Furfuryl Alcohol is a colorless liquid with a sweet, aromatic odor, derived from furfural, which is produced from agricultural byproducts like corn cobs and sugarcane bagasse. It is primarily used in the manufacture of resins, coatings, and adhesives due to its ability to polymerize and form strong bonds.
In addition to industrial applications, furfuryl alcohol is also utilized in the production of certain pharmaceuticals and as a solvent in various chemical processes. Its unique properties make it valuable in creating materials that require durability and resistance to heat and chemicals.
