FURFURYL ALCOHOL RESINS ARE PROMINENT IN CORROSION RESISTANT CONSTRUCTION Furfuryl alcohol resins are used exten sively in applications requiring chemical resistance. Lecite mortar made with fur furyl alcohol by Electro Chemical Engi neering and Mfg. Co., Emmaus, Pa., and used in t h e construction of t h e scrubbing tower p i c t u r e d a b o v e is a splendid example of such corrosion r e s i s t a n t material. This type of construction is popular in r> lants of organic chemical Producers. Installations based on furfuryl alcohol resin are resistant to acids, all alkalies and most organic liquids; in addition, high heat resistance and low porosity are inherent characteristics.
