Melamine-formaldehyde reaction products and process of preparing the same

Claim 1

A PROCESS COMPRISING DISSOLVING MELAMINE IN A SUBSTANTIALLY NON-ACHOHOLIC AQUEOUS SOLUTION OF MELAMINE, AT A MOL RATIO OF AT LEAST 6.5:1 FORMALDEHYDE TO MELADEHYDE RESPECTIVELY, AT A PH BETWEEN 7 AND 11 AND CORRESPONDINGLY AT A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN ABOUT 75*C. AND 35*C. WITH CONSISTANT STIRRING UNTIL THE SOLUTION CLEARS, WHILE ADJUSTING THE WATER CONTENT TO A MINIMUM OF 60% BY WEIGHT OF THE TOTAL CHANGE MAINTAINING THE PH BETWEEN 7 AND 11 AND CORRESPONDINGLY MAINTAINING THE TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 75*C. AND 35*C. WHILE STIRRING THE REACTION MIXTURE, WHILE THE REACTION CONTINUES, WITH MOVEMENT THROUGH THE REACTION MEDIUM IN AN OTHERWISE UNAGITATED DISPERSION, RAISING THE PH TO BETWEEN 8 AND 11 UOPN EXOTHERM SUBSIDENCE, IN ORDER TO INHABIT TEMPERATURE DECLINE, UNTIL THE REACTION PRODUCT HAS SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETLY PRECUPITATED OUT OF SOLUTION AND SEPARATING THE SILIDS FROM THE SUPERNATANT LIQUID.
