What You Gain Through Furfural-Phenolics For D e e p D r a w Phenolic M o l d i n g
Compounds
Molding powders made with a blend of furfural-phenolic and formaldehyde-phenolic resins give long flow plus quick and complete setting at curing temperatures. Unique flow-cure ratios are obtained when you use furfural-phenolics in molding heavy sections and deep draw items. Good finish and high dimensional accuracy are other advantages associated with furfural-phenolics as part of the binder in your molding compounds. For Other Resin
Applications
The wetting and saturating ability of furfural-phenolic liquid and powdered resins are also valuable as binders in brake linings and friction elements, and in impregnating cellulosic fibers. The Quaker Oats Company does not manufacture furfural-phenolic resins, but is glad to put you in touch with suppliers. If you have any questions on furfural in reaction with phenol we shall be pleased to do our best to answer them. For more complete information on the characteristics of furfural itself simply write for bulletin 201. 3 3 7 H The Merchandise M a r t , Chicago 5 4 , Illinois Room 5 3 7 H , 120 W a l l St., N e w York 5, N e w York Room 4 3 7 H , M a i n P.O.
