Tackling Formaldehyde and Alternatives
2008-04-13 06:12:00 The March/April 2008 Issue of Building Products has a good summary for clarifying the use of formaldehyde in building products. There is no web link, unfortunately, so I will copy the article here.Most structural engineered wood is glued together with binders that contain phenol formaldehyde, a product with minimal off gassing. The binders used for some non-structural, interior grade products, like particleboard, MDF, and hardwood plywood, however, can contain urea formaldehyde, a volatile compound that is classified as a carcinogen. Urea formaldehyde is also linked to respiratory problems, eye and nose irritation, and allergic reactions. The telltale sign of its presence: the sweet smell that most kitchen and bathroom cabinets emit. New regulations in California will restrict urea formaldehyde emissions, but do not deal with phenol formaldehyde. In response, manufacturers are developing formaldehyde-free binders, using products like polyurethane and even soy. Last summer, the Cal...

Formaldehyde ? Another Cancer Concern Related to Smoking
2007-01-12 00:45:31 Two more alarming facts to consider if you are a smoker, as if you didn?t already have a myriad of reasons to kick the habit: firstly- there is formaldehyde present in cigarette smoke and secondly ? formaldehyde causes cancer in humans. This is another way that this nasty habit can not only harm to you or kill you, but do harm to or kill your loved ones.
