Facts on Formaldehyde in relation to Foamed Aminoplastics
Source abstract
Abstract
The author can look back on some forty years’ industrial experience in the handling and use of the chemical – formaldehyde – as well as the products based on it. He was able to follow in detail, the increasing depth in the knowledge about its toxicology. Based on this information and his practical experience, an attempt is made to answer questions, frequently posed, about a possible danger to health from this chemical.
