Abstract
A binder used for manufacturing a composite product is prepared by combining i) Maillard reactants selected from: reducing sugar reactant(s) and nitrogen-containing reactant(s); curable reaction product(s) of reducing sugar reactant(s) and nitrogen-containing reactant(s); and combinations thereof; and ii) a resin; reactants of a resin; and combinations thereof.
Claims13
A method of manufacturing a composite product comprising:
- applying a binder composition, notably in the form of an aqueous solution, to non or loosely assembled matter to provide resinated matter, wherein the binder composition consists of a binder composition prepared by combining i) Maillard reactants selected from:
- reducing sugar reactant(s) and nitrogen-containing reactant(s);
- curable reaction product(s) of reducing sugar reactant(s) and nitrogen-containing reactant(s);
- and combinations thereof;
- and ii) a resin;
- reactants of a resin;
- and combinations thereof;
- arranging the resinated matter to provide loosely arranged resinated matter;
- and
- subjecting the loosely arranged resinated matter to heat and/or pressure to cure the binder composition and to form the composite product.
