Specialty resins for corrosion-resistant fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP)

• Derakane™ and Hetron™ resins provide superior performance and proven reliability in the following applications:

• Storage tanks and process vessels – chemically-resistant interiors and exteriors, superior to alloys
• Solvent extraction equipment – resistant to a wide range of corrosive chemicals
• Abrasion-resistant piping – considerably more durable han rubber-lined steel or alloys, at a fraction of the cost
• Electrowinning cells and covers – superior corrosion resistance inside and out
