Abstract

Wood adhesive system based on hyperbranched polyglycerol cross-linked with hexamethoxymethyl melamines was described. The obtained results showed that it was possible to develop polyglycerol-based interior-grade adhesive exhibiting dry shear strengths of the joints exceeding that of the solid wood. Gelling times of the studied formulations were comparable to those of the industrial thermosetting systems (60–80 s at 100 °C). It was also found that wet shear strengths depended on functionality and F/Me molar ratio in the cross-linking resin.
