Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) equipment has been used for over 30 years to help control corrosion in process equipment. The critical part in having a successful application is the choice of the resin. There is a wide range of resins that can be used to control corrosion. The choice of resin is determined by many factors. One factor that has to be considered is if fire retardancy is required. In this paper, fire test used to determine the degree of fire retardancy will be defined. The performance of three brominated fire retardant vinyl ester resins will be examined. These resins exhibit a wide range of mechanical properties and chemical resistance. Each resin has chemical environments where they
outperform the other two resins. Laboratory corrosion testing will be used to show the difference in performance of the three resins. Applications of these resins will be examined and the reason the resin was used will be discussed in this paper.
