everyday
Because of its wide, varied use in the manufacture of so many products, phenol is undoubtedly one of the most important chemicals used in American industry. For example, phenol is used in the manufacture of new bonding agents which make plywood an excellent building material for everything from the home itself to the picnic table in your yard. Phenol is fundamental in the manufacture of thermosetting type plastics used in television set cabinets and telephone receivers. It is also used in refining toluene and lubricating oils, and in the manufacture of lubricating oil additives. Many medicinal products—especially antiseptics—use phenol as a base, while phenolic dyes are utilized in the printing of textiles. Dow, a pioneer producer of synthetic phenol, is well equipped to satisfy your needs.
