Phenolic ResinSolid Phenolic Compact (SPC), commonly referred to simply as phenolic resintable top, is one of the most durable, cost effective, and aesthetic surfaces forheavy-duty lab workbenches and casework countertops.

Phenolic resin is ideal in various heavy-duty scientific applications, healthcarelab settings (e.g. urology and hematology labs), and water treatment plants. This material is also light weight in comparison to epoxy resin, durable and cost-effective.

Lab GradeChemical Resistant Solid Phenolic Compact (SPC) is one of the most durabledecorative surface materials available. SPC is composed of a combination ofelectron beam cured (EBC) decorative sheets and multiple layers of kraft papersaturated with phenolic resin that are fused together using heat and pressure ofover 1,000 psi.

The curing process transforms the resin into plastic by a cross-linking processthat converts the layers into a solid structure. Thermosetting creates strong,irreversible bonds that contribute to SPC's durability. In addition, the balancedconstruction of SPC increases its stability.

Supporting decorative surface material. SPC is composed of a combination ofdecorative sheets, multiple layers of kraft paper saturated with phenolic resinand a special fire-resistant barrier sheet that are fused together using heat andover 1,000 psi of pressure.

In addition, the fire barrier greatly reduces flame and smoke danger inemergency situations - especially in areas with limited escape routes such aselevators.This is used in building codes where they require a rating of Class A(or 1).

Though slightly less chemical resistant than epoxy resin, phenolic resin isa super-durable material that can handle high heat, moisture, and the wearand tear of regular use. Phenolic resin countertops are a popular choicefor lab casework water treatment facilities, agricultural research labs,urology labs, hematology labs, and a variety of other healthcare labapplications.

What To Avoid

How to Clean Phenolic ResinRegularly cleaning can be done using soft cloths and non-abrasive householdcleaning productsWater and soap solutions can be used to remove marring, and more difficult casesof marring can be addressed with small amounts of acetoneBecause of its moisture resistance, phenolic resin countertops respond well tosteam cleaningShould nicks, scrapes, dents, or scratches occur over time, phenolic resincountertops can be sanded down and refinished for a smooth surface

Do not use sharp tools or objects on phenolic resin surfaces, and avoid draggingheavy equipmentDo not use abrasives like bleach, abrasive powders, tile cleaners, steel wool, etc.Do not use wax or polishes containing wax
