Abstract (EN): Particleboard (PB), medium density fibreboard (MDF), oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood (PW), the most common products of wood panel industry, are produced by means of synthetic adhesives (resins). From the wide range of adhesives employed, amino resins as combination of formaldehyde (F) and urea (U), and melamine (M) are the most important ones, which include the most popular UF and MUF resins. This review is an introduction to the UF and MUF synthesis processes, and also addresses the key parameters for the performance of these adhesives and gives an overview about the final characteristics of PB and MDF prepared with amino resins. The characterization methods for amino resins and panels are outlined. The strategies for the optimization of resin properties and pressing conditions are discussed in terms of their good performance also under conditions of low formaldehyde emission.
