Disclosed is both a method and composition for making a low formaldehyde emission panel. The panel includes a scrim that is typically formed from fiberglass bound together in a mat by a substantially formaldehyde free resin. The scrim is applied to the facing side of the panel by an adhesive that is also substantially formaldehyde free. The adhesive may also contain a formaldehyde scavenger. The formed panel has a low rate of formaldehyde emittance and can used as an acoustical ceiling panel. |
