Cardanol

It can take place of phenol to produce epoxy hardener, liquid phenolic resin, liquid or pulverous thermoset phenolic resin.

Cardanol is abstracted and purified from natural cashew shell oil, and it contains abundant active monocomponent phenol and a little diphenol, and it can take place or partially take place of phenol to produce epoxy hardener, liquid phenolic resin, liquid or pulverous thermoset phenolic resin. It is widely used in various fields and environmental-friendly. Cardanol has the activity as the oil phenol, and it is a kind of single hydroxyl phenol which has long carbon chain that contains hydrogen. Petroleum phenol’s color is light; however, its price is high. With the soaring price of petroleum, petroleum phenol’s price is bound to continue to rise. Our company uses high-tech purifying skill to make the cardanol with light color, low viscosity, and small in the amount of free phenol.
