Chemical Resistant Worktops for your lab furniture projects

Chemical resistant worktops

Chemical resistant worktops are currently a popular parts in laboratory furniture. chemical resistant worktop requires chemical resistance under laboratory conditions, so several materials such as lab epoxy resin worktops , phenolic countertops, ceramic worktops are often used

The relationship between the composition of epoxy resin chemical resistant worktops and their corrosion resistance

Epoxy resin chemical resistant countertops are mainly composed of epoxy resin, quartz sand, curing agents, pigments, and other components. These components interact with each other and jointly endow the countertops with excellent corrosion resistance. As the main component, the epoxy group in the molecular structure of epoxy resin has good chemical stability and can resist the erosion of various chemical substances. The addition of quartz sand enhances the hardness and wear resistance of the countertops and also helps improve its corrosion resistance. The curing agent cures the epoxy resin to form a solid three-dimensional network structure, further enhancing the chemical stability of the countertops. The selection of pigments is also usually carefully considered to ensure that it will not affect the corrosion resistance of the countertops. For example, some high-quality pigments can provide a beautiful appearance without damaging the corrosion resistance of the countertops.

The application of epoxy resin chemical resistant countertops in chemical laboratories

In chemical laboratories, epoxy resin chemical resistant countertops play an important role. Since chemical experiments often involve various corrosive substances such as strong acids, strong alkalis, and organic solvents, the corrosion resistance requirements for countertops are extremely high. Epoxy resin chemical resistant countertops can withstand the erosion of these chemical substances and will not show obvious corrosion traces after long-term use. Whether it is for conducting routine chemical analysis experiments or handling highly corrosive reagents, this kind of countertop can provide a reliable working surface. For example, in organic synthesis experiments, various organic solvents such as toluene and ethanol are often used. Epoxy resin countertops can effectively resist the penetration and corrosion of these solvents. In acid-base titration experiments, the splashing of strong acids and strong alkalis will not cause damage to the countertops.
