Phenolic Based Phenachem Cement
This offers resistance to almost all non-oxidising acids, acidic salts and organic solvents as it renders.This phenolic based Phenachem Cement has an outstanding capacity to resist Hydrofluoric Acid when used with graphite filled system.This cement provides resistance to most of the inorganic and organic acid with exception of strong oxidizing acid, such as Nitric Acid and Chromic Acid.This may also withstand weak alkalies and salt solution.Industrially, it is a successful combative against pickling solutions of various nature.
