    The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.

  3. Furan resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furan_resin

    Formation of furan resin from furfuryl alcohol. Components produced by sand casting. Furan resins serve as binders for the casting moulds. Furan resin refers to polymers produced from various furan compounds, [1] of which the most common starting materials are furfuryl alcohol and furfural. In the resin and in the cured polyfurfurol, the furan ...

  4. Furfural - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfural

    Furfural is used to make other furan derivatives, such as furoic acid, via oxidation, [30] and furan itself via palladium catalyzed vapor phase decarbonylation. [ 4 ] There is a good market for value added chemicals that can be obtained from furfural.

  5. Furan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furan

    Furan is a heterocyclic organic compound, consisting of a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Chemical compounds containing such rings are also referred to as furans. Furan is a colorless, flammable, highly volatile liquid with a boiling point close to room temperature.

  6. Melting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting

    Melting ice cubes illustrate the process of fusion. Melting, or fusion, is a physical process that results in the phase transition of a substance from a solid to a liquid. This occurs when the internal energy of the solid increases, typically by the application of heat or pressure, which increases the substance's temperature to the melting point.

  7. Furfuryl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfuryl_alcohol

    Furfuryl alcohol is an organic compound containing a furan substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. It is a colorless liquid, but aged samples appear amber. It possesses a faint odor of burning and a bitter taste. It is miscible with but unstable in water. It is soluble in common organic solvents. [4]

  8. Melting point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_point

    The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.

  9. Thermosetting polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosetting_polymer

    Left: individual linear polymer chains Right: Polymer chains which have been cross linked to give a rigid 3D thermoset polymer. In materials science, a thermosetting polymer, often called a thermoset, is a polymer that is obtained by irreversibly hardening ("curing") a soft solid or viscous liquid prepolymer (). [1]
