Furfuryl alcohol is an important organic chemical raw material. It’s mainly used for the producing furan resin, furfuryl alcohol - urine aldehyde resin, phenolic resin. This kind of resin is widely used in foundry industry in modeling and core-molding. Furfuryl alcohol can also be used for anticorrosive resin, pharmaceutical raw materials, tartaric acid, plasticizer, solvents and rocket fuel, etc.
