Phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins are thermosetting adhesives that form strong bonds and have good resistance to high temperatures. Thermoset resins require heat or heat and pressure to cure and to form a secure bond. Phenolic or phenol formaldehyde, urea formaldehyde, and melamine resin adhesives are all considered types of phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins.

Phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins include phenolic resin adhesives which are made from chemicals of both the phenol group and formaldehyde and are generally the most durable resins. Phenolic and formaldehyde resins have been around a long time and are fairly low in cost. Phenolic resins are available in liquid, powder, and film form. Phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins also include special phenolic resins that harden at moderate temperatures when mixed with suitable accelerators. Phenol-formaldehyde, resorcinol-formaldehyde, resol, and novalac resins are all types of phenol formaldehyde resin. Formaldehyde resin is commonly used in the manufacturing of coated abrasives or sanding media or can also be used to make insulation.

Other phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins include urea resin adhesives which are made from urea, formaldehyde, and catalysts or hardeners. Urea formaldehyde resins can harden rapidly and at moderate temperature, but they do not generally possess the properties of phenolics. Phenolic, melamine, and formaldehyde resins also include melamine resins, which are made through a reaction of dicyandiamide with formaldehyde. Most of the resins in this group have excellent dielectric properties. Melamines have a lower molecular weight and are water-soluble, making them useful for laminating or impregnating objects made of other compounds, including paper or board. Melamine resin-impregnated composites are frequently used in furniture and flooring. Melamine resins can also be used to make plastics.
