I-BOND® resins from Huntsman are powerful, formaldehyde-free and fast-curing resins for the composite wood panel industry. They are used for bonding: Oriented Strand Board (OSB), Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF), Particleboard (PB), and Wood Fiber Insulation Board (WFI). I-BOND® resins contain no added formaldehyde (NAF) and are considered "exempt" under the requirements of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) standards. Using I-BOND® resins classifies products as both CARB I and CARB II compliant. I-BOND® resins are also compliant with the European EPF-S standard, as well as the Japanese F**** (F 4 star) formaldehyde emission standard.

MDI (methylene diphenyl diisocyanate) is one of the basic components used to make polyurethane foam. Polyurethane foam is made by reacting an isocyanate (MDI) with a polyol. Huntsman sells many differentiated grades of MDI in the Americas under the RUBINATE® name, and in Europe and Asia under the SUPRASEC® name.

The VITROX® family of high-performance polyurethane resin systems can be used in demanding structural and semi-structural composite applications in Transportation including interior load floor components, suspension components, body structure components, powertrain/wheel components, and battery enclosures. VITROX® system benefits include adjustment of the pot-life to match individual processing conditions, coupled with the ability to offer faster curing cycles along with excellent mechanical properties. VITROX® polyurethane systems offer a robust processing window for a number of manufacturing methods such as resin transfer molding, spray honeycomb and filament winding. VITROX® resin provides a longer handling window, faster curing time and superior high-temperature resistance properties compared to existing technologies.
