Usage: | Pharmaceutical Industry Phenol has antiseptic properties and phenol is also the main ingredient of the Carbolic Smoke Ball. Phenol is the starting material in the industrial production of aspirin, weeder, and synthetic resins. Exposure of the skin to concentrated phenol solutions causes chemical burns which may be severe; in laboratories where it is used, it is usually recommended that polyethylene glycol solution is kept available for washing off splashes. Plastic Industry Phenol has been widely used in plastic industry, reacting a phenol with aldehyde, followed by curing and crosslinking. Phenol are usually compression molded and they have good strength and toughness, good arc resistance and other electrical properties, good resistance to solvents and high temperatures, and are bargain-priced. | |
Description: | Phenol [108-95-2] is the common name of hydroxybenzene, C6H5OH, and belongs to the class of compounds, commonly referred to as phenols, containing one or more hydroxyl groups attached to an aromatic ring. Phenol has also been calledcarbolic acid, phenic acid, phenylic acid, phenyl hydroxide, or oxybenzene. Thehistory of phenol goes back to 1834 when it was first isolated from coal tar and named carbolic acid. Until the advent of synthetic phenol production, just before World War I, coal tar remained the only source of phenol. The first synthetic phe-nol was produced by sulfonation of benzene and hydrolysis of the sulfonate. More than 99% of phenol produced worldwide is from synthetic processes. In 2001, worldwide phenol production was nearly 6.4 million metric tons. The predominant uses of phenol are in bisphenol A, Phenolic resins (qv), caprolactam (qv), aniline, and alkylphenols (qv). |
