Abstract
Cured aminoplast resins are recycled by a process in which said resins, which may contain fillers, are treated with an aqueous sulfite, hydrogen sulfite or disulfite solution and the resulting low molecular weight degradation products are used in chemical processes. The resulting low molecular weight degradation products of cured aminoplast resins are used for coating moldings, for tanning leather and skins and for the production of moldings which contain cured aminoplast resins or consist thereof.
Claims3
A method which comprises coating moldings with a low molecular weight degradation product of cured aminoplast resins, which degradation products are obtained by treating cured aminoplast resins with an aqueous sulfite, hydrogen sulfite, or disulfite solution.
A method of tanning hides which comprises contacting the hides with a low molecular weight degradation product of cured aminoplast resins, which degradation products are obtained by treating cured aminoplast resins with an aqueous sulfite, hydrogen sulfite, or disulfite solution.
A method which comprises molding a low molecular weight degradation product of cured aminoplast resins, which degradation products are obtained by treating cured aminoplast resins with an aqueous sulfite, hydrogen sulfite, or disulfite solution.
