Polymate-777A / 777P

Formaldehyde Scavengers

India’s first and only 100%-efficient nano-particle formaldehyde scavengers, for both amino and phenolic resins.

The First and Only 100% Efficient Formaldehyde Scavenger Manufactured in India

Free formaldehyde is the emission that panel regulations target hardest, and meeting E0 or E1 without hurting bond performance is one of the industry’s persistent challenges. Patina is the only Indian manufacturer of high-efficiency nano-particle scavengers built for the job — offered in two grades so the chemistry matches the resin.

Polymate-777A is optimised for amino systems (UF, MUF) and 777P for high-durability phenolic (PF) systems. Both work at the nano scale to lock up free formaldehyde, permanently lowering off-gassing to levels that meet global E0 / E1 standards across plywood, particle board and MDF.

Crucially, they do it at a negligible cost — from roughly Rs. 0.05–0.06 per glue line for 777A — so compliance becomes a routine line item rather than a margin problem.

Why it matters

  • Reaches E0 / E1 certification for plywood, MDF & particle board
  • 777A for amino resins, 777P for phenolic resins
  • Nominal cost — from just Rs. 0.05–0.06 per glue line

Grades in this range

Polymate-777A

For Amino Resins

Physical properties
Light-yellow fine powder.
Compatibility
Optimised for seamless use within all amino resin systems (UF, MUF).
Emission control
Lowers aggregate formaldehyde emissions so manufacturers comfortably achieve E0 or E1 levels for plywood, particle board and MDF.
Cost-effectiveness
Negligible impact on production budgets — a nominal cost addition of merely Rs. 0.05 to Rs. 0.06 per glue line.
Polymate-777P

For Phenolic Resins

Physical properties
Reddish-brown powder.
Compatibility
Engineered exclusively for high-durability phenolic resins (PF systems).
Emission control
Permanently reduces formaldehyde off-gassing to levels that strictly meet global E0 or E1 regulatory standards.
Application versatility
Compatible with exterior-grade plywood, particle board and heavy-duty MDF.
Economic value
Balances the upfront additive cost against the long-term benefit of producing premium, eco-compliant low-emission panels.
