Abstract
A large number of resins have been synthesized by reacting cardanol, a constituent of cashewnut shell liquid, with formaldehyde and substitu ted aromatic compounds in the presence of acidic and basic catalysts. The resins have been characterized by IR spectra. They were shown to b e selective ion exchangers for certain metal ions. A batch equilibrium method was used for studying the selectivity of the metal ions. The t hermal behaviour of the resins has been studied and a plausible degrad ation mechanism has been suggested.
