The melamine paper vs PU coated finish foil furniture paper.

 

Almost all of the people regarding the melamine as toxic material. Actually, melamine is a sort of chemical material be applied for the field with coating, laminate, binder, paint remover, textile, paper, leather tanning, flame retardant. Any chemical material can not be used for food additive for its toxicity, except the melamine.

The melamine could be used for the melamine MDF panels, decorating the furniture panel board for the melamine binder. Therefore the melamine panels are more popular be chosen by the high-end decorating of the furniture panel board market than the normal timber widely.

Then what is the melamine panels and what is melamine wood made of?

It’s not hard to explain the process to you.

First, the melamine contact paper with different colors or texture will be soaked in the melamine binder, next to drying it until it almost becomes the solidity and put the paper in solidity shape on the top of the timber with hot pressing and then it’s done, changing into the decorating board.

Whether the melamine used for bedroom solutions will cause harm to the human body?

Certainly not, the melamine usually can not be dissociated especially when it become the solidity shape. So as long as we do not eat the melamine used in the board and it certainly does not harm the human body. Meanwhile, the melamine panel with high quality must be checked strictly. Whether the melamine panel used in the furniture panel board will pollute the environment or not, it depends on the edge banding equality of the base timber used for the melamine panel. And if the edge binding is not be handed very well，leading to the formaldehyde discharge over the certification TSCA, and then it will make the air pollution rather than the melamine.

 

PU coated finish foil furniture paper

PU coated finish foil furniture paper is acclaimed at the decorative surfaces market in recent years, being used in different sorts of panels widely, such as Wood particle boar and Medium Density Fiberboard. It also is used in the producing process of Office supplies making, furniture making photo frame-making, and so on, being the necessary fresh material in the field of furniture panel boar. PU coated finish foil furniture paper is made of the plywood with a special texture, binding the unsaturated polyester resin, and the plastic film.

The difference between the melamine faced paper:

1, Raw material:

The melamine panel could directly be heated and pressed to become the melamine faced paper.

And the PU coated finish foil paper can not be made up in this way, it should be processed so many times by using other binders.

2, The Tolerance level of the high temperature:

The melamine’s physical property is a monoclinic system with hard and fragile polymeride. So it can be made up of the melamine faced paper directly, enduring the high temperature and preventing be destroyed by the damp.

About the PU coated finish foil paper, it usually is made up of the resin or the veneer, therefore it often is destroyed by the high temperature.

3, Durability:

The melamine faced paper can change into any bright and colorful texture, used for the surface of wood-based panel for the durability of melamine faced paper in its great stiffness, abrasion resistance, and thermal resistance.

As for the PU coated finish foil paper, it lacks the great durability comparing with the melamine faced paper for it is made up of three binders.

 

The correct definition of the melamine faced paper is “Melamine Paper for MDF”, and it is made up of Titanium Oxide Paper (Also be called specialty paper) by soaking it into the melamine binder and then putting it on the surface of the wood-based panel. And it owns the great durability, therefore it is generally sell out at a high price. Besides, the melamine faced paper includes coated paper which seems like be coated foil on the surface and plyboard, belonging to the thin chipboard without great durability. Generally, the former could be sold out at a high price and the later just can be sell out at a lower price.

Furniture paper on the furniture panel

After printing wood grain pattern or marble pattern on the surface of decorative base paper and impregnated with cyanamide glue, we get melamine impregnated paper – contact paper for furniture ( best poplar is wood grain contact paper ), which is then hot-pressed on the board substrate at high temperature.

The requirement for decorative furniture paper using

The furniture contact paper is usually used for the surface of particleboard and MDF,  because the contact paper for furniture has a high requirement on the surface smoothness of the substrate, otherwise, the furniture paper will be pasted on the furniture panel unevenly.

The advantages of furniture foil paper

This kind of board with furniture foil paper is usually called Melamine Faced Board after melamine press facing, with advantages of perfect surface texture, abrasion resistance, scratch resistance and good water resistance. It is suitable for production and is mainly used in the manufacture of panel furniture.

  •  Veneer Decorative Surface:

The veneer surface pasting on MDF / particleboard / multi-layer solid wood by high-temperature hot press becomes the Veneer Faced Board. Because the veneer skin can be divided into imported and domestic, precious wood and ordinary wood, the range of choices is large. Therefore, the grade of Veneer is determined according to the material type and thickness of the solid wood bark.
The surface of the Veneer Faced Board must be treated with paint. Due to the difference between solid wood bark and painting process, the same kind of solid wood bark is easy to make different effects, so the Veneer Faced Board has higher requirements on the coating and painting process.
Because of its real feel, natural and high grade, the veneer is the main decorative method of high-grade furniture at home and abroad, however, the relative material and manufacturing cost is higher.
At present, there is a popular technology veneer in China, which is favored by consumers for its real and natural texture, various patterns, no color difference and large format size.

  • Interior PVC Film

Interior pvc film is a kind of relatively thin decorative paper while it is mostly made of PVC. It is pasted on the surface of furniture with white glue and then sealed with paint.
Because it is easy to mill and shape, it is mainly used for surface finishing of MDF. At the same time, Interior PVC Film has poor wear resistance, easy to leave scratch, easy to bubble discoloration, but for its relative cost is low, it is the preferred finishing method for many finished furniture in China.

  • HPL (High pressure liminates)

HPL is a decorative surface made of siliceous material or calcareous material as the main raw material, mixed with certain proportion of fiber material, lightweight aggregate, adhesive and chemical additive and made by autoclave technology. The HPL has better high temperature resistance, wear resistance and chemical resistance and some of them can be bent after heating. HPL can not be used alone, it should be pasted on the surface of artificial board or wood. Due to the drying shrinkage of HPL, the process is not paid attention to when pasting and it is easy to open. Therefore, the requirements for pasting glue are relatively high during construction. The price of HPL with good quality is also more expensive than that of ordinary decorative panel. The thickness of fireproof board is generally 0.8 mm, 1 mm and 1.2 mm.
HPL is pasted on the base plate with glue, which is mainly used for the surface of wood parts made by hand on site. Because the amount of glue used in bonding is very large, the taste is very pungent, so it is not environmentally friendly. At the same time, due to the quality of the effect, the different sizing and pasting process, it is easy to blister and fall off.

  • Finish Foil Furniture Paper Board

PU coated finish foil furniture paper is a product widely praised in the market of decorative surfaces in recent years. It is widely used in various boards, such as particle board, density board, etc., and can also be used in the production of office furniture surface, skirting line and photo frame. So, in the furniture manufacturing industry, it is a new material that can not be ignored.

Compared with Melamine impregnated decorative paper, PU paper is more environmentally friendly. Because the melamine impregnated decorative paper is dipped in the melamine glue before use, there is much glue residue after it is pressed on the board, and the smell is heavy. But when PU paper is pasted on the board, it uses more environmental friendly white glue or wood glue, so even after it is pasted on the board, the residual smell is also small.
In addition, After impregnated, Melamine impregnated decorative paper will become very fragile, greatly improving the difficulty of transportation, and PU paper can be transported in rolls, which can reduce the risk of transportation damage.

Looking at the advantages of PU paper compared with other decorative materials, PU paper has become a new favorite in decorative surfaces market.
