Learn About Phenolic Resin

What Is Phenolic Resin?

Phenolic resin is a kind of synthetic plastic, colorless or yellowish-brown transparent solid, excellent in heat resistance, flame resistance, water resistance and insulation, good acid resistance, poor alkali resistance, good mechanical and electrical properties, easy to cut, divided into There are two types of thermosetting plastics and thermoplastics. By adding different components during synthesis, modified phenolic resins with different functions can be obtained, which have different excellent properties, such as alkali resistance, abrasion resistance, oil resistance, corrosion resistance, etc.

How to Use Phenolic Resin

Phenolic resins are used in friction materials, casting resins, refractory materials, molding compounds, foam plastics and other applications, as well as future high-performance coatings, inks, rubber tire additives, oilfield additives, polymer magnetic materials, shale gas resins, missile materials, new Application in new fields such as carbon materials, high-performance composite materials and military industry has made the demand for phenolic resin more and more. At present, my country has become the world's largest phenolic resin consumer market.

Here are two specific uses of phenolic resin:

1) Prolong the ship’s anticorrosive life

Hongdan or zinc chromate coatings are used in the bottom coatings and oil-soluble phenolic resin coatings containing cuprous oxide are used in the top coatings. The disadvantages of blistering and peeling of the coatings are greatly improved.

2) Used in auto industry

Hexion has focused on leveraging its thermoset resin technology for the production of high-strength, weight-saving composite parts in a wide range of automotive applications through its portfolio of advanced epoxy and phenolic resins, curing agents and additives.

Phenolic Resin Industrial News

● Phenol market moves marginally and weakly

As for the coming phenol market, players pay attention to the fundamentals. From the raw materials aspect, benzene and propylene markets are fluctuating marginally, which won’t support the phenol market. As for the downstream demand, phenolic resin producers purchase phenol on a need-to basis and the overall trading is not active. BPA units are running stably and the demand for phenol will be stable. As for the cyclohexanone market, the demand for phenol is limited.
