The characteristics of UF resin prepared with concentrated formaldehyde were studied in this paper. With the molar ratio F/U = 1.1, the UF resin prepared with concentrated formaldehyde showed better mechanical properties than that with formalin. The 13C-NMR and FTIR results indicated that there were more methylene groups, ether groups and urons in a UF resin system prepared with concentrated formaldehyde than those in a normal UF resin. The differential scanning calorimetry and DMA results showed that the curing temperature of UF resin with concentrated formaldehyde was lower than that of a normal UF resin. UF resin with concentrated formaldehyde showed worse thermal stability and higher thermal decomposition temperature.
