Abstract

Abstract A modified aminoplast resin which is the condensation product of an aminoplast constituent and a carbonyl compound having added thereto, either before, during or after said condensation, 0.5 to 40% by weight, based on the solids contents of the finished modified resin and calculated as methylene bisformamide, of at least one member selected from the group consisting of methylene bisformamide and the methylolation products thereof and a laminated thermosetting decorative sheet employing said modified aminoplast resin as a resin impregnant for the decorative top layer carrier in the manufacture of the laminated thermosetting decorative sheet.
