Melamine plastic, also known as melamine formaldehyde, is a hard, thermosetting plastic material made from melamine and formaldehyde. Melamine is often used in kitchen utensils and plates and became very popular in the late 1950's and 60's.
Melamine plastic or melamine formaldehyde is a hard, thermoset plastic material made from melamine and formaldehyde by polymerization. There are many types, varying from very slow to very fast curing. It was initially discovered by William F. Talbot, who applied to patent it on December 12, 1936.
Melamine plastic is commonly used to make inexpensive plates, bowls, cups, and other diningware. Unlike most other plastics it absorbs microwaves and if used in a microwave cooker such diningware can scorch or even catch fire.
Melamine plastic in a finely powdered form was once found as an adulterant in some pet foods manufactured in China. Several pets eating this food were poisoned by the melamine and died before the adulterated food was found and further shipments to the US banned. The manufacturers had added the melamine adulterant to trick the tests for protein content to read higher than normal, to avoid having to use higher protein ingredients which cost more than the melamine.
All forms of melamine plastics are thermoset plastics.
Yes melamine-formaldehyde was one of the first polymers.
yes
The plastic that is used for preparing a television cabinet is melamine resin. It is a thermoplastic material created through the polymerization of melamine and formaldehyde.
Melamine is an inexpensive rugged thermoset plastic that is readily adaptable to a wide variety of uses.
Melamine formaldehyde is a firm setting agent plastic agent. Melamine is the largest constituent of high-pressure laminates like Formica. Melamine-resin tile can also be used as whiteboards. Since it is a hardening agent it is not used for making things larger or changing its size.
The answer is MELAMINE The answer is MELAMINE
melamine(2,4,6-Triamino-1,3,5-triazine) & formaldehyde
To the best of my knowledge no Corelle dishware is made of melamine. Melamine is a kind of plastic. Corelle dishes are made of a kind of glass.
because melamine is fire resistant
it is a thermo setting plastic if it is what you asked
Melamine is a strong, lightweight plastic-like material. It's dishwasher safe and scratch-resistant. However, Melamine should not be used in the microwave.

Melamine is a hard substance used to give surface hardness to some paints and also for laminating into countertop material. Polythene is a softer plastic used for plastic sheet, etc.
Melamine plastic is used to make floor tiles, kitchenware , and fabric which resist fire.
I believe melmac were the dishes from the 40's-70's mad from melamine. they were also our lunch room plates.
