Description
Any of several thermosetting resins prepared by the condensation of Phenol with aldehydes (Formaldehyde, Acetaldehyde, Furfural, etc.). Phenolic resins were first made in 1872 when Adolph Baeyer reacted phenol with acetaldehyde. Bakelite phenolic resins were developed by Leo Baekeland beginning in 1907. Examples of phenolic resins are Bakelite, Novolac and Catalin. Phenolic resins are used for molded parts, as adhesives and as varnishes.
See also phenol formaldehyde.
