Globe Carbon Industries are manufacturing Furan Resins as per IS & As TM standard.
Furan resins are usually used in heat curing thermosets, either in combination with urea-formaldehyde resin and phenol formaldehyde resins or with furfuryl alcohol and it is polymerized products of FurFuryl Alcohol.
Application
The principal applications of furan resins are in chemical plants. Specific uses include the lining in tanks Reactors, Receivers Acid and piping and acid alkali-resistant tiles and brick cements. The property of moisture resistance is used when paper honeycomb structures are treated with furan resins and subsequently retain a good compression strength and it can exposure to damp conditions.
Laminates have been prepared for the manufacture of chemical plants. They have better heat and chemical resistance than the polyester- epoxy- phenolic- or amino plastic-based laminates.
Another most popular application of Furan Resin is in Foundry Industry in Steel manufacturing for making cores.
