INTRODUCTION:
FURANE is a two-part chemical setting Furan base mortar used for bonding acid resistant bricks and tiles. It is impermeable in texture and resistant to a very wide range of chemicals, including strong acids alkalis, oils, solvents and unaffected by temperature upto 170 C. FURANE”C” a 100 % carbon filled mortar is available where resistant to Hydrofluoric acid, fluoride salts and strong hot alkalis are required.
AREA OF APPLICATION:
FURANE is used for acid resistant bricks and tiles lining where maximum chemical resistance is required e.g. dyestuff, rayon, steel, thermal power stations, fertilizers, petro-chemicals, food-pharmaceuticals industries on locations like floors, drains, tanks, reaction & storage vessels, effluent treatment plants etc.

APPLICATION:
Ensure that bricks or tiles are clean, dry and stored at ambient temperature. Butter the bricks or tiles with mixed mortar ensuring uniform coverage, with a slight more in the center so no air pockets are formed while its installation. When using as only jointing mortar, it is essential that FURANE is filled to the full depth of the
joint. During and after completion of the application, the area must be kept dry and free from any other materials, which can affect setting and curing of FURANE.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE:
FURANE is recommended to use against very wide range of acids, alkalis, solvents, salts, oils and fats. However FURNAE is not recommended to use against HF, fluoride salts, and strong hot alkalis. For these
conditions, FURANE”C” 100 % carbon filled mortar is available. Also it is not recommended against strong oxidizing acids like chromic acid, Nitric acid and other oxidizing agents.
STORAGE & SHELF LIFE:
Always keep solution & powder in cool dry place in sealed container and bag, away from direct sun light, moisture etc. If stored as above, shelf life of solution: 1 year powder: 3-4 months.
PACKING Solution:
