Furfuryl Alcohol

Furfuryl alcohol is clear colorless organic liquid. It is primarily used for the synthesis of furans resins which are used in thermoset polymer matrix composites, cements, adhesive and coatings. It plays an essential role in the production of foundry sand binder, or as a fuel and wood treatment.
