ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing formaldehyde emissions from articles prepared from, or which otherwise comprise formaldehyde-emitting compositions, such as formaldehyde-containing resins, is described. The method relates especially to a method for reducing formaldehyde emissions from products such as cellulose laminates, permanent press (wrinkle-free) textiles, floral foams and ceiling or acoustical tiles, which involves isolating the article in an enclosed space with a formaldehyde scavenger, particularly a formaldehyde scavenger carried by a substrate.
