POSTFORMING MFC phenolic kraft papers
POSTFORMING MFC phenolic kraft papers are used as a barrier in the production of melamine faced chipboard. The phenolic resins used in the impregnation of these papers are so highly reactive that a melamine low pressure press cycle results long enough to their polimerization.The usage of highly plastic phenolic resins allows us to impregnate papers with very high grammages creating various advantages on the conventionally used phenolic-melamine papers:

  • higher resistance to impact, due both to the greater thickness and to the plasticity of phenolic resins.
  • better core for the melamine decorative paper in the postforming process, since the thickness of the two papers results to be 0,2-0,3 mm.
  • better postformability.
  • better aesthetic result on the postformed profile.

Once pressed, the melamine faced chipboard can be posfformed with appropriate machines that first mill the board as indicated in the drawing, leaving intact the phenolic and melamine papers on the exterior side, and then bend them like a normal postforming machine.

LIRKRAFT phenolic paper

LIRKRAFT phenolic paper is a kraft paper impregnated with phenolic thermosetting resin. LIRKRAFT is used in the production of different materials:


  • STANDARD GRADE HIGH PRESSURE LAMINATES. In this case the weight is 160/225 gr/sqm or 205/310 sqm.
  • POST-FORMING GRADE HIGH PRESSURE LAMINATES. For this production, which requires high elasticity, is used only PIEFFE LIRKRAFT 160/225 gr/sqm heavy.
  • EXTERIOR GRADE HIGH PRESSURE LAMINATES. The main characteristics of AQUAKERN LIRKRAFT for exterior is the very low water absorbtion, which, when correctly processed, is reduced to under 1%.
The weight of the paper is 205/310 gr/sqm.
