What are Phenolic Resins?
Phenolic resins are a kind of synthetic thermosetting resins. They were originally called as Bakelite. These are divided into Novolacs and Resoles. These are lightweight materials possessing excellent corrosiveness and are resistant to temperatures up to 300-350 °C. Some of the properties of phenolic resins include low humidity absorption, high dielectric strength, low toxicity, low smoke, and flame retardance.
Applications of Phenolic Resins:
Phenolic resins have a significant number of applications in many end-user industries. Phenolic resins are mainly used in wood adhesives, insulations, binders, molding compounds, laminates, phenolic foams and other applications. Snooker balls and balls for many table based games are made from phenol formaldehyde resin. The binding agent in the brake pads, brake shoes and clutch discs are made up of phenolic resin.
