Comment: This is a market activity. Each market represents the consumption mix of a product in a given geography, connecting suppliers with consumers of the same product in the same geographical area. Markets group the producers and also the imports of the product (if relevant) within the same geographical area. They also account for transport to the consumer and for the losses during that process, when relevant. This dataset represents the global market for Polyurethane adhesive (PUR adhesive or PUR glue). PUR glue is a formaldehyde-free adhesive which is used in engineered wood products such as crosslaminated Timber (CLT). Formaldehydes in indoor applications are often associated with concerns of their emissions to ambient air and effects on human health. In PUR adhesive isocyanate is used instead of formaldehyde. The hardening of PUR is induced by the moisture in the wood. The hardened glue is resistant to moisture and hydrolysis. This market is supplied by the following activities with the given share: polyurethane adhesive production, GLO: 1.0 generalComment of polyurethane adhesive production (GLO): This dataset represents the production of polyurethan adhesive (PUR adhesive, PUR glue). A standard yield of 0.98 is assumed for this process.
