Thermosets
Furan Resin for Corrosion Resistance — Furan Resin
Furan resins are thermosets derived from furfural or furfuryl alcohol. They offer outstanding resistance to corrosive chemicals, including strong acids and alkalis, and maintain good properties at high temperatures, making them suitable for chemical processing equipment.
