Corrosion resistant countertops overview

Corrosion resistant countertop is a kind of material used in laboratory, which has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength, antibacterial, easy to clean and so on. It is usually made of materials with strong corrosion resistance, such as epoxy resin, phenolic resin, ceramics, granite, polypropylene, etc

Factors to choose corrosion resistant benchtops

Chemicals

The first thing to consider is the type, concentration, and PH of the chemicals commonly used in the laboratory. Different countertop materials have different tolerances to different chemicals, so it is necessary to choose countertop materials that can resist these chemicals.

Wear resistance

Countertops in the laboratory can be subjected to frequent wear, so it is necessary to choose materials with sufficient wear resistance to ensure their long service life.

Cleaning and maintenance

Different countertop materials have different cleaning and maintenance requirements. Some materials may require special cleaning methods or chemicals, while others may be easier to clean and maintain.

Temperature

The temperature in the laboratory is also an important factor in selecting countertop materials. Some countertop materials may not be able to withstand high or low temperatures, so you need to choose the right material according to the actual situation.

Aesthetics

Although the main function of corrosion-resistant countertops is practicality, their aesthetics are also one of the factors to be considered. Choosing a clean looking countertop that is easy to clean can enhance the overall image of the laboratory.

Main laboratory bench top materials

Epoxy sheets

It has good corrosion and wear resistance

Phenolic resin board

It is made of wood fiber impregnated synthetic resin by high temperature and high pressure board, the surface by special physical and chemical treatment, has the advantages of acid and alkali corrosion resistance, heat resistance, wear resistance, impact resistance.

Ceramics worktops

high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, insulation, high wear resistance, but not impact resistance, relatively low pressure resistance.

Polypropylene(PP) board

Very resistant to most chemicals.

Granite countertops

High temperature resistance, high hardness, not easy to deformation, good wear resistance, good load-bearing.

Lab furniture countertops material features

Epoxy resin countertops

Epoxy resin mesa has good corrosion resistance, wear resistance and heat resistance, the price is relatively low. They are suitable for most laboratory environments, but may be less resistant to some strong acid-base substances

Phenolic resin sheets

Wood fiber impregnated phenol alcohol resin made of high temperature and high pressure sheet, the surface by special physical and chemical treatment, with acid and alkali corrosion resistance, heat resistance, wear resistance, impact resistance advantages.

Ceramic benchtop

Ceramic countertops offer excellent corrosion, wear and antimicrobial resistance and are easy to clean. They are suitable for laboratories with high corrosion resistance requirements, but the price is higher.

Granite worktops

It is high temperature resistance, can withstand the temperature of more than 1000℃, high hardness, not easy to deformation, good wear resistance, good load-bearing.

Polypropylene (PP) sheets

Polypropylene countertops have excellent corrosion resistance, good resistance to most chemicals, and a relatively low price. They are suitable for general laboratory environments, but may not be suitable for high temperatures

Advice

For a specific laboratory environment, it is recommended to evaluate factors such as the type of chemical substances used in the laboratory, the concentration and the frequency of use of the laboratory, and then consult with a professional laboratory equipment supplier or engineer to select the most suitable corrosion resistant countertop material.
