric acid.
- 9. A solution according to claim 1 wherein lactic acid is added to the final solution.
